BLURB:
Winnie Halliday is life's greatest winner…
She has money, power, influence, and a family that loves and supports her no matter how impulsive or improper her choices. Winnie has longed to step out of the shadow cast by the Halliday name, but even gilded cages are hard to break. After several years chasing the one who got away, her childhood crush turned infamous footballer, Kyser Kent, Winnie's about to return home. It's time for her to take on the role she was born to play: the first female CEO of her family's multi-billion-dollar business. It's a massive challenge, but nowhere near as difficult as explaining to Ky and the relentless press that the reason she wasn't alone upon her return could be traced back to a heated one-night stand in Portugal—an encounter her now downtrodden fling can hardly recall.
Kyser Kent is the world's biggest loser…
He has no money, no friends, and a reputation tarnished beyond repair. His dream career of playing professional football overseas was sidelined by bad luck and some seriously questionable decisions. From the moment he returned home, the familiar cage of poverty and disgrace trapped him behind familiar rust-covered bars he longed to escape. The thought of starting over makes him want to give up before he even begins digging himself out of suffocating debt and overwhelming disappointment.
Winnie saved Ky from himself when he hit rock bottom once before. Little did he know that night would tie him to the heiress for a lifetime and give him an undeniable reason to fight for himself—and for the family he never thought he'd have.
This is a spinoff of The Monsters Duet. Mental health and mental heath disorders, suicide, domestic violence and loss of a child.

REVIEW:
I started this story and then thought no, and I went back and read the first two books. And now I get it. I totally wanted Winnie’s story 😊
Winnie Halliday, she’s a heiress and like all the wealthy heiress’s she has family drama galore. She’s been abroad for a while, raising her son, but she came home to take her place as the CEO of her family’s family empire.
Coming home doesn’t just mean dealing with the business, media, and family, but also with the father of her son, Kyser. Her childhood crush, she had a one night stand with. And another little secret, he doesn’t know that his a dad.
Kyser, was a famous footballer, but things have not been going great for him. Debt, damaged reputation, and bad luck… Hmm really not going great.
This story was so great. These two each has their own issues and some issues between them to overcome. But what didn’t change was their attraction for each other. And how they both grew into their new normal.
Romance, banter, and amazing chemistry between these two were so great, if only they could get out of their own ways. I haven’t read a Jay Crownover story in so long, but it was definitely like coming home to an old friend 😊Enjoyable read 😊
