Unloved: The brand new sports romance follow-up to the TikTok sensation Unsteady

'Earnest, raw, and sexy' ELENA ARMAS

'Heartache wrapped in a happy ending' BAL KHABRA

The highly anticipated follow-up to the TikTok sensation Unsteady which follows hopeless romantic Ro and player – on and off the ice – Freddy as they form an unexpected bond.

Matt 'Freddy' Fredderic is all smiles – at least on the surface. On the ice, he’s the star left winger for the Waterfell Wolves with a stellar reputation in bed. But in the classroom, he’s retaking failed classes and struggling with dyslexia, dyscalculia and ADHD. Now tied to a National Hockey League contract upon graduation, Freddy needs help to pass biology.

Ro Shariff has a history of terrible luck in love – and now, she is Freddy’s tutor. Trying to convince herself that she’s very happy with her on-again/off-again boyfriend, Ro is desperate for real affection. As her tutoring sessions with Freddy lead to late-night phone calls and an understanding of each other’s pains, a friendship emerges between them. And, inevitably, a wistful secret pining hidden by them both.

Together, they will show each other how easy it is to love the right person, no matter their flaws.
