Book excerpt: From USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Sucevic comes a steamy, enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity, new adult sports romance that is laugh out loud funny featuring a strong heroine and the cocky football player who falls first and hard for her. Mia Stanbury is the quintessential girl next door. Smart, beautiful, and determined. She’s got it all going on. Is it any wonder that she’s been on my radar for as long as I can remember? We’re talking middle school, folks. Fine, I’ll admit that I’ve made a few boneheaded mistakes as far as she’s concerned, but what can I say? I’m a dude. Sometimes I think with the wrong head. We’ll just chalk it up to one of the hazards of having a Y chromosome and leave it at that. But I’m older now. More mature. Sort of. Mia has spent all of high school and college keeping me at a distance. If she didn’t melt in my arms every time I put my hands on her, I’d almost think she was immune to my charms. Turns out that’s not the case. This is our last year at Wesley before we go our separate ways. Me to the NFL, her to law school. It’s now or never. I’m done playing games and allowing her to push me away. I was her first and I’ll damn well be her last. --- “If you want a sweet love story, this is the book to read” -Sylvia, GoodReads “The sizzling chemistry between Mia and Becket is like a slowly lit fuse and will eventually explode” -Anna, GoodReads “Beck has my heart bless him.

Book excerpt: What happens when the “Circle of Life” goes horrendously awry? Murder- we see it splashed across the tabloids all of the time. We try and escape reading about the horrors of appalling crimes by clicking out of such articles or by physically closing our newspapers. It’s easier not to think about it; it’s best to scroll down to another article; it’s better to turn the page. But what if you don’t have the option to “turn the page” and escape the atrocity of murder? What are you supposed to do if you’re Susanna, blissfully ignorant at home until you receive the phone call on that devastating night, telling you that your son has been murdered? What are you supposed to do if like Susanna, it’s your child’s smiling face splashed across the tabloids with corroding words like “Murdered”, entwined with his image? Who are you supposed to turn to, when like Susanna, you are the mother who has to face her son’s killer in Court? Susanna is facing the unendurable; the extent of her agony is incomprehensible. As a result, people don’t really know what to say to her. People appear to tire of the strained small talk and silences; one by one, those around Susanna are retreating. It is time for Susanna to reclaim her voice and finally be heard. The very least that we can do is listen.

We wrote this second book because you probably raced through the first one and thought, "damn, I'm still hard." No worries, our sick and twisted minds delivered once again.
