The Wall Of Winnipeg And Me

Vanessa Mazur is done. After two years of being the invisible backbone for the National Football Organization's top defensive end, she’s finally choosing herself. Her tenure as a personal assistant was only ever meant to be a stepping stone, and she’s officially reached her limit of washing extra-large jerseys for a man who couldn’t be bothered to offer a "good morning," let alone a "happy birthday."

Aiden Graves, famously known as the "Wall of Winnipeg," is a legend on the field and a fortress off it. To his fans, he’s a god; to Vanessa, he’s the most stoic, thankless boss in professional sports. She’s ready to leave the extra-long hours and the cold silences behind to pursue her own dreams, until the Wall shows up at her front door.

For the first time in his career, Aiden is the one doing the chasing. Shocked to find the normally "Walled-Off" athlete actually letting his guard down, Vanessa is even more stunned by his proposal. He isn't just asking her to return to her old desk; he’s proposing a new, highly "personal" arrangement that pushes their professional relationship into completely uncharted territory. Now, Vanessa has to decide if she’s willing to step back into the shadow of the man who always gets what he wants, or if the "Wall" is finally ready to let her in.
