Austin Heat: THE ONE...Who Is Mine - Paperback

by Amari Nylix (Author)

The fourth installment in Amari Nylix's addictive series, Austin Heat: THE ONE...Who Is Mine will make you clutch your heart, clench your jaw, and shed a tear or two. Jake and Rakell navigate the peaks and pitfalls of lovers trying to reach their individual dreams while staying true to each other.

After a historic Super Bowl game, Jake and Dwayne are the darlings of the NFL. As they soak up the new fame, their bonds of friendship are tested when Dwayne decides to mentor the latest Condor draft pick, Jaxton, whose demons threaten the cohesive team they've built.

Jake sees the path toward everything he's ever wanted: his forever girl and a skyrocketing football career with all the accoutrements. He wrestles with watching Rakell twist herself around to accommodate the requirements of Hollywood.

Rakell walks away from her life as an escort to pursue her Hollywood dream. Can she justify the sacrifices that feel all too familiar in both professions to reach stardom? As she grapples with what it means to be someone's partner, to support their goals, she struggles desperately to maintain her identity.

Can she trust Jake to help her heal from her explosive and painful secret?

Emerging characters, Dwayne and Melissa, and their vulnerabilities bubble to the surface. Will this committed bachelor meet someone who'll alter his trajectory forever? Can Melissa's marriage survive her career and the added demand of parenting a child with disabilities?

If this were a TV show (it is not...yet ), think: a naughty version of Virgin River hooks up with Friday Night Lights. Add in a little Yellowstone toothpick-chewin' and you've got the vibe of this spicy Austin-based series which follows Jake and Rakell, along with a host of vivid and vibrant characters, who take root and linger, as they search for The One.
