I promised my best friend I’d look out for his little sister. I promised I’d protect her. Instead—I fell in love with her.
Have you ever had a secret so explosive, you hid it even from yourself?
All my life, I’ve lied to myself about my true feelings for Brooke. The fact that she’s my life-long best friend’s sister makes her strictly off-limits. When she comes to Ridley University—where I’m a hockey legend—I promise her brother I'll look out for her. And the lies only get worse.
I lie to myself about the protective fury I feel when I see guys try to hit on her.
I lie to myself about the sparks that crackle in the air when we're alone.
I lie to myself about why my heart pounds when I hear her laugh.
I lie to myself about the desire that burns in my chest every time our bodies meet in hugs that are supposed to be “friendly.”
When I find out she’s been lying, too, we tell ourselves the biggest lie of all. That we can indulge our passions in secret, for a limited time. That we can satisfy the lust that’s built up for years, and then go back to normal.
But one taste is enough to turn me into an addict. And this is one addiction I don’t want to quit. No matter what it costs me.
Own Goal is a full-length, 65k-word college sports romance novel with a guaranteed HEA! It is a standalone as part of the interconnected Hot Shots books, which can be read in any order.
Genre: Romance
