My life plan is ace my pre-med classes, take care of my little sister, and ignore distractions.
I don’t have time for dating. And I definitely don’t have time for some golden-haired football god with a smile that makes my stomach flip.
But after one night with Lucas Allen—Lakemont University’s star wide receiver and campus heartbreaker—my orderly world tilts off its axis.
Even more so when I’m assigned as his tutor. Now, I’m supposed to be helping him save his scholarship, not falling for his charm. I’m supposed to be the responsible one, not the one stealing kisses from him any chance I get.
And I’m definitely not supposed to be staring at two pink lines on a pregnancy test.
It’s just my luck that I’m carrying the child of a man who lives for parties and fleeting relationships, shaped by a convict father he can’t escape.
Father material. No way.
Yet, despite everything logical in my brain screaming to run, my heart keeps whispering his name.
I know what I need to do—so why does my heart ache to imagine a life without him?

Mazzie and Lucas are such a great couple. What starts as a trip into a pool ends up so much more. The first hookup happens early but their relationship grows over time. Once they realize they are meant to be together forever they are all in.
The characters are so real, I can't wait for more of the Football family.
Absolutely loved this story! As expected this author did not disappoint. This story approaches a lot of tough situations in a great way. Loved Lucas and Mazzie and the way they approached difficult circumstances
Undeniableby S.B. Alexander follows the story of Wide Receiver for Lakemont Football team Lucas ‘Hellion’ Allen and Maserati ‘Mazzie’ Meyers in this Opposites Attract, He Falls First, Found Family, College Sports Romance. All through the telling of their dual POVs. And although it is the second book inLakemont Universityseries, it can be read as a Standalone.
The way Mazzie and Lucas seemed to fall head over heels for each other was just too cute and oh so adorable. Sure it was fast and quick, but when you know, you know. And it was showcased in every interaction between the two, as well as hearing it from them individually in their own inner monologue within their POV chapters. As well as hearing it from their friends and family who too could see they were meant to be.
When it came to the overall storyline, it had an easy, ongoing flow, from the way the narrative just seemed to have you navigating along. Keeping you holding on with every page turn, particularly with some surprises along the way, some of which were unexpected to say the least.
“we’d gone through bumps and bruises...”
But just like Mazzie said, her and Lucas did have to go through their fair share of bumps and bruises in their relationship journey together. As well as individually too, considering all that was going on in their personal lives with family members. Yet in a way it bought them closer, since they could understand each other too on a deeper level, from relating when it came to the shared matters, given the commonalities of both Mazzie and Lucas having been disappointed and let down by particular family members. Ultimately showing that it wasn’t just their chemistry both physical and emotional, that proved they were meant to be.
I liked the way author S.B. included the family through subplots, which in turn connected back to the main storyline, given the importance from the significance it played into both Mazzie and Lucas’s lives.
All in all,Undeniableby S.B. Alexander ended up being a read that I thoroughly enjoyed. Especially when it came to following the whirlwind romance of Mazzie and Lucas who gave you all the feels and much more in their journey together.
*I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Undeniable ( Lakemont University Series Book 2 ) Have you ever picked up a series that just sucked you right in , in ways you never would have expected ? That had you falling in love with each and every character / couple from the very first book and where you found yourself completely immersed in the world the author has created ? That had the ability to make you feel so many different emotions you never saw coming? Everything from smiling and laughing out loud , to crying like a baby to actually being speechless at times and screaming outta pure frustration during others . That had you cheering so freaking hard from start to finish, Well Undeniale may only be book 2 but I’m already completely addicted . Mazzie and Lucas finally get their turn to shine and omg they really were absolutely everything together. Two people who have totally opposite dreams . Lucas ‘s dream of playing football and going pro . And our heroine Mazzie pursuing her dreams of graduating and becoming a doctor. Somehow they end up being the perfect match, they compliment each other so well . I adored getting to know both . Getting to watch them overcome the obstacles and all the differences between them and fall head over heels in love .
Undeniable by S. B. Alexander wrecked me in the most achingly beautiful way.
From the moment he called her Midnight and she called him Hellion, I knew this story would live rent-free in my heart. Their connection is magnetic—raw, messy, and so heartbreakingly real. Every stolen glance, every whispered name carries the weight of their pain and the promise of something healing just beneath the surface.
They didn’t just fall in love—they saved each other. Piece by piece, they mended the cracks the world left behind, proving that even the most shattered hearts can find their way back to light.
S. B. Alexander delivers passion, pain, and redemption in one unforgettable love story. I devoured every word, cried more than once, and by the end, I was left completely undone.
If you believe in love that burns, heals, and stays with you long after “The End,” Undeniable is exactly that—utterly, perfectly, undeniable. 💔🔥✨
“There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.”
