#3 - not a cliché 
Kathanya has always dreamed of becoming a professional dancer, to cheer on the sideline in front of a full stadium coming to support their favorite football team. She worked her entire life towards this goal and this year it was all going to come true. This year she would attend the tryout and sign the contract. The hardest part was to be selected and get in. Or so she thought.

What happens when she finds out her pain in the ass neighbor is none other than the wide receiver for the Beacons? The football team she was sworn to stay away from in the contract she signed. Have I mentioned he's charming and handsome?

The only logical thing to do was to hate him, despise him and hope he would stay for away from her on his own. But let me tell you this... It's hard to hate someone when the more you get to know him the more you discover reasons not to hate him. 

Follow  Kathanya as she navigates the rollercoaster called her life, as she discovers the dark side of the NFL, falls in love and understand the true meaning of friendship.All Rights Reserved

A Burn Like This (Mature Jocks Series #4) by mirabrendanauthor

FREE STORY. PAID BONUS CHAPTERS. DANGEROUS. BEAUTIFUL. SURREAL. Those were the words Jodie Henning used to describe the man she fell in love with, the first time she met him. HAZEL. BLACK. CRIMSON. Those were the colors she associated with his bright eyes, his long dark waves of hair and the scars on his back and upper chest. GUTTURAL. PRIMAL. SELFLESS. Those were the words she used to describe her time in bed with him, a time that edged itself into her memory, a time she continued to dream about for days and months afterwards. PAIN. HURT. RED. Those were everything she felt on his wedding day; throat closing, on the verge of tears, overwhelming sadness and pure pain. A SADDENING GLIMPSE OF HOPE That was what she felt when he came up behind her and whispered Shakespearean promises into her yearning ear. ALEXANDER MATEO HIDALGO III also known as Alex Clayton, number 77, left forward for the Seattle Kraken. But that changed since he got married, he barely shows up for shows or red carpets. The only place he can be spotted is the gym or the rink, with punching bags or hockey sticks. However, Alex is done playing by the book, he's done denying himself what he wants, what he needs. It's been four whole years, would she give him a chance to explain? Would she want to be a part of his dangerous world? Would she fall in love with him all over again? After all, she was the first person he opened up to, the first woman to see him for him; and for the first time in his entire life, he was scared of something that wasn't his life or duties to his family. It was a different kind of love, a love that burned mansions and cities, a Love that sparked with intimacy so much greater than sex. Four years isn't long enough to forget, is it?

Lucky Number Eleven by AdrianaLocke

COMPLETED I've always been the person that does whatever someone tells me I can't. Can't graduate with a four-point-oh? Check. Can't win a modeling contract without trying? Did it. Check. Can't make it in the pro football league? Triple check with an MVP Award on top. When my best friend told me to stay away from his little sister, Layla, it didn't sound like a challenge. Then again, I'd never seen her before. He obviously wasn't thinking about who he was talking to if he believed I could ignore her. I obviously wasn't thinking of him at all when I fell in love with her either. Fact of the matter is: I not only fell harder than a quarterback sack on a Sunday night game, but I did us one better. Kind of like that MVP award, only not so shiny. Sort of like my Player of the Year title, except the only thing I'm walking away with is an ex-best friend and a woman that hates my guts. It's okay. Just tell me I can't win her back. I'm Branch "Lucky" Best and today's my lucky day.

Lucy Bennett is a self-proclaimed bookworm who's spent most of her college years hiding in the comfort of classic novels and the quiet solitude of the library. In the pages of the books she reads, she finds strength and escape, avoiding the chaos of real life--until Dylan Sharpe, the star linebacker, walks into her world and turns everything upside down. Their connection is instant, but it doesn't come without complications. Dylan is focused on one thing: going pro. With scouts watching his every move, the pressure to perform has never been greater. But as his relationship with Lucy deepens, Dylan finds himself torn between his football dreams and his growing love for the girl who sees beyond his jersey. Lucy, on the other hand, is faced with her own fears of being left behind, unsure if she's ready to follow Dylan into an uncertain future that could take him far away from her. As their love story unfolds, Lucy struggles with the idea of leaving behind the world she's always known for a life that feels like it belongs in someone else's book. She's not a fighter like Scarlett O'Hara or a force of nature like Catherine Earnshaw--at least, she doesn't think so. But with every moment spent in Dylan's arms, Lucy must decide: is she willing to fight for a love that seems destined to pull them apart, or is she destined to let go?
