Max Corrigan doesn't consider himself lucky. He never won anything the few times he'd purchased scratch-offs. He's never gotten his coffee paid for by the person in front of him in a chain of 'paying it forward.' And he's certainly never had any luck with dating. All Zach Freeman knows is football. He lives, eats, and breaths the sport and, like all the greats, he is incredibly superstitious. Before having his heart broken, he had a plethora of rituals that had to be performed in order to win. Now the team is on a losing streak with no end in sight. When Zach realizes, through a series of undeniable coincidences, that Max very well could be the answer to his team's misfortune the whole time, he insists Max stick around until the end of the season--just until their coach comes back and they get back on the road to success. With the excitement of winning and a blossoming friendship, on comes much more than college parties and celebratory dances. Zach tends to push his luck and Max thinks it's just the luck of the draw.

| Novel | Version 1 ~ Published early 2018 ~ Burdened with undeniable romantic feelings for his best friend, Greyson feels as if his life has become a typical tragic story of a one sided attraction.

A bit stunned yet remorseless as a multitude of gawking eyes bore into me, I was numb. And sluggishly turning to meet Greyson's watery eyes, it was as if my mind had turned to a word stealing mush."
