    The Captain’s Girl

    Y/N Jacobson spent years being treated like the unwanted daughter in her own family. Her father chose Sasha every time, her stepmother made her life miserable, and the boy she thought loved her betrayed her for the one girl who had always wanted what was hers. So when Julian Voss breaks her heart, Y/N decides she’s done being the girl everyone overlooks. Her solution? Lie. One little lie turns into telling everyone that Connor Reid—the arrogant, cocky, untouchable captain of the football team—is her boyfriend. She expects Connor to call her out. Instead, he plays along. Suddenly, Y/N has the school’s most wanted football player calling her name across the hallway, pulling her against his side, holding her hand in front of Julian, and proudly introducing her as his girl. The only problem? Connor stops pretending. What started as a fake relationship meant to make Y/N’s ex jealous slowly becomes something neither of them expected. Connor doesn’t just want to make Julian regret losing her—he wants Y/N to realize that he would choose her every single time. And while Sasha is determined to take everything Y/N has, Connor is determined to make sure she finally gets something that’s completely hers. Him.

    Breaking Coach’s Rules

    They say college is where you’re supposed to find yourself. For me, it was where I found him. Starting my freshman year at Rowan Creek University, I promised myself I’d stay out of trouble. No distractions. No drama. Just classes, new friends, and a chance to step out of the shadow of my father—Joseph Daniels, the head coach of Rowan Creek’s Division I hockey team. Then Matthew Cullens walked into my life. Sophomore. Team captain. Campus favorite. Future hockey star. And my dad’s player. He’s the one person I should never want, but the more we fight what’s between us, the stronger it becomes. Stolen glances turn into secret meetings, hidden feelings become impossible to ignore, and suddenly we’re risking everything for a love that was never supposed to happen. If my dad finds out, Matthew could lose his captaincy, his team, and the future he’s worked so hard for. But some hearts were never meant to follow the rules.
