Ava Jones grew up with a love for football especially the Cincinnati Bengals. She didn't care about the looks of the players like her best friend Alex. The game always came first, that is until she meets the one and only Joe Burrow. Will Ava's love of the game change because of the one she met last night? Will Joe Smooth's love of the game change because of her?

Photography major Aria Levine is instructed by her advisor that her limited portfolio will do her no favors when it comes to getting admitted to a Graduate program. Shooting primarily stills, landscapes, and nature, her advisor forces her to broaden her horizons by shooting moving objects: football players. As she is thrust onto the field, one she's unfamiliar with, and gets off to a bad start with the star of her new focus, LSU's Quarterback, Joe Burrow, Aria realizes that she has her work cut out for her when she gets stuck shooting the team for the rest of the season: Burrow makes a promise to himself that he won't make it easy for her. When it turns out he'll need her just as much as she needs his cooperation, they strike up a deal, and it becomes apparent pretty quickly that though their start was rocky, feelings-something they're both desperate to avoid-may become unavoidable. *Updates will likely be slow (once or twice a week), I am a college student myself (stick with me, though)! *Mature themes: language, sexual content, substances *Currently Unedited
