After a chance courtside encounter, a fake relationship between a rising influencer and a WNBA star gets a little too real in this swoony sapphic romance.
Chelsea has never cared about sports. But when she's invited to sit courtside at a New York Rebels game, she welcomes the break from her usual routine. What she doesn't expect is a basketball nearly colliding with her face—or the six-foot-four hottie who jogs over, flashing a heart-stopping grin, to retrieve it.
Adrienne "AD" Daniels is a player on and off the court, notorious for their inability to stay in a relationship. Still, something about Chelsea sticks with them—even though their instant connection can't bring AD to offer more than one night.
But AD's agent makes a pitch: Chelsea should pretend to be AD's girlfriend. It's a strategic move. AD, hoping to retire after this season, needs to lock down some brand deals—but their identity as a Black, nonbinary lesbian with a messy dating history makes sponsors wary. Chelsea, a sex-positive influencer, is ready to take her platform to a new level, and this feels like the perfect next step. With Chelsea's network and AD's star power, they could both strengthen their public images. Once the season ends, they'll go their separate ways.
As the ruse starts to work and their connection deepens, Chelsea finds herself on unsteady ground. Falling for AD wasn't part of the plan, and if she follows her heart, she just might lose her future she's finally starting to build.
