Kicking Hearts: A Kicker’s Unlikely Love Story

Ethan Rhodes has spent his career in the margins. While quarterbacks and wide receivers soak up the spotlight, he’s the quiet kicker no one mentions unless something goes wrong. Then an unexpected game-winning kick shoves him into the headlines, and the cameras finally turn his way with questions he’s never learned how to answer.

Maya Daniels built her name by digging past the myths around sports icons. Sharp, relentless, and unflinching, she’s the journalist every agent dreads. When she sits down with Ethan, she expects another polished interview subject. Instead, she finds someone fiercely private, marked by old wounds, and strangely magnetic. His calm precision on the field pulls her in… and his silence only makes her want to know more.

As the season intensifies, so does the heat between them. Behind closed doors, their connection flickers through shared vulnerability and long looks that last too long. In public, rumors spread, scandals erupt, and buried secrets threaten Ethan’s fragile resurgence. Maya has to decide between the story that could define her career or the man who might finally see past her armor.

In a sport ruled by fame, pressure, and impossible standards, what happens when the most overlooked player becomes the one person she can’t let go?
