Pity Please

Allie

I never planned to live in Elk Lake again, but here I am. I was going to get married, have a great family and career, and then I'd get my happily-ever-after stamped on the passport of my life. But Brett cheated and got his mistress pregnant with quadruplets. Karma was my consolation and I couldn't have been more satisfied by the outcome.

Just as I was busy with my fresh start, Noah Riley walked back into my life. I've always worshiped my best friend's older brother, but he never noticed me. Until that one day . . .

Noah

What coach gets demoted after taking their high school basketball team all the way to third in the state? Me, that's who. I could have gotten any other job in Chicago, but my anger and hurt pride caused me to accept a position at my alma mater. That's right, I'm the new basketball coach of the Elk Lake Crappies.

My goal is to make a splash with my new team, and then have my old school beg to hire me back. Of course, I won't accept until there's an appropriate amount of groveling, along with a substantial pay raise.

When I moved to Elk Lake, I never expected to run into my sister's best friend. Who knew Allie Rogers would make me reconsider my dream?
