Additional information
by Deanna Faison (Author)
Perfect for fans of steamy, friends-to-lovers romances by authors like Elle Kennedy and Tessa Bailey.
This follow-up to Playmaker is set in the same world and features two of the secondary characters from the previous book. Ethan Davis is determined to turn his life around. He's tired of being the guy with no plan, no direction, and no future. A new college and a part-time gig helping to coach a youth football team could be the fresh start he needs. Sure enough, things seem to be moving in the right direction. But when he discovers that Maya Garcia--the girl he's loved for years, and the one who left him high and dry after their hookup six months ago--is living in the dorm room next door, his confidence threatens to falter. Maya is away from her overbearing parents and their dreams for her for the first time, finally getting a taste of what living life for herself truly means. She also begins to wonder if ending things with Ethan was a mistake. She's desperate to salvage their friendship--at least--even if it means hiding the real reason that she ghosted him. With personal issues and family expectations weighing them both down, the two must decide if they'll continue to play by the rules set by those around them or change the game completely and choose each other instead.Author Biography
