Smile For Me Captain
|(BxB)| Eli gasped dramatically. "Okay, that earns you like, three boyfriend points." Ryan raised a brow, amused. "Is there a scale?" "There's always a scale." Eli took a sandwich, unwrapping it. "You're at, uh, seven points total now." "Seven out of...?" Eli pretended to think. "Let's say fifty." Ryan scoffed. "Fifty? Harsh grading." "Earn the rest," Eli said, smirking before taking a bite. ᯽ Eli never meant to fall for the captain of the basketball team. He just wanted to get through senior year quietly, taking photos for the yearbook and avoiding human interaction whenever possible. But when he's assigned to cover the basketball team-meaning taking photos and interviewing players-his life turns into a blur of camera flashes, flying basketballs, and one very annoyingly perfect captain. Ryan Calloway has it all-charm, talent, and the whole school wrapped around his finger. Being the pastor's kid comes with expectations, though... and none of them include falling for the beautiful boy behind the lens. But Eli's smart mouth is addictive. His dimple is distracting. And soon, Ryan's double life starts getting harder to balance-especially when every stolen glance feels like a confession waiting to happen. Between clumsy interviews, accidental almost-kisses, and late-night games that turn into something softer, Eli and Ryan find themselves caught in the one thing neither of them saw coming. Love. And maybe, just maybe-it's worth smiling for. ᯽

Breaking The Ice
When photography student, Willow Kennedy, gets offered an internship with her college's renowned ice hockey team, The Michigan Wolverines, she anticipates three things: 1) Her twin brother being an unbearable and over-protective nightmare. 2) Her photographs not making any real impact whatsoever. 3) The team completely shutting out the curly-haired girl pointing a camera in their faces. What Willow didn't take into account, however, was the Wolverine's team captain. Rumoured NHL first draft pick, dreamboat and total game changer- Tate Wilder. With his infectious dimpled smile, sparkling green eyes and addictive personality, Tate quickly turns Willow's internship into a life-changing and eye-opening experience- one filled with love, friendship and opportunities. Willow didn't meet the Michigan Wolverines looking for love, and funnily enough neither did Tate, but love soon found them. ********* "Pretty please?"

But that image is little tarnished by the hand she has dipped into my boxers. I can feel my Adams apple bob as I reply. "O-okay. Fine, you win this time." The smile I get in response is absolutely blinding. A full, mega-watt grin with teeth, crinkled eyes and blush on the apples of her cheek.
