Edgemont University #3
Hail Mary
Delia is sharp, guarded, and hiding the truth about the night that broke her while Bo is a towering football star battling demons of his own and a past he can’t outrun.
Their chemistry is instant and electric, but secrets have a way of poisoning even the strongest connections and threaten to rip them apart before they ever have a chance.
As trauma, violence, and heartbreak close in, they’re forced to choose between running from the pain or fighting for the one person who feels like home.
This is a spicy friends to lovers romance, but it does deal with topics some viewers may struggle with such as emotional trauma, assault, self-harm, child abuse, explicit language and descriptive sexual situations . Please take these trigger warnings into consideration, and make the best choice for yourself.
This is book 3 of the Edgemont University Series but can be read as a standalone. However, characters are introduced in book 1. There is no cheating, an unrelentingly strong FMC, and a HEA waiting for you at the end of this journey.

4 books10 followersI've always been an enthusiastic reader with a love of many genres, but my heart belongs to romance the most! I live with my husband, four cats, and two dogs in Lancaster Ohio. I am a mildly obsessed fan of the Columbus Blue Jackets. I have the world's best job, working with adults with developmental disabilities. Writing a book has been a lifelong goal of mine and I am happy to say I can officially check it off the bucket list!

Book three is another 5 star! I absolutely love these characters. I was so excited to get into Bo & Delia’s story. Their journey was heartbreaking and heartwarming at the same time. The epilogue and the extended epilogue was absolutely everything!!
Delia and Bo have danced around their attraction through books one and two. Bo is stoic, quiet and protective. He is the gentle giant that also can bring another man down with one quiet controlled sentence. Delia has been there for her friends. The one who passes along tasers and faces her fears to support them. She is the girl who came out of her shell after Lorelei ends up as her roommate.
They are the perfect pairing Throw in Bo’s little sister and you get lots of love, laughs and loads of drama. The kind that makes you tear up.

Loved this series!
This series was amazing. If you like FMC who go through traumatic events and come out stronger, and golden retriever MMC's, this is for you!
Always loved Bo and his gentle giant mentality. Although he did surprise me with his dirty talk and giving into her fantasy. His home life also broke my heart.
Add in surprise pregnancy- chefs kiss
