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 series

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.
