Kennedy is the only woman on staff for the Windy City Warriors baseball team, determined to protect the professional reputation she's fought hard to build. A reckless Las Vegas night with the team's charming shortstop, Isaiah, spirals into an accidental marriage and a fake-dating arrangement neither of them expected to fall for. Perfect for TikTok romance fans craving humour, heart, and heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nKennedy has spent years earning her place in a male-dominated clubhouse, navigating a sexist lead doctor and the pressure of proving herself in professional sport. Her final season with the Windy City Warriors should be about steady routine and quiet ambition — until a whirlwind trip to Las Vegas with teammate shortstop Isaiah ends in a hazy memory, a ring on her finger, and a very real marriage certificate. To protect Kennedy's career and reputation, Isaiah proposes they lean into the story rather than run from it, staging a public relationship that was never meant to be real. What follows is a slow-burn, high-stakes fake-dating arc packed with witty banter, undeniable tension and the kind of emotional vulnerability that has made Liz Tomforde a reader favourite. As professional boundaries blur and true feelings surface, both Kennedy and Isaiah are forced to decide what they actually want — for their careers, and for each other. Told with Tomforde's signature mix of humour and heart, Play Along explores found family, workplace pressure, and the messy, human process of falling in love when you least expect it. As Book 4 in the interconnected Windy City Series, it can be enjoyed as a standalone while rewarding longtime fans with familiar faces from earlier instalments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteamy sports romance with genuine emotional depth and realistic workplace stakes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrong, career-driven heroine paired with an alpha-yet-tender hero.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFake-dating and accidental-marriage tropes handled with wit and warmth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrom the TikTok-viral Windy City Series, Book 4 of 5.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact paperback, ideal for commuting, travel, or gifting to romance fans.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLiz Tomforde is a New York Times bestselling author best known for the Windy City Series, an interconnected sports romance world praised for its healthy relationship dynamics and steamy, witty storytelling.
