(UNEDITED, WRITTEN WHEN I WAS FIFTEEN, VERY EXTREMELY CLICHE )
Love stinks like a dirty gym sock, and that's why Taylor Hastings wants nothing to do with it. She doesn't need a boyfriend to be happy, especially when she's seen what kind of damage love can do.
Already dividing her time between school, work, her stepmother's endless demands, and her secret online identity, Taylor accepts to tutor one of her classmates in English -and regrets it. She has to tutor Josh Bradley, the quarterback. Girls worship him like a god and Taylor doesn't understand why. He's an arrogant jackass who plays them like a football defense.
Taylor's ready for football season to end so she can avoid him again, but the two form a surprising bond, trusting each other with their secrets. She finds a friend in someone she never saw coming.
There's something else she didn't see coming.
And it starts with L.

I Hate Football Players
Football players are assholes. I know - my brother is their king. Older and annoyingly overprotective, he's the star quarterback at Santa Cruz High School. I love him, but everyone worships the air he breathes and it's suffocating. After a traumatic experience with a quarterback three years ago, I want nothing to do with boys and dating. All that matters is getting into college, so I ace my classes and sign up for my school's student ambassador program to boost my applications. Thankfully, I have my best friend, Harper, to get me through high school being overshadowed by my brother. My plans for a quiet, low-key senior year are destroyed when my brother's cocky, arrogant rival keeps butting into my life. Logan Hightower is a total player who expects me to drool at his feet while he uses me to burn my brother's game. If he thinks I'll fall for his gorgeous looks and shallow charms, he's totally mistaken. He'll never succeed because I hate football players.
