Kitari Miller's past is shrouded in mystery and despair. It's obvious to those around her that something or somebody hurt her deeply. But Kitari will never tell. Her secrets are too painful and too shameful to share...even with those closest to her.

Omari Mann is the definition of laid-back. He's been in the league for 14 years, and he's at the point in his career where not much phases him. Not being traded. Not starting over on a new team...in a new city. Not even riding the bench.

He's chilling, just riding the wave.

Until Kitari is assigned to him as a "player liaison."

Now, he's intrigued...by both Kitari's beauty, and her light. But the dark cloud hanging over her head can't be ignored.

He wants to know what makes her heart so heavy? What makes her cry? What makes her laugh?

While Omari's willing to put in the effort to get the answers to his questions, can Kitari be open to the possibilities?

Can she trust Omari not only with her biggest secrets, but also with her heart?
