Because of Will Blake

College senior Mason Sparks wants nothing to do with athletes. For years he's spent despising them and vowing to never fall for one again. A traumatic high school past reminds him what they're capable of and the type of people they can be. To Mason, jocks are trouble and destined to break hearts for the rest of their lives. He'll never give his heart to another one again. It's his last year at Wakeland University and Mason hopes to finally let his grudge go and have a trouble free year. That is until Will Blake enters his world.
Stubborn and sarcastic Will Blake is ready to take on his last year of college football. After transferring to Wakeland for senior year, Will wants nothing more than to start over and focus on playing his heart out on the court. And to hide his heart from anyone outside of it. After all, mistakes and dark secrets are better kept caged up.
After an unexpected and steamy encounter, Mason and Will find themselves intertwining with each other's lives. Agreeing to keep their unforeseen bond strictly physical and to their own benefit, neither one of them are prepared for the unpredictability of their hearts. As a brewing passion grows stronger, Mason and Will are forced to confront their demons as well as each other's.
After all, sometimes love finds you in even the darkest of hiding places.
