Accidental Quarterback

by D.H. Benson

It’s almost game time; Creekridge versus Milton for the district championship. But the real action occurs off the football field. While opposing coaches resume a personal grudge match, players on both teams run fast and loose.

To settle a debt, Creekridge Quarterback Dan Spencer gets involved in a risky endeavor with a team mate. In the Creekridge neighborhood, where clandestine lovers meet and parents fund drug deals, everyone wants more of the good life.

Sixty miles away in Milton, it’s a battle for survival as Milton Halfback Billy Ray Suggs struggles with an abusive step-father and a wayward mother. When a pregnant woman wounds a star player the Milton Head Coach must negotiate with the police to keep his team intact.

Alluring women, illegal drugs, and insurance fraud… it’s just another week of football.

About the author

I was born and raised in Texas. My love of books and a desire to capture thoughts, ideas and stories turned me into a writer. I don’t live in a fantasy world and my characters don’t live fantasy lives. I try to capture the good, bad and humorous moments without wasting words.

If you ever played football on a hot day, sipped a cold one on the patio or partied until dawn, you'll enjoy my stories.
