Lola "Lolo" James has grown up on the sidelines, watching her father coach one of the most elite NFL teams in the country. Her dad's number one rule has always been ironclad: no dating the players. Ever. It's a line Lolo has never been tempted to cross-until now. When Brooks Parker, the star quarterback she tutored in college and secretly crushed on, gets drafted to her father's team, everything changes. Brooks isn't just any player; he's the one Lolo's never been able to forget. The one who made her heart race with every stolen glance and every late-night study session that ended too soon.

With her father's watchful eyes and the pressures of the NFL, Lolo knows she should keep her distance. But the more time she spends around Brooks, the harder it is to follow the rules.

When Abby Ryan, a witty and magnetic journalism student, asks to interview him for an article, he knows the publicity will be good for his career, but when they start spending time together and he realizes that he might want her as more than his typical hook-up- only fashion, he has to remind himself why he refuses to date, and where his priorities need to lie.

But as friends, she and her neighbour might just work. Especially when he comes home one night looking like he'd fought a frying pan and lost, and she ends up patching him up. Not that he'll tell her what happened. He just dismisses it, brushes it off and changes the topic. And then it happens again. And again. What the heck is he involved with? He says it's not illegal. His brother says that he's special. And Clarissa knows he's lost him somewhere along the way. But in what way has he lost himself? And can she help get him back on the right track? And in doing so, maybe she'll admit that she's also a little lost and needs help finding her feet again. ~~~ Phenomenal (Love and Other Catastrophes Book 1) ~~~ ~~~~ Please note: Mild Language Cover Photo by: (Locating Photographer's name)
