Interception (2nd Edition)

by Emily Louise

Everything was just fine. Until he showed up. Then my world came crashing down around me.
Jackson Bentford was something from my past, a mere memory of a love that I left behind in college.
Five years later, I moved on to bigger and better things. I’m with a man I love. I’m advancing in my career at ESPN. My life is exactly the way I want it to be.
Then he strolls back into my life without a warning, spinning my world on its axis.
Now playing professional football in Las Vegas, I’m constantly surrounded by Jackson’s presence. What’s worse is that he wants to be friends, find closure. Even after all this time and all of the pain, I can’t say no.
But our friendship is merely a façade, one that I didn’t recognize is hiding the ultimate truth. A truth that can’t see the day of light unless I want more secrets exposed.
I should’ve listened to the warning bells. I should’ve never agreed to be friends with my ex-boyfriend, because now, I’m left to make one decision—one that will completely alter my life.

About the author

Emily Louise is an indie author from Ohio. By day, Emily works as an environmentalist, saving the planet one day at a time. By night, she enjoys writing romance novels filled with angst, inspiration, happy-endings, and relatable contemporary female characters.
Although she has a passion for environmental protection, Emily’s passion equally lies with writing. Since she was eight years old, Emily has written a variety of different stories and poems, all of different genres. Her interest in romance didn’t begin until she was twenty-eight years old, looking for a story that could take her mind off of her then-chaotic world. Insert romance novels.
Since then, Emily has been obsessed with romance literature, entranced with how the stories can shine the light on realistic life challenges and take one on a rollercoaster of emotions only to end on the one thing we all dream of¬¬— a happily ever after
When not writing her next novel, Emily loves to spend time with her family and friends. In the event Emily gets free time, you’ll find her curled up with her current read, drinking her favorite wine or bourbon, watching football, or creating memories with her kiddos.
