'For a chance of happiness, will they follow their hearts?

'Jed Delaney is a household name and considered one of the best ruckmen in the AFL. But after a devastating career-ending injury, he’s faced with returning to the small town of Glengarrick to figure out what comes next.

'Georgina Purcell always wanted to leave Glengarrick, but ten years after Jed left town taking a secret with him and breaking her heart in the process, she’s still stuck wondering what her future holds.

'When Jed walks back into her life acting like nothing has changed, sparks fly. But their feelings for one another can’t change Jed’s painful secret…that Georgie might be the reason for his retirement from the game he loves.

'Will the lure of a new opportunity within the AFL be too much for Jed to walk away from? Or can he leave it all behind for a chance of happiness with Georgie?'

'Should you keep score when it comes to love?

'As an adopted only child, Annabel Norton, has always wanted children of her own. Having recently retired from playing semi-professional football for the AFLW, now would be the perfect time—except she’s still reeling from the failure of her last relationship.

'Special Operations Group police officer, Ben Naylor, loves the idea of a family, but with two marriages under his belt, he figures commitment isn’t for a man like him. Especially as he needs time to process all he’s lived through in his job. That’s why it makes no sense that he falls head over heels for Annabel the very first time he sees her. He does the right thing and keeps his distance…and then she moves in next door.

'As their feelings become impossible to deny, Annabel starts to think that they might be made for each other. That is until she learns about an unexpected secret in Ben’s past. For a chance at happiness, can she open her heart and accept that a future with Ben could involve more than children of her own?'
