Riley’s Mate by Kathryn Kelly

Ten years ago, Riley Harrison was on a path to forever with her high school boyfriend. After a long-awaited night of passion, she shared her deepest secret with him. When she shifted in front of him, his look of shock sent her packing to New York where she devoted her career to helping couples make decisions about having children.

Tyler Vargas made the mistake of a lifetime ten years ago when he let Riley walk away. But he hadn’t expected her to morph into a white Bengal Tiger! Only months after being picked to play with the St. Louis Cardinals, he suffered a career-ending injury that sent him back home. The last woman he expected to see there was the one woman who got away.

Are they ready to accept that the love they never forgot may have been determined by fate? Will he love her and let her walk away again? Is it worth risking her heart a second time?
