Rate this book
These alpha athletes always score. Three stand-alone sports romances set at Stone Creek University that will melt your heart and curl your toes: Deep in the Pocket; Hard Edge; and Possession. Which hero will be your VIP?

DEEP IN THE POCKET
What happens when research partners discover more than they bargained for?

Serena Sanders is determined to put her past behind her. She's done with football and most importantly, with football players. She's got her sights set on graduate school...and maybe her sexy professor can help her get there.

All her plans come crashing down as Talon "The Claw" Kelly stumbles into her class. The quarterback for SCU is cocky and more interested in Serena's assets than he is in working on their group project...until he finds out she's still got her v-card, that is.

Will Serena overcome her growing feelings for this unexpected ally? Will Talon outgrow his partyboy ways and get serious before graduation?

HARD EDGE
He's a hockey star with a GPA problem. She *needs* to keep her tutoring job. What happens if their spark burns the rulebook?

Neal Sweeney is the campus golden boy. He works hard and lives hard, but when his grades threaten his ability to play forward for SCU, the math department sets him up with a tutor.

Studious, serious, and totally off limits, Dahlia Wardzinski steps into the study lounge and Neal is ready to learn whatever she's teaching. The only problem? Dahlia is a woman who follows the rules. She can't risk her work-study funding to cross a line with Neal.

Things heat up when Neal makes a play in the library, and Dahlia finds herself doing things she never imagined. Will Dahlia's boss find out how badly she wants to let him score? Will she wind up just another notch on Neal Sweeney's bedpost?

POSSESSION
She’s all he’s got in the world. He’s her rock and support. Can they risk their friendship for passion?

Baxter Morgan is a football god. He was made to pile drive, and a lifetime of pent-up rage has him coiled to pounce.
Olive Hampton is the girl next door. Their family lives are a tattered mess and for years, they’ve relied on each other for everything. While Bax paved his way to SCU on a football scholarship, Olive scrapes by with her work-study job in the training room. When drama and injuries threaten to tear them apart, an undeniable spark ignites between the lifelong best friends. Can they bet it all and taste true love?

A bully hero, determined heroine, and sizzling passion will hook you into this fast read from the creator of the Stag Brothers. If you like sports romance, steamy passion, and intense action, you’ll devour this friends-to-lovers novel faster than a defensive tackle scoops up a fumble.

pretty good

Sorry for the average rating but this is my honest review. I’m not a big fan of instalove/instalust and that was a part of the first two books. The playboy jocks came across as smarmy as they hit on their tutor/classmate in the first two books. Both stories had the forbidden love/secret relationship trope that caused major problems in the mind of the MCs before that issue fizzled out rather anticlimatically. The 3rd book features childhood friends to lovers where both keep their feelings hidden so as not to endanger their close friendship. There was a huge double standard in this book as the H slept around flagrantly in front of the h, whom he has supposedly been in love with for years, while simultaneously scaring off any guys who look at her. He’s a playboy while she’s still a virgin as a college senior. He takes her places then leaves with other women. I find that whole plot line very yuck. It’s never discussed between them either. I would have rather either both of them been virgins or both of them dating others while secretly pining for each other. As it is, he came off as very douchy and I really wished that she would sleep or date someone else since he felt so free to do the same. The books need a little editing - a few misplaced words and phrases here and there that a little proofreading would have caught. Respect your readers and have someone correct these errors before publishing. There were too many errors to ignore.

3 short sports romance stories.

The stories were ok, there’s no huge plot, the first two stories are insta love and the third is childhood friends to lovers.
I found the sex scenes quite similar throughout the 3 stories.
I usually love sports romances but these didn’t hit the right spot for me.

These stories would benefit from a proof read to remove the spelling mistakes and misplaced words. Some scenes don’t flow right, for example she has her jeans on, then his fingers are inside her, but then he’s touching her over her jeans.

I loved each of these books…and what made them so much better was the females each were so strong in math and science. They were pursuing their education and were not going to settle for a boy. Excellent!!!!

Fairly enjoyable stories

Fairly enjoyable stories but they didn’t really keep my interest. I’m a huge fan of the sports romance genre and I was a bit disappointed.
