Description
Mallory Greenleaf had given up on chess. Four years ago, the game destroyed her family, so Mallory focused on her mother, sisters, and the job that allowed her to support her family. For the sake of a friend, she agreed to play one last time in a charity tournament, and on the other side of the chessboard was not just anyone, but world champion Nolan Sawyer. Everyone is shocked that the infamous Kingslayer was defeated by an unknown girl. Mallory would have liked to take her winnings and leave. But the victory brings her back to chess and opens the door to a world of big money prizes. And for some reason, Mallory is drawn to this golden boy chess player who says to her: “Touched – move.” It seems that even Nolan Sawyer, known for his beautiful, brilliant strategies, cannot predict the outcome of their game in something more than grand chess…
