What’s the worst thing about wanting a sexy NFL football player? Everyone else wants him, too.

 

After catching my boyfriend getting deep-throated by a skanky cage girl, I’ve learned my lesson – never date a professional athlete. Never. Besides, I have more important things to worry about, like not blowing my shot to make it as a broadcast reporter. I won’t let anything get in my way, not even the new “it boy” of the NFL and my hot-as-hellneighbor.

 

What's the worst thing about getting death glares from his new neighbor? It doesn't make him want her any less.

 

I’ve worked my ass off to make it to the pros. The last thing I need is the complication of a relationship, especially since my last one was a total train wreck. But I can’t stop thinking about the feisty girl next door with the smart mouth. And I’d love nothing more than to show her what to do with that mouth.

 

Friends with benefits might be the best idea he’s ever had. Or the worst.

 

Kissing Madeline is a companion novel to DEAREST CLEMENTINE and FINDING DANDELION. Each book is a stand-alone.

 

♦️🔷♦️REVIEW: 🔷♦️🔷

Such a sweet story! I loved it so much. I had never read a pro footballer book before. It was funny and interesting and the sexy bit... Holy hell... They were seriously the hottest sex scenes I have read in a very long time! For real, so hot!

I laughed out loud so many times. I loved they way all the characters interacted, they were all so funny!

Maddie was determined and slightly jaded due to her ex-Manwhore but her and Daren hit it off immediately. She had a lot of nonsense to deal with, her ex, her completely douchebag of a boss and a co-worker who was a total ho. But she also has some amazing friends. And Daren of course :)

Daren... Oh sweet NFL Gods... I loved him so hard. He was focused and honest and sweet and genuine. You can keep your bad boys I will take the awesomeness that is Daren Sloan. He is one of those mythical creatures... An incredibly sexy famous athlete who is down to earth, non-egotistical, and humble. It was impossible not to fall in love with him right along with Maddie.

This has everything you want in a romance... Mystery, sexual tension, jaw & panty dropping sex scenes, laugh out loud moments, and suspense. 

The whole package, I will be devouring the other stand-alones in this series ASAP.

Twenty-year-old Clementine Avery doesn't mind being called bitchy and closed off. It's safe, and after being burned by her high school sweetheart and stalked by a professor her freshman year of college, safe sounds pretty damn good.

 

Her number one rule for survival? No dating. That is until she accidentally signs up for a romance writing class and needs material for her latest assignment. Sexy RA Gavin Murphy is more than happy to play the part of book boyfriend to help Clem find some inspiration, even if that means making out...in the name of research, of course.

 

As Gavin and Clem grow closer, they get entangled in the mystery surrounding a missing Boston University student, and Clem unwittingly becomes a possible target. Gavin tries to show Clem she can handle falling in love again, but she knows she has to be careful because her heart’s at stake…and maybe even her life.

When soccer all-star Jax Avery collides with Dani Hart on his twenty-first birthday, their connection is instantaneous and explosive. For the first time in years, Jax isn’t interested in his usual hit-it and quit-it approach.

 

But Dani knows better. Allowing herself a night to be carefree and feel the intensity of their attraction won’t change anything when it comes to dealing with a player. So when Jax doesn’t recognize Dani the next time he sees her, it shouldn’t be a total shock. The fact that he’s her new roommate's brother? That’s a shock.

 

Dani doesn’t regret that night with Jax, just the need to lie about it. Since her roommate has made it clear what she thinks about her brother’s “type” of girl, the last thing Daniwants is to admit what happened. 

 

Jax knows he’s walking a fine line on the soccer team. One more misstep and he’s off the roster, his plans to go pro be damned. Except he can’t seem to care. About anything… except for the one girl who keeps invading his dreams.

 

Despite Jax’s fuzzy memory of his hot hookup with his sister’s friend, he can’t stay away from her, even if it means breaking his own rules. But there are bigger forces at work–realities that can end Dani’s college career and lies that can tear them apart. 

 

Jax realizes what he’s losing if Dani walks away, but will he sacrifice his future to be with her? And will she let him if he does?
