But in the small town of Keeneston, he loves being just Knox. In college, all the girls had chased him except one. Now the chase was tiring.

Someone was messing with her job at Nico Saccone's SACC1 Sportsbook, and she needed to find out who before she became the prime suspect in an illegal gambling ring. This time Knox wasn't going to fumble his second chance with Quinn. He was determined to help her, but clearing her name could cost him his career, their chance at love, and maybe even his life.
