Adrian & Genevieve - Book I of the UCC Series

One night, my roommate dragged me to a party at the basketball's 'all-star team' house. A spilled drink and huge argument later, I have the team captain giving me a personalized nickname and longing for my phone number. Not how I planned for my sophomore year to go.

Genevieve 'Gigi' Laurence prospers through her freshman year at the notable University of Central Chicago, only to be met with an unruly sophomore year. Filled with parties, booze, and basketball, she's introduced to the team's captain and notorious womanizer, Adrian Castillo, causing her focus to shift. With the opportunity to secure an internship, she hopelessly tries to stay on track but with Adrian's eyes on her, it's less than possible. Unfortunately for her, she becomes intrigued by his hot-blooded, seductive, and asshole behavior. Finding herself in a compromised situation she needs to ask herself if she'll give in or stay on course. 

Adrian Castillo is beginning his senior year of college with a serious relationship being the last thing on his mind as his life is under less than ideal circumstances. With the NBA draft coming up, playing in March Madness as three-time team captain, and worst of all dealing with his broken home issues, he's filled with stress and pressure from all sides of his life. But, when he meets Genevieve Laurence, he's captivated by her books, beauty, and gentle soul. The idea of a committed relationship soon purviews his mind and as the center of attention on campus, in the college league, and by the people around him, his rock-solid aura needs to remain solidified.All Rights Reserved

✬ 𝕋𝕙𝕖 𝔻𝕒𝕣𝕜 ＆ 𝕃𝕚𝕘𝕙𝕥 𝕊𝕖𝕣𝕚𝕖𝕤 ✬ There is a crucial moment in one's life that determines the outcome of everything; well, as books and movies would have you believe. But Monica McCaslin didn't think she would ever be one of those people, would ever have one of those moments. Brought up in a small suburb, with everything she could ever ask for, there wasn't much left for her to want. Monica's ordinary life was to go as such- follow her high school sweetheart to college, graduate, get married, have two kids; the cookie cutter life. White picket fence included. What she did not expect was to meet a dark-haired stranger sitting all alone on a park bench, at that very same school she was to attend with said future husband. After a brief conversation, just a handful of words between them, Monica decides to go on a cross-country road trip with him; putting her faith and future in the hands of a stranger. Thinking she'd soon regret her decision and the life she left behind, she realizes she doesn't at all. Free of expectation and a future that she thought was set in stone, she begins to find the woman she was truly meant to be. State by state, with each border they cross, Monica liberates her true self. 𝔹𝕠𝕠𝕜 ➃ 𝕠𝕗 ➃ - ℂ𝕠𝕞𝕡𝕝𝕖𝕥𝕖 - ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ ✫ ✬ This is a work of fiction.

I Don't Mind by gabedavisbills13

[boyxboy] Adrian Sanders has had a crush on Derek Peterson for three years in high school. They played on the same side of the field, locking up any receivers that tried to get receptions on them. Adrian is the only person that knows that Derek is gay, but Derek doesn't know that, until Adrian sees something that will change their relationship completely. WARNING: There are massive spoilers for Teammates With Benefits. If you don't want a book full of smut, then this book can kind of be read as a standalone, but I would not recommend it. There will most likely be smut, but this is going to be a slow burn. Homophobia will be way more present than it was in Teammates With Benefits. My updating schedule will be the exact same as it was for Teammates With Benefits. Every Monday and Friday at 7 AM PST/10 AM EST. This will be consistent throughout the entire book. This book will probably be under constant editing, similar to Teammates With Benefits. Again, the schedule of these football (American football) games will not be the same as it is in real life. In real life, college football ends in January, but in this book, games will go until May. This is most likely not going to be the only sequel/spin off I write off of Teammates With Benefits. I'll see where all the characters are by the end of this book, decide if I want to or am at least motivated enough to write another book with these characters. I most likely will be.

Harper's Rules 1 & 2 by still_just_me

We're not in love. Our past is a dumpster fire. The best we are is friends with benefits... without the friends' part. Jake Harrison, USC's star quarterback, goes through girls faster than jock straps. If that's not disgusting enough, he's my best friend's brother and my prime motivation for celibacy. Transferring to UCLA means finally getting out of my dad's house. All I want is to stay under the social radar, make Dad proud by earning my paralegal certification, and get out of Los Angeles. When Jake learns I'm nearby, the cocky jerk will stop at nothing to rekindle what didn't work before. He thinks he's grown and matured past the boy who crushed my teenage heart. I think he's taken too many tackles into the turf, but when he proposes a stress management agreement during his season... I can't help but see his point. His seven-and-a-half-inch point. The last time we indulged, we got sloppy. Not the good kind-soul-crushing feelings-sloppy. My brain knows cutting ties was for the best, but the rest of my body still hates me. But I won't be made a fool again. This time, I have rules: No attachment. No cuddles. And no falling in love. Yet, when treacherous feelings resurface, I do the worst thing possible-Break my own rules. This time, whoever falls first isn't getting back up. Story is complete.

Nobody But You by mskaydanae

To Adriana, her last year in college couldn't get any better - she was in the top of her class, her school radio show was ranked the college's most listened student-ran show, and she was already getting offers for jobs. Her life was stress-free, especially since she had one thing NOT to worry about - a boyfriend. Unlike most girls, Adriana never expressed feelings for wanting a boyfriend. She actually never planned to date. And after a few bad experiences, she knew why. To her, guys were just immature and never knew what they wanted until the one they felt they needed was already gone, and she didn't have time for the drama. But, after one great moment with Samuel Davis, University of Southern California's hottest male student, and their star basketball player, she thinks she may have a change of heart. What will happen after these two have a few interactions? Will Adri give LOVE a chance, or will she remain the same? Copyright © 2016 by Kayla Angel

Kendall has always lived a quiet life in a small town in Illinois with her family, friends, and boyfriend Jordan. Her life had been mostly happy other than when her best friend moved away when she was 10. It took her years to get over that loss. Then several years later, tragedy struck when her father passed away suddenly and Kendall was forced to move with her mom closer to Chicago where she could find a job to support the two of them. Little does Kendall know that she is in for the surprise of a lifetime. From the book.... As he catches up to me, he grabs my arm swings me around and with one swift movement he ushers me into a nearby empty classroom with the lights off. He cages me in against the wall. His close proximity is making me dizzy and my mind is thinking very dirty thoughts. Wait no. I can't think like that anymore. "Kendall." He says hungrily. "You are mine and only mine. You drive me wild and no one else can have you." He says as he attacks my lips. It feels so amazing I can't help but kiss him back. I run my hands through his beautiful hair and he groans into the kiss. Man I don't want this to ever end. I feel drunk on him. I don't think I can let him go. He stops suddenly to finish his thoughts. "No one can make you feel like this. Or kiss you here...." He says as he kisses down my neck. I moan and he smirks pulling his face impossibly close to mine. "..or touch you." He says as he takes his hand and brushes it lightly down my arm and he snakes it back around my back pulling me even closer if that is possible. He finally stops at my ass which he squeezes delightfully and I hum in response. Warning: Contains graphic sexual content. Read at your own discretion. You will not be warned ahead of time.
