Third and Inches

Deacon
Last January, I walked off the field with my arm hanging limply by my side.

After months of grueling physical therapy, I have recovered the ability to throw a perfect spiral, and while my body is ready for the upcoming season, I cant seem to shake the lingering fear that no matter how good I am, it wont be enough.

When my agent calls and tries to convince me to star in an Annabelle Singer docuseries, I quickly decline. With training camp looming, I refuse to allow anything to distract me from preparing to lead the Fire Hawks to our first ever championship.

Annabelle
Having Deacon refuse to participate in my newest endeavor is nothing more than a setback. He isnt the first athlete Ive had to nudge into talking to me and he wont be the last.

His anger at my manipulation is not surprising, but my guilt is unexpected. Determined to earn his trust, I seek his company and endeavor to be friendly. Im not prepared to like him. And I definitely dont expect him to like me back.

A secret relationship between a reporter and a quarterback cannot end well but I cant seem to stay away.

Will public scrutiny tear us apart or make us stronger?

Third and Inches is a standalone in a series of interconnected books. Some characters overlap but each book can be enjoyed on its own.
