Adelaide Thibodeaux grew up with Dempsey Reynaud, and she’s worked for him for years.

Just as she’s ready to strike out on her own, she’s stuck in a fake relationship with her boss, biding her time . . .

But soon Adelaide faces a second blow: she’s actually falling for the man! Can a relationship founded on a lie become the real deal? Or will they fumble before the end zone—and stay in the friend zone?
