Hail Marry

His ‘hail marry’ proposal to a near-stranger might just be the wildest play of his entire career

LUCA

One enormous detail stands between me and my dream of being drafted to the NFL: a valid visa. With my student visa expiring and a past, unfortunate run-in with the law disqualifying me from the one I need, I’ve run out of options.

Until I snatch a stranger on the street from being hit by a truck.

TORI

When someone saves your life, a “thank you” card doesn’t quite cut it. So, when I find out Luca’s only path to the NFL is finding a wife, how can I not offer? It’s only a formality anyway.

But paperwork turns out to be just the beginning of it. Playing pretend leads through a maze of immigration scrutiny and a lot more time together than either of us planned on. The hardest part of all, though, might be keeping my heart on the sideline in a game with multiplying and intense real-life consequences.
