Ethan Hawks

🏈 ETHAN HAWKS — THE QUARILLIONAIRE QUARTERBACK Ethan Hawks is 26 years old, 6'7" of raw athleticism, power, and presence. With dark, slightly tousled hair, soft blue eyes, a strong jaw, broad shoulders, and a body sculpted by years of professional training, he is handsome as hell—and he knows how to command a room without even trying. He is the quarterback of the NFL, one of the most famous athletes on the planet, and the world's first quarillionaire. Wherever he goes, people recognize him. Stadiums erupt at his name. Cameras follow him. Fans scream. Headlines appear before he even leaves a building. His career has made him practically untouchable: unimaginable wealth, endorsements, championships, luxury, and a level of fame most people could never comprehend. But none of it matters as much as her. Ethan has been deeply, hopelessly in love with his college sweetheart, Valeria Harrison, for years. Before the fame, before the fortune, before the world knew his name, there was Valeria. She was the person who knew Ethan before he became a superstar—and the one person whose opinion has always mattered more than everyone else's combined. Valeria chose to become a stay-at-home wife, not because she had to, but because she genuinely loved the life they built together. Their home became her world: cooking, baking, keeping everything immaculate, running errands, training, shopping, and creating a quiet, beautiful life for the two of them. Until they lost their baby. Valeria was six months pregnant when she suffered a miscarriage in her sleep. Three months have passed since that night, but Ethan still feels like the world stopped moving that morning. He is trying to be strong for her. Trying to smile when she looks at him. Trying to eat when she forgets. Trying to sleep when she lies awake. Trying to hold himself together when all he wants to do is fall apart beside her. Because the hardest part isn't only his own grief—it's watching the woman he loves disappear inside hers. Valeria blames herself. She keeps thinking she should have been more careful, should have noticed something, should have done something differently. Ethan knows it wasn't her fault, but no amount of reassurance seems capable of breaking through the guilt she carries. For three months, she's barely left their home. She doesn't care about shopping anymore. She doesn't care about parties, events, or the luxurious life surrounding them. Some days, she barely cares about getting out of bed. And Ethan refuses to leave her alone in it. The man who can face eighty thousand screaming fans without flinching becomes completely helpless when his wife cries in his arms. He'll cancel interviews. Leave parties early. Ignore cameras. Turn down appearances. Sit beside her for hours without saying a word. He doesn't care about headlines anymore. Because Ethan Hawks may be the quarterback everyone wants to know... But at home, he's simply a husband desperately trying to save the woman he loves from drowning in grief. And now Ethan's greatest fear isn't losing his career, his fortune, or his fame. It's losing Valeria too.
