And who knows, he might just be one. There’s certainly no shortage of girls on campus who agree with the sentiment. They swoon over his pretty face, dark messy hair, and hard body honed from years of lifting and two-a-day practices. That alone makes him catnip for the female species.
Add a lip ring and surly disposition to the package and you can understand what all the fuss is about.
Would I be included in that majority?
Hell, no.
As far as I’m concerned, Crosby can eat shit and die. The guy is a major jerk. Not to mention, a pain in my assets. And that’s putting it nicely. For reasons I’ve never understood, he goes out of his way to humiliate and hurt me. His barbed comments are always a direct hit before exploding on impact.
I’d love to know what I did to elicit such hatred but that would involve conversing with him and I refuse to do that. There’s only one more semester before graduation. Surely, we can get through the next six months without coming to blows.
That’s the hope, anyway.
Which is exactly why I’m thrown off guard when my nemesis pulls me aside and suggests a truce. Do I necessarily trust him after everything he’s put me through?
Nope. For the time being, I’ll agree so there can once again be peace in the kingdom all the while keeping him at a firm distance. Except that turns out to be impossible. Everywhere I go, there he is. It’s like I can’t get away from him. More shocking than that, he’s actually being nice.
If stomping out the underlying attraction that constantly flared to life between us was difficult before, it’s all but impossible now. But that’s exactly what I’m going to do. I’ve been burned by one athlete, I’ll be damned if I allow it to happen again.
This is Brooke and Crosby's story and it was really awesome and a huge surprise. It has a forbidden romance, secret identity, text messaging and also has a bit of redemption for Crosby.
This is part of the series and while it can be read as a stand alone easily. I do suggest you read this series because its awesome and we get to see some of the previous guys from other books in a few scenes.
Brooke dated Andrew who was best friends and roommates with Crosby. Because Crosby is a good guy and was attracted to Brooke he made her hate him. Now Andrew and Brooke are broken up because he cheated on her and Crosby is still mean because he still feels its a forbidden crush. Andrew has not given up and so shenanigans, text messaging, a secret identity is born and Crosby falls even more for her.
This was a really fun book I loved all the secrets that Crosby has and you just know its going to hit Brooke hard. But I really adored Crosby in this story. He had some really tough decisions and I appreciated that he had a huge conflict between his head and his heart.
Brooke hates Crosby until he shows her that he is not the guy he was when she dated Andrew. I liked that she was suspicious but I also liked that she gave him a shot. I also felt her conflict between her feelings about Crosby. She was true to herself and I really loved that about her.
This was a light, fun story with secrets, romance and so much heart that I fell for Crosby just like Brooke did.