🏈This book focuses on dreams, love, heartbreak, family dynamics and taking a leap and praying someone catches you when you fall.🏈
🏈Lucas and Mazzie’s story is beautiful and will melt your heart. They weren’t looking for each other but fate had other plans for them both. No matter what obstacles stood in their way they never faltered from their dreams. Together they would overcome everything. I loved every minute of this book. The banter was bantering. Mazzie is a spitfire that speaks her truths. Lucas knows what he wants and shoots for the stars. Life was never easy for them both but they came out stronger because of what life had in store for them. S.B Alexander never disappoints when expressing Love conquers all and dreams are meant to be chased.🏈
Maserati Meyers but goes by Mazzie has a life plan - Graduate Lakemont University - Start Pre-Med and become a Doctor.
Lukas Allen Graduate Lakemont University - Get draftered - Play Pro Football.
Both study focus - both career driven - both not into serious dating - both have family drama and the one thing that is Undeniable is the chemistry between Mazzie and Lukas.
Sometimes when you have a life plan, that plan sometimes will throw you a curve ball, a curve ball that changes for Mazzie, Lukas and there families but in the end will work out for all, with an added little bonus.
Everything happens for a reason...
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
Undeniable By S.B. Alexander Main Characters: Mazzie and Lucas I voluntarily and honestly reviewed this book without bias or persuasion from the author. 5 out of 5 stars Mazzie plans on graduating from Lakemont University on her way to becoming a doctor and Lukas is hoping to play Pro Football. It looks like to there might be a hiccup in their plans. This is the second book in this series. There were a number of surprises in their story and great chemistry. These two have to juggle so many things going on in their lives but they somehow manage to juggle them well. There is also plenty of angst and drama in each of their lives. These two are old and wise before their time. I loved the story and the characters. Great job!
Undeniable is the latest novel by S. B. Alexander and tells the story of college wide receiver, Lucas, with dreams of playing in the NFL and Mazzi,e whose goal is to be an emergency room physician. Both come from families with a jailbird parent. Desperate to escape that stigma, these 2 college students hook up for one night of bedroom gymnastics. Lucas, smitten by smart and beautiful Mazzie, desires a more meaningful relationship; she, on the other hand, fears becoming her mother, whose track record with men is deplorable. As the 2 of them navigate their new found feelings, they will face challenges neither expected. S. B. Alexander is a talented author who knows how to tap into her readers' emotions to deliver another knockout punch with Undeniable! 4 stars
Five stars all around for this story filled with characters that grew up far before their time, are shouldering far more than they should while in college, all while maintaining grades, being on teams, being the bread winners for the family, and caring for a mother or sibling. Kismet brought them together via an accidental chance bumping/crashing into one another at a party. Was it lightning striking 😉?
Mazzie + Lucas are not the typical college kids. These two have both been through some things, and have far too much on their shoulders. Yet somehow they each bring back a lightness to one another. Maybe even bringing back a spark of hope? Watching their journey unfold was thoroughly joyful to watch. It felt like spending time with old friends right away. Here's hoping we *possibly* get another book with these characters in it? Or at least one with younger sister Kaylee 😉.
Watching them learn to let their defenses down, open their hearts, learn to jump and face the fear was fun to see. I truly can't wait to see more....if we are lucky. Mazzie + Lucas are pure magic right away. There are small levels of danger, a possessive ex, more than a few trials and tribulations. These all go well beyond "growing pains" and our two lead characters handle each situation masterfully. Thank you for this gift. Their journey is definitely worth taking. I highly recommend it.
Another fab story from SB Alexander. Love her college/university collections and this is no exception. Mazzie and Lucas appear quite different initially - one is seemingly well off and has a glowing footballing career in front of him, the other has to work multiple jobs, has practically raised her sister and is desperately focused on studying toward a career in medicine. But - not everything is quite that straightforward! Both have dysfunctional parents and have faced their challenges as a result. After an initial meeting at a party, their relationship starts to change with some unexpected road blocks and surprises along the way. Well worth a read.
I absolutely loved this book. Undeniable was so good and it was my all time favorite trope, sports! This was the second book in the Lakemont University series. Follows Lucas and Mazzie. The chemistry between the main characters was undeniable. I thought this book was so well written and easy to read. This definitely kept me reading, there was some suspense and angst. I didn’t want this book to end, hopefully we will get more books in this series! Definitely recommend!!!
Lucas and Mazzies first encounter is falling into the pool. Theres and attraction between the two but they are pretty focused on their futures his, pro football and her medical school. They can't help how the beginning to feel for other. Their chemistry is hot. Their future is put to the test when she finds out she's pregnant. They have to make some hard decisions. There's a good ending to this book!
What’s not to like ? Nothing, everything is just perfect. Storyline is great, characters have beautiful connections and exploding chemistry. It’s a lot of drama,angst will tug at your heart as you will be turning pages to find out what next. It’s very well written sport romance so just start reading. Definitely recommend reading this. I received this book as ARC and my review is voluntary.
Maserati Meyers is a cool name for a cool girl. She goes by Mazzie, though.
Lucas Allen plays football at Lakemont University and is best friend's with Ryker.
I actually liked this one. Mazzie and Lucas had instant chemistry, which led to some spice! Or should I say A LOT of spice.The storyline flowed nicely. There were quite a few surprises as well, but you'll need to read to find out.
Ryker is in this book too, so if you are a fan you get some Ry time🥰
