Dead Horse ( Noun Phrase / idiom ) " I can 't beat a dead horse . " The act if wasting time and energy on a hopeless cause. Trying to do something impossible, or to continue discussing an issue that has already been decided, resolved, or is no longer relevant. No one knew Sal was going to kill himself on a random night in April. No one knew he'd even left the house. No one except Joey. She had seen him leave, had spoken to him, had took in, what she knew, were his last words, and it made her feel guilty. More guilty than she had ever felt before. The night replayed in her mind, and it kept replaying and replaying every night she laid in bed and stared at her glow-star ceiling. Joey had promised. She promised him. Just... keep this a secret between you and me. And she did. She hadn't told Ravi, she hadn't told anyone. There was no one to tell anyway, she didn't really have any friends. She drowned her sorrows in alcohol, and weed, drugs in general. She tried to forget how she acted out after he died, she tried to forget Max Hastings, his secrets and her own. The quid pro quo. Joey had almost completely erased it from her mind. She could almost lay in bed and not feel immense guilt and grief. But then Pippa Fitz-Amobi showed up, and the girl was more determined than ever to solve the Andie Bell case. And even more so to change Joey Locksmith for the better. *follows netflix adaption of agggtm* [ pippa fitz-amobi x FEMOC ] season one - complete ! season two - writing...

This is a sequel to my first book, Against the playbook. Ellie Crawford has it all, fame, fortune, and a career most athletes can only dream of. As one of the NFL's top wide receivers, she's just signed with the New York Jets, securing her legacy in the sport she's dedicated her life to. Off the field, she's thriving too, her name is everywhere, her nightlife is wild, and she's in a steady, comfortable relationship. By all accounts, she's winning. Juliet Baldwin is just as successful, CEO of Baldwin Lux, a multi-billion-dollar empire that dominates the luxury industry. Ruthless, polished, and untouchable, she's spent the last few years shaping her legacy in a world where there's no room for weakness. Love? That was a distraction. One she convinced herself she left behind. It's been six years since Ellie and Juliet walked away from each other, both believing they were better off apart. But when fate pulls them back into the same city, old wounds resurface, old sparks reignite, and suddenly, the lines between past and present start to blur.

Completed :) '"May I?" She said, mimicking my tone from earlier. I nodded, almost letting out a moan as I felt her body push against mine. Her hands slid their way up from my waist to my arms, wrapping her hands around mine. "Hold it like this." She shuffled about trying to get her feet in the right position before placing her head above my shoulder to aim. "Shoot." I shot and it landed right above the target by like a centimetre. "Try again." I aimed a bit better and shot again. This time I hit it perfectly. "Good girl." She whispered in my ear.' GxG Smut warning 18+ TW blood, violence
