battle battleofthecaptains captains challenge hate love rivals romance soccer

(Second book of Battle of the Captains)

Northwood soccer captains Bryce Jacobs and Maddie Tate have had to share things all their lives- their first soccer ball, their weekly family dinners, the soccer spotlight and now they have to share the field.

Having moms who are best friends has basically bound them for life but having a competitive streak makes it hard to be best friends. Despite being tied by the hip their whole childhood, they've grown far about and far more competitive than before. 

When the girl's soccer team loses their coach, the coach of the boy's team takes them in for the meantime, forcing Bryce and Maddie to play nice like they did as kids, forcing them to be co-captains. They are individual teams, practicing as one, adding to the amount of time they have to spend together and restarting the cycle of sharing between the two.

They can work together if they can stop trying to fight the obvious chemistry. But what if they realize that they really are the dream team their parents believed them to be?

With his cocky attitude and infuriating smirks, he manages to get right under her skin. So, asking his arrogrant ass for help with music to impress Sean? Not in a million years. Unless... she doesn't have another option anymore. When a music battle brings together these sworn enemies, will they be forced to look past their childhood enmity and realize they could share a somewhat civilized bond? Or maybe, just maybe, a little something more? After all, there is a fine line between love and hate. And for them, it's blurring faster than ever.

My Brother's Best Friend by Believeeexoxo

From Wattpad to your book shelf! My Brother's Best Friend is now published as Playmaker. Available to Order now. Falling in love never scared Maddie Davis until she fell for the one boy she swore to stay away from forever. Season 1 of My Brother's Best Friend ********* Maddie Davis has been in love with her brother's best friend, Cameron Holden, since she was in the sixth grade. They used to be best friends, too, until he got into high school and became a version of himself she didn't even recognize. Everyone said he was a shoo-in for the NFL, and he let it get to his head. Right before high school started, he worked out until he was built like a sculpture, he got rid of his braces, and suddenly the girls fell at his feet. But that was fine because her middle school crush faded. And besides, even if she did think he was hot, Cameron wasn't someone she could go for even if she wanted to. Unless, of course, she found herself wound up with him in a closet during a game of blind seven minutes -- a closet so tiny and secretive that she would finally be able to act on the feelings she's tried so desperately to hide. But what were the odds of that happening? Content warning: This story contains mature sexual content and themes of bullying, sexual assault, violence, and explicit language.

Everyone fears him, knowing damn well that he's the kind of guy that won't hesitate to send you crying just for breathing in his direction. Well, everyone but Veronica Stone. Veronica Stone is the captain of the school's girls soccer team and everyone knows that's she's one of the best female player in the country. Unlike Blake, Veronica is known as the girl that's always seen with a smile on her face. She has guys after her, but she doesn't even know about it. Well, other than Blake Wilder. At first, the two can't stand each other, but what happens when they realize that they're basically forced to tolerate each other? What happens when the two learn that they have a lot more in common than they even thought possible? Blake and Veronica think they're polar opposites, little do they know, they're more a like than they even realized. I know I suck at descriptions but please consider giving this book a chance. I swear it's not as bad as I made it seem. And I apologize in advance because my writing in this book sucks and this entire book needs heavy editing.

Better Than You | ✔️ by brynnbunker

**FAIR WARNING: YOU WILL HAVE TO BE PATIENT WITH CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, BUT IT IS THERE, AND WORTH THE READ. IF YOU ARE OVERLY SENSITIVE, DO NOT READ THIS BOOK* Logan Pierce and Noah Locke are sworn enemies. Both at the top of their class, holding themselves to the highest standards; both captains of their volleyball teams, Logan as the girls captain, Noah as the boys; and both constantly playing seemingly harmless pranks to get back at one another. Or, at least, they're usually harmless... If one thing is true, Noah Locke and Logan Pierce are not friends. But does that mean they could never be friends? Or transcend their title as enemies? Logan might take things too far sometimes, but there's a reason behind the angry front she puts on, and in order to get behind it, someone needs to show her that there's more to life than being the best at everything. Cue Noah Locke. When the two volleyball teams are sent away to a team bonding camp for a week over Fall break, Logan and Noah must learn to get along for the sake of their teams. Partnered up and made to do activities together and bond, the goal is for Noah and Logan to stop this ongoing feud. And when something happens at the bonding camp that brings Logan's vulnerable side up to bat, Noah is the one who has to bring her back. While Logan and Noah explore something other than hatred for one another, there are secrets and people who could be working in toll to bring them apart. But will they be able to transcend those factors and stop fighting for once? Or were they destined to be enemies forever? "Better Than You" challenges the idea that enemies have to stay enemies forever, and proves that if you don't run away from love, you may just find where you were meant to be.
