Imagine: You swear you’re done with football players—especially your ex’s teammates. One look at Asher Knox, though, and it’s game over. He’s the star quarterback with a body built to break hearts and a devilish grin that sets your pulse racing.

You tell yourself it’s just physical. A fling you can keep off the radar—no drama, no attachments, no problem. But one late-night study session in the library becomes a stolen kiss… then another… until neither of you can resist the hunger that sparks every time you lock eyes.

Suddenly, “just one night” turns into mornings tangled in his sheets, whispered confessions in the dark, and secrets you can barely keep. The heat between you is scorching, but so are the consequences. His sports career is on the line. Your plans for grad school are looming. And if anyone finds out you’re hooking up with your ex’s star teammate? Let’s just say it’ll be one hell of a scandal.

But sometimes, you have to risk it all for the chance at something real. And the only question left is whether you’ll both come out winners—or wind up sidelined by heartbreak.

The Backup is a full-length, spicy standalone romance packed with heat, heart, some comedy, and plenty of drama—complete with a guaranteed happily-ever-after.

My name is Reed Walker. Yes, you might know me as the mega rock star with the biggest tour of the year and an unprecedented rise to stardom.

But this is a story about before I became the man I am today. It's about the wildest adventure of my life—one that started with a road trip I didnt want to take.

My best friend dragged me along to a music festival for a weekend, and by coincidence a girl wed met the night before ended up riding with us.

Charming, beautiful, and mysterious, she didnt give us her name, saying she was in the midst of a spiritual rebirth.

After a weekend at the music festival, with sparks flying, there was no denying Id become a changed man in many ways.

I had unexpectedly learned several of lifes most important lessons about dreams, love, and friendship.

Now I just have to figure out who she isand find her againbefore it's too late.

This is the ludicrous—but real—story of how I fell in love with a girl in a weekend, and she changed my life forever.

You might think this story is about me. But really?

It's about the girl who had no name.
