How hard can it be?Answer: Hard.Before long, Harper is caught up in a world of lineups, stats, and trades. And her vow to put some distance between herself and the opposite sex is severely tested. Especially when she catches the eyes of her two biggest competitors in the league. There's J.J., a local celebrity determined to win the fantasy championship no matter what.
