What's the worst that could happen when a socially anxious nerd crosses paths with Paramount High's golden boy quarterback in a game of Fear Pong?


Spoiler alert: Everything.


°*°

Clark Alderman has always kept his distance---from parties, from chaos, and especially from Ethan, the effortlessly charming demon quarterback with a habit of turning everything into a spectacle. But after a magical dare at a party gone wrong, Clark finds himself bound to a new weekly routine: being picked up by Ethan every Tuesday.

What starts as a reluctant arrangement quickly spirals into something much bigger. A wrecked convertible, a levitating bunny, and a looming school documentary competition throw Clark into the center of attention he never asked for. To fix what's broken, he'll need help---from his friends, from himself, and inconveniently, from Ethan.

As tension gives way to trust, Clark must navigate magical mishaps, hidden truths, and emotions he's spent years trying to avoid. But with each passing Tuesday, the line between enemies, allies, and something more begins to blur.

40 parts Ongoing

[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.
