She's heart-meltingly sweet. He's deliciously sinful. Greyson Decker is your typical jock; God in the bedroom, king on the field. His brooding glare and shredded body terrifies as much as it turns on, and that gets him as much attention with women as it does with NFL recruits. Synamie Blake is not your typical cheerleader. Forced to be hardened by her past, she is tough and smart; two things that don't get you far in the college social scene. When their worlds collide, Greyson becomes a protective friend who ups her social rank and pulls her into his world of parties, great friends, better teammates and something much, much dirtier. I mean, her name does rhyme with sin... Syn hated the idea of being under Greyson's daunting wing, especially right after escaping the claws of her past, but he is nothing like his bad boy reputation perceived. He rips her from her nightmares, she seeps into his soul, and they become so hooked, not even the entire span of a football field could keep their burning passion in check. But their path to becoming friends to lovers might be harsher than the fire between them. *** He looks irate, and for some reason, that makes me burst into hysterics. "Do you get enjoyment from my pain, you demon child?" That only makes me laugh harder. "You're a grumpy old man," I inform him. I'm grinning up at him, and I'm glad he has my arms pinned to my sides because I want to pull his lips into a smile, and right now he'd probably bite my fingers off if I did that. And then he says, with a dark glare and a deep scowl, the sweetest words I have ever heard. "Fine. If I have to go infertile for you to smile at me like that, then so be it." And that's when I knew, in this weird, hazy, drunken moment, that Greyson Decker was undoubtedly the best thing that has ever happened to me. *** Cover model: Chase Mattson

What happens when brooding quarterback, Holden Steele, falls for a broken girl? ********* All artistic eighteen-year-old, Savannah Raine, wanted when she joined university was a fresh start. A blank canvas that wasn't mired by the memory of her dead brother or her psychotic ex boyfriend. She had no intention of spattering paint on her otherwise bland love life. She didn't mean to get caught up in his cold grey eyes, but the heart was an unforseen organ and maybe her's craved pain. No one could blame her though, certain not the female population. You see, it's impossible to resist a bad boy that is a good man. Even harder when he came in the form of brooding quarterback, Holden Steele. For two years, he had been content with admiring her from afar, but when fate-or rather a cramped collage bathroom-brings them together, he's intent on making her his.
