Rashir Martin is a basketball prodigy and on the road to being drafted into the NBA. Being an attractive basketball player comes with its perks including parties, women, alcohol, and popularity. Rashir has told himself he doesn't have time for a relationship if he wants to make it to the NBA and he needs to stay focused with no distractions. 

When both of these broken souls cross paths, what will happen?

Every Saint Needs a Sinner by _merrittking_

Jourdan Mathews has a secret, and she knows she needs to take this one to the grave. * * * Her life was never complicated: a college student with a close family, good friends, and a plan for her future as a doctor. Had that night had never happened, she might even have been called ordinary. But we're not made by ordinary moments. Now in her senior year, Jourdan is in freefall after a catalyzing summer that turned everything upside-down. Her friends know she's in trouble, and her parents hope they've done enough to save her, but Jourdan doesn't feel anything anymore. They say moving on happens slowly, but something needs to change fast before life moves on without her. Ryder Harris considers his life to be the farthest thing from "ordinary." He isn't just the kind-of-good basketball player that made him popular in high school. He is the kind-of-great that comes along once in a generation, a fact that has propelled him on a course which only attempts to reach for the stars. If you ask him, this isn't luck or special talent. No, Ryder Harris makes a point to focus himself, to remain undistracted. He's got priorities, and at the very top of his list is being drafted into the NBA. That dream is very close to becoming a reality his senior year, so close he can almost taste it. But the universe has a nasty habit of giving us what we need, not what we want. * * * part I - Jourdan & Ryder * * * Every Saint Needs a Sinner. Copyright. © May 2022. All Rights Reserved.

Always There by maddyxmarie

'"You're a liar. You're a dirty fucking liar," I sob. Despite the fact that I want nothing more than to run away from the man standing in front of me, I know that my grip on his hands is the only thing that's keeping me stable right now. "I didn't lie, sweetheart. I just avoided the topic. If you had figured it out before, I would have told you everything," he claims, pleading with me. I shake my head frantically at him, trying to get the images and thoughts out of my head. "I feel betrayed," I choke. "I don't know if I'll be able to trust you ever again." 🌸🌸🌸 Bryce Bradshaw and Lexi Brooks are living their dream together in New York City. Everything seems to be going well for the pair until Bryce loses control of the secrets that he's keeping. A secret that Bryce has been desperately hiding from Lexi is released, and it seems as if Lexi's world is crumbling as she fights to forgive Bryce. Their love for each other may be strong, but it seems as if no amount of love can make up for the poor decisions that Bryce has made in his past. Eventually, Bryce and Lexi find a way to move past this hurdle, but this seem to come at the cost of their happiness. 🌸🌸🌸 'Something There' Book #3

The Final Shot by pinkbooklett

Summer Sanders is going through it. The pressures of school are mounting, and her home life is completely falling apart. Feeling bored and lonely on a Saturday night, she decides to get buzzed and surprise her hookup buddy with her best lingerie. The only problem? She stumbles into room 212 instead of 221. That fact wasn't apparent until the grumpy occupant, Carter Reyes, returns from his trip to the laundry room to more than an eyeful. Carter is the star basketball player on campus and has plenty of his own issue at hand. With one last shot to achieve their dreams, neither of them any distractions, especially not in the form of fickle college relationships, but for some inexplicable reason, entering each others' lives proves easier than leaving.
