Ravenclaw_Pride002

Stoic college junior, Kelly Rivers, is balancing a string of heartbreaks, a pile of unread manuscripts, five summer courses, and an internship on top. And she's doing quite well--at least that's what she wrote on her résumé.

No one tells the truth on those anyway.

The truth is that her composure is slowly cracking and her mental health is degrading.

Things only get worse when the editor she works for asks her to help sign a deal with promising but eccentric writer, Miles Whitman. Not only does he complicate her job, but he also makes it a point to break through her façade and find out why she has been ignoring her feelings for years.

What's a girl gotta do to catch a break?

Crushing on the Captain by fallen_golden_rose

Eve Kingston is sick of being pushed around by hockey. Her entire life, the spotlight has been on her older brothers. She adores Nick and Logan, but she's been fighting hockey practices, tournaments, and games since she was a toddler. Not to mention all of their accomplishments, awards, exam scores, and achievements that she could never seem to earn. Now that she's all grown-up, she wants nothing to do with hockey (other than going to a couple of Logan's games every year). So far, she's avoided hockey pretty well. She's a first grade teacher, living in a tiny, cramped apartment with a kitchen older than her parents. Everything is going smoothly. Except when she's at the educator convention of the year, Eve ends up trapped in Seattle due to a snowstorm. Worse, she runs into Graham Everett, Logan's teammate and captain. Also the guy she's been crushing on for years, but that's not important. Suddenly hockey looks a lot harder to stay away from if it involves Graham. Especially since he's just as sweet, and kind, and adorable as she's ever imagined. Logan seems to be interfering as well, naming Graham the best man at his wedding while Eve is the maid of honor. Eve just wants to have her brothers back, like when they were kids and everything was easy. But if she happens to find love along the way, it might be with the man of her dreams. This is the sequel to Full Strength, but it totally can be read as a standalone! This is a closed door/clean romance, but there maybe be some more heated moments in the story.

You win by localCrackie

Two athletes, one bet, and the most significant loss of all-two words. Meet her: Sofia Delezar, captain of UFN's soccer team. Sarcastic, hard-headed, and tired of the lack of media and respect the female athletes at UFN are receiving. Enter him: Stephan Westerman, star player of UFN's football team, careless, big flirt, and so happens to be UFN's golden boy with all the attention in the world. However, struggles to maintain a picture-perfect reputation. The agreement: In the span of four months, Stephan takes on the task of giving Sofia's soccer team the recognition they deserve. In return, Sofia "dates" Stephan in order to shake off his playboy reputation and mend his relationship with his parents. +++ "Don't go falling in love with me, Delezar," his words lace with sarcasm. "Yeah, 'cause you're such a catch?" My brow cocks upward. "Wanna bet?" he shrugs, a taunting glint in his brown eyes. "An easy win," I retort, crossing my arms over my chest. "A competition," he declares, leaning back in his chair, his smug expression riling me up. "If, over these four months, someone-" "You," I interject. "Right... If it so happens that one of us, specifically you, catches feelings during our little 'relationship,' you lose," he explains, as though it's the simplest concept in the world. "And what does the winner get?" "You get to break the other person's heart," he says matter-of-factly. "Plus..." "You win." --- Best overall ranks: #1 sports #1 athlete #2 diabetes #3 college stories #4 hefallsfirst #4 college romance

Head Over Heels by stephzimmy

Lila Daniels has spent all of her life living under the protective wings of her three older brothers, Charlie, Lucas and Tucker or in the gymnastics gym training. None of which resulted in much of a social life. All of that changes though the summer before Lila's junior year of high school when her dad gets a new job in a different state. Being forced to transplant her life to the small town of Romeo without her brothers or gymnastics means Lila is on her own for the first time in her life. How is she supposed to start over from scratch and make new friends now?! The thought of having to meet all new people for someone who likes to fly under the radar is hard enough, but to do it at age sixteen? That feels impossible. As fate would have it, Lila meets Payton Johnson on her first day at RHS who introduces her to Rachel, Kelly and Claire. The five become fast friends. The girls make it their mission to break Lila from her shyness and make Romeo feel like home. Oh, and they also recruit her to join their cheer team which isn't something Lila ever thought she'd feel confident enough to do. Then there's Tyler Johnson. He's the senior football captain, star quarterback and most popular guy in school who happens to also be Payton's older brother. Lila doesn't want to catch feelings for her new besties brother, but quickly realizes you can't really control who you crush on. It's not like Tyler would ever go for her anyways, when he's got so many other girls begging for his attention....or would he? If you're looking for a coming of age love story with strong female friendships, comic relief, overly protective brothers, self discovery, silly small town traditions and a slow burn....then look no further! #1 in "Cheerleader" August 2022 #1 in "Journal" November 2022 #1 in "First Kiss" May 2022 #1 in "Small Towns" May 2022 #8 in " Teen Fiction" June 2022 #2 in "Football" August 2022 #2 in "chick lit" August 2022 #1 in "Teen Romance" September 2022
