Publisher's Synopsis
Hard to Catch
When Winning the Game Means Risking the Heart
By Elena Wren
Ava Carter doesn't lose. Not on the field. Not in life. As the star wide receiver for her college team, she's earned every yard with grit and determination. But when cocky, record-smashing quarterback Noah Hunter transfers in, he's not just competition-he's a threat. And worse, a distraction.
Noah is used to playing the hero. Tall, fast, and unfairly charming, he's never had to fight for the spotlight-until Ava. Their rivalry is electric, their chemistry undeniable, and when sparks fly on and off the field, the line between love and war gets dangerously blurred.
What begins as a pact to push each other harder spirals into midnight practices, stolen glances, and a kiss that could cost them everything. With the championship-and their futures-on the line, one thing becomes clear: falling for your rival was never part of the playbook.
But sometimes, the heart has its own game plan.
Hard to Catch is a fiery, enemies-to-lovers sports romance packed with humor, heart, tension, and heat. Perfect for fans of Mariana Zapata, Elle Kennedy, and Emily Henry.
