A sweet and swoony novel of high spice and low stakes from the Coastal Rivals series author, Ki Stephens!
She’s a cheerleader trading in her Oxford life for one year in Nashville. He’s a star quarterback who doesn’t do distractions. But when they team up for a no-strings-attached fling, they’ll have to break their own rules to keep playing the game.
After moving from England and breaking up with her underwhelming boyfriend, Ella Davies has one thing on her mind: proving herself on Whitland University’s elite cheer squad. She’s determined to let nothing derail her focus—except maybe the annoyingly handsome quarterback who keeps popping up at the most inconvenient times.
At Whitland, Hudson Fox is synonymous with football. Known for his relentless drive and reputation both on and off the field, he’s all about control. This season, he’s sworn off distractions to keep his eyes on the prize. But Ella’s fiery spirit and unexpected presence threaten to unravel his carefully laid plans.
Desperate to keep things simple, they strike a deal: just fun, no strings attached. But when lines start to blur and feelings edge in, they'll have to admit the only more dangerous than falling off the mat is falling for each other.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Stephens (Good Graces) pairs up student athletes in this charming campus-set contemporary. British cheerleader Ella Davies is thrilled to spend her year abroad at Whitland University in Nashville, Tenn., home of a top tier cheer program. She's quickly warned away from big man on campus Hudson Fox: "He's our star quarterback. Not to slut shame but he very much uses that fact to his advantage," a new friend texts her. After a sizzling encounter, however, Ella and Hudson agree to be friends with benefits, believing that, as long as they don't get their feelings involved, they're obeying the spirit if not the letter of the university's nonfraternization policy between athletes. Of course emotions develop on both sides despite their best efforts, especially when Ella's partner for a prestigious national cheerleading competition breaks her wrist and Hudson—who unexpectedly has a cheerleading background—steps in to help Ella achieve her dream. Though Ella's inevitable return to England looms over their budding relationship, a solution to their long distance problem may lie in Hudson's dream of studying the classics at Oxford—if he can afford it. Hudson's hidden depths and Ella's smarts and sass go together beautifully. Readers will have no trouble rooting for these two.
