Running Back To You: A Second Chance Football Romance (Hemlock Grove Romance Book 3)

Fake dating her NFL ex was a terrible idea. Especially when he has no intention of keeping it fake.

Delaney Hart has built a life she loves, with a thriving salon and roots firmly planted in her hometown. She’s done waiting for Mason Keller to choose her. And she’s definitely done letting him close enough to break her heart again.

Then his sister’s wedding brings them face-to-face—and Mason tells people they’re back together.

Apparently, he forgot to ask Delaney first.

The Cincinnati Riverhawks running back can handle pressure on the field. Facing the woman he lost is another matter. Years ago, he chased his NFL dream without asking her to come with him. Now she’s within reach, and he’s determined to earn the second chance she refuses to give him.

Delaney agrees to pretend. A few appearances, some convincing smiles, and absolutely no confusing their arrangement with a reunion.

But Mason remembers how to make her laugh. How to make her want him. And every lingering touch makes it harder to remember why she agreed to this—and why she needs it to end.

She won’t settle for being the woman he comes home to when football allows.

This time, if Mason wants her back, he’ll have to prove there’s room for her in the life he chose without her.

Running Back to You is a standalone, slow-burn, small-town football romance featuring second chances, fake dating, forced proximity, fade-to-black intimacy, and a happily ever after.
