Book #3 in the Medley Series ZEKE MITCHELL: With the World Championship in swimming approaching and our medley team in better condition than ever, nothing can stop us. Expect, as the season starts, an old injury rears its ugly head again, potentially incapacitating me right before Worlds, the most crucial completion leading up to the Olympics. And at the same time, my best friend decides to return to the States - my state - steeling my focus and making me wish she wouldn't leave in a year. But trying to tie down Maya Bakari is like attempting to capture smoke with your bare hands. She's a gorgeous whirlwind, and soon, she'll blow away. My head is swimming with a million things that have nothing to do with water, and it's threatening to take me out of the game for good. And I can't let that happen. MAYA BAKARI: Well, it had to happen. My parents have been begging me to return to America to finish my degree since I left to see the world six years ago. I give in, promising them one year, before I'm out of here again. Just being in the country is making my skin itch. I'm not the same girl who left. When choosing college, I go where my best friend is: Michigan. But Zeke Mitchell is everything I love about the States. He's home and fun and a whole array of new inappropriate feelings. And with him out of the water indefinitely, we have way too much time together. He's trying to convince me to stay, and I'm afraid he'll succeed. I won't let that happen.Complete

SOPHIE BROOKS: Party, hook-up, hangover, repeat. I don't do rules, responsibility, or monogamy. So when the chance to sleep with the hottest Olympian swimmer in the country presents itself, you can be damn sure I take it. And sneak out before he wakes up the next morning. This has been my way of life for years, and nothing has challenged it. Until him. Charming, ambitious, he draws me in and then refuses to leave. He's persistent, annoyingly so, keeps coming back like a damn boomerang. And he's getting a little too close, asking a little too many questions. Questions I refuse to answer. Some things are just supposed to stay forgotten. JAYDEN SENNELS: Swimming is my life. I basically breathe water. Growing up the way I did, going to the Olympics seemed like an unattainable dream. But here I am, just fresh out of my first games, and I messed up. Big time. Everything was riding on me doing well. Failing wasn't an option. Now I have one last year at college to redeem myself. Enter her. Tall, confident, she seduces me, refuses to tell me her name, and has me waking up to an empty bed. She is an enigma, and there is most definitely something she's not telling me. From the moment I saw her, I knew. This woman is trouble in high heels. She will destroy me. And I am going to love it. 🏊♂️ WARNING: Strong language and sexual content. This is a book about when the past comes back to haunt you. Book #1 in the Medley seriesComplete

Love... Not Romance [BoyxBoy]
Everything started the night before we moved out of our town. I decided to take a late night swim at the lake I love the most. It was sort of a goodbye, a way to somehow wash the pain brought about by my parents' divorce, but then he appeared. As I was floating in the lake, watching the moon and the stars, I heard a noise in the water, and as I turned my head, I saw this guy drowning. I saved him, I brought him back to life, and then... I kissed him and fell in love with him. Things changed after that one stolen kiss. I ran away, and I never thought that I would see him once again, but I did. Little did I know that the moment we meet again, my life would never be the same. This is a story, of how I learn what love really is, of how I came to accept it, of how I came to fight for it. This is not a story about romance. It's way more than that. This is a story where love, family, and little bit of mystery collides. This is a story about my love.Complete
