Almost Mine

Some love stories are written in the stars.
Theirs was written in the spaces between almost.

Kelsey Hayes spent years trying to forget Eli “Ox” Samuels—the small-town football star who once held her heart in his hands before walking away from it. Back then, football was his escape. His future. The only thing standing between him and becoming the kind of man he never wanted to be.

Now Ox is one of football’s fastest-rising stars, carrying the weight of fame and expectations on his shoulders. But no amount of success has ever been enough to erase the girl he left behind.

When an unexpected reunion throws them back into each other’s lives, old feelings return with a force neither of them is prepared for. Because some people never really stop belonging to you—even after years apart.

But the past still lingers between them.

So do the choices that tore them apart the first time.

And this time, loving each other might cost them even more.

Almost Mine is an emotional second-chance sports romance about first love, heartbreak, healing, faith, and finding your way back to the person who always felt like the one.
