Synopsis
“Professional athletes are pillars of their respective
communities. They are heroes in the eyes of boys and girls and are expected to
conduct themselves in a manner that positively represents their community.”
The public loves a good scandal. Seeing someone fall
from the pinnacle of success makes a great headline. No one knows that better
than I do. What started out as a promising career in college football, spiraled
into scandal and shame.
But being a hero is easier said then done. Especially
when there are those who expected to see the great Brody Madden fail. I craved
nothing except being the best—willing to do anything to prove them wrong. But I
went too far, and I tried too hard, and it broke me.
“At the time of going to print, Jordan Elliott was
unavailable for comment.”
I met Brody Madden in my senior year of college. An
Australian native on an international scholarship, I was the female soccer
sensation with stars in her eyes and no room for a hotshot wide receiver with a
chip on his shoulder.
But a heart bursting with ambition and a driving fire
to succeed isn’t made of stone. I became his strength, his obsession, and the
greatest love of his life. Only I wasn’t there when he needed me most.
This is a story about love and a game that takes
everything. Where the path to glory is paved with sacrifice. Where pressure
makes you, or breaks you, and triumph is born in the ashes of failure. Where
two people’s end game will change everything.
