Description
Don’t miss out on the stunning DELUXE LIMITED EDITION while supplies last. This breathtaking collectible is only available on a limited first print run in the US and Canada only, a must-have for any book lover.
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Tracy Wolff comes a fierce, emotional romance about surviving the spotlight, outrunning your past, and choosing love when everything says you shouldn’t.
They call her the Black Widow. A pop star. A tabloid tragedy. A girl who set the world on fire—and got burned in return.
But Sloane Walker doesn’t care what they say. Not anymore. The headlines, the hashtags, the rumors that never die? Let them come. She’s survived worse—like the ex who tried to kill her and the fans who blamed her for surviving. These days, she’s armor and eyeliner, singing songs that hurt and pretending they don’t.
She’s halfway through a sold-out tour and dangerously close to unraveling when a meet-and-greet throws her into the path of Mateo Sylvester—a rising star quarterback with a devastating smile and a grandmother who’s Sloane’s biggest fan. He’s got stadiums at his feet and the press eating from his hand. She’s got a flask full of sweet tea, a voice full of ghosts, and no patience for golden boys with good intentions.
She tells herself it’s just a photo op. Just another handshake. Just another charming fan with perfect cheekbones and no idea what it means to bleed for your art.
But Mateo sees more than the stage persona. He sees the cracks in her smile. The songs she’s too scared to write. The girl underneath the glitter, still fighting to stay.
They weren’t supposed to fall. Not in the spotlight. Not when the world is watching. And definitely not when the people closest to them would do anything to keep them apart.
This isn’t a fairy tale. It’s a slow-motion car crash. And if they’re not careful, it might just cost them everything.

This is why I don’t read romances. They are too beautiful and too real and I love them too much.
I loved everything about this book. From the broken and battered characters to the slight mystery to the love. Everything was perfect.
I’ve never read a football/pop star romance before but I can confidently say I need more.
Please read this one. And make sure your tissues are near when you do.

It Happened On A Sunday is a heart-wrenching, emotional rollercoaster that will restore your faith in the resilience of the human spirit and the redemptive power of love. At its center is Sloane—the enigmatic pop icon dubbed “The Black Widow” by the media, infamous for the tragic deaths of two former boyfriends. She's seen as toxic by the world, but inside, she’s a wounded soul cloaked in emotional armor so thick, lowering it could break her entirely.
Then comes Mateo Sylvester, the NFL’s golden boy quarterback, who sees through her facade and dares to reach the real Sloane—the woman the headlines forgot. But after being shattered by betrayal, can she risk love again?
I felt Sloane’s pain so deeply. She was terrified to reveal her true self, yet Sly made her want to try—to be vulnerable, to choose happiness, even when the public wanted a different version of her. Watching her blossom and reclaim her strength was powerful. She was fierce, bold, and brave, and Sly only made her shine brighter.
Sly, too, carried invisible wounds, projecting confidence while hiding his own hurt. His love for Sloane was instant and intense—he saw her break on stage and fell for her completely. His loyalty, protectiveness, and gentle spirit made him the perfect counterbalance. He knew when to push, when to pause, and his heart was exactly what Sloane needed. Together, they didn’t just fall in love—they healed.
This story is breathtaking. The angst, the emotion, the slow burn of healing—it’s all beautifully captured. The author makes you feel every moment, every tear, every triumph. And that ending? Pure magic. I closed the book with tears in my eyes and the widest smile on my face. It Happened On A Sunday isn’t just a love story—it’s a bold declaration that healing and happiness are worth fighting for, even when the whole world is watching.
