The Penalty, The Penalty

He's willing to risk everything for her... Xavier Maddox I'm adored worldwide. England's number one. The best goalkeeper to ever play the game. Arrogant. Talented. Unattainable. Nothing mattered to me more than football. Until her... Victoria Chase lit a fire in me I refuse to extinguish. Now I'm forced to face a truth and a past I no longer wish to deny. Losing control means I could lose everything. It almost happened once before. The difference this time? I'm not fighting it. Victoria Chase Falling in love was never in the cards for me. Trapped by the guilt of a family tragedy, I couldn't imagine letting anyone in. Until him... Xavier Maddox ignited a reality I didn't think I deserved. Love. Passion. Dark desires. We met by chance, and now fate won't let us go. Our past is irrevocably entwined. He's hell bent on burning down the world for me. But to right this wrong could shatter everything.
