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.

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.

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

Eighteen years is a long time. But for Oli and Luna that time passes in the blink of an eye. Since the moment they met, nothing could have separated the two of them. At 8 and 13, they were an unusual pair of best friends. But they didn't care for anyone else's opinions. Oli was content to listen to Luna's endless ramblings while Luna was content to look up to Oli, following him everywhere he went. But eighteen years passes quickly when distance separates the pair. First college, then work - life gets in the way. But eventually Oli and Luna find their way back to each other, the two of them moving back to their hometown eighteen years after they first met. Things are different this time around. Oli's professional basketball career has been and gone, while Luna's a young, up and coming lawyer. He's not the young teen he used to be and she's not the little girl he once knew. These two are thrown back together time and time again by fate. Perhaps this time, the timing is right for something more than just friends. Maybe they were meant to be All Along.

Sierra Lancaster has had an agonizingly mediocre life. She grew up in a happy home, made loyal friends, graduated college, and is now pursuing her dream of running her own bakery. Boring, right? A story like this wouldn't be one for the books. At least not until you bring a hot neighbour into the mix. A tall, brooding, shredded (like, wash your clothes on those abs shredded), and wildly successful sports agent. Interested yet? It gets better. Said neighbour isn't just a rando, but Sierra's childhood nemesis that made her formerly chubby days a living hell. Now we're talking, aren't we? Holden Rey has always been the golden boy. Holden...golden...you following? You'd think the bitchy universe would do its job and throw some karma his way but to no avail. Not only has he got it all, but he knows it too. He also still has it out for Sierra and resumes being a jack-ass of epic proportions (and his ass ain't his only epic proportion) as soon as he realizes who the new girl next door is. It's the same old story with these two except this time, there's unwilling attraction and sexual tension underneath all the hate. Is it just lust or does the bitchy universe actually have a plan? So maybe this story is one for the books after all. *A hilarious, enemies-to-lovers, romantic standalone. Rated 18+ due to mature content. All rights reserved to TheFeveredBookaholic.*
