Gus Quinlan doesn’t do relationships. He does adrenaline, banter, and avoiding emotional messes. But when Mia storms back into his life, he’s blindsided by feelings he never planned for—and chemistry he can’t ignore.
They were supposed to stay in their own lanes, not wreck each other’s lives.
With everything on the line, Mia can’t trust her heart to a man who might not choose her in the end. But when a traumatizing event resurfaces and she’s caught in the fallout, their fragile second chance may not be strong enough to survive.
Afterall, love doesn’t come with a safety harness.
Clever Girl is a banter-filled, friends-to-lovers sports romance packed with found family, forced proximity, a brilliant heroine, emotional second chances, and high-heat chemistry
