What harm could one charity contest be? Maverick Donahue, the nation's top shortstop, is on the brink of a contract expiration. He's playing his heart out on the field, determined to secure another deal with the Mountaineers. But when a contest winner's single word sends shockwaves through the baseball world, everything changes. Why would a fan reject the best player in the nation?
Finley Dallas is a woman haunted by childhood trauma, a past that keeps her confined to her property. She finds comfort in her numbers, watching her favorite player on TV, and listening to the park's fireworks. But when she's given a chance of a lifetime, she's forced to confront her fears and step out of her comfort zone. Will her time with Maverick help her break free from her self-imposed tower, or will a single press conference send her spiraling back into her past?
What was meant to be a fun fan experience quickly turns into a journey of self-discovery in the midst of the chaos. Can Maverick and Finley weather the media storm? Or will they be called out at home?
