DRAW PLAY (SEATTLE STEELHEADS FOOTBALL) BY JAMI DAVENPORT
Release Date: June 21, 2020
SYNOPSIS
All you’ll ever be is a pretty face.
Star running back Bruce “Bruiser” Mackey has heard those words his entire life, especially after his twin brother’s tragic accident. He might use his surfer-boy good looks to land lucrative endorsements for his secret charity, but he hates books being judged by their covers. Which is why it’s wrong that his friend Mackenzie Hernandez is intent on giving herself a makeover.
Sure, Mac and her father have been reeling financially since her brother disappeared three years ago, and Steelheads management gives an annual scholarship that might get her life back on track, but he can’t imagine anyone smarter, sexier, or more beautiful than Mac already is. He can’t keep his hands off her—and the more they spend time together, the less he wants to. She’s perfect as is.
One way or another, he’ll make sure the team’s tomboy groundskeeper gets a full ride. And between the two of them, they can learn to accept what’s behind them and look downfield to a future full of win.
Previously published as Backfield in Motion in 2013. This version has been updated, rewritten, and re-edited.

Draw Play by Jami Davenport
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Reading Jami Davenport is like diving into the deep end without being ready for the splash. There are so many emotions that flash through the body that all one can do is pray that they are ready for the fall.

With life continuously throwing out curveballs, will they ever find the peace of mind that their hearts have never quit yearning for? Sweet serenity proves it has grit.

CHERISH (THE CLARK FAMILY #2) BY EVELYN SOLA
Release Date: June 22, 2020
SYNOPSIS
Alexandra
I thought I finally had my life figured out. Fate? Destiny? I know mine. But one afternoon questioned everything I thought I knew.
Then it happened. Dr. Jason Dupree crashed into my life.
His eyes linger on me longer than they should in polite company. You see, there is nothing polite about him.
He’s arrogant and overconfident. His touch? It’s my undoing.
I let him know in no uncertain terms that he is not the man for me.
He is not my destiny.
And his reaction? Totally unexpected.
Jason
The things in my life that matter to me? It’s a short list. My career, a handful of family and friends. To call myself unlucky in love would be a gross understatement. Hence my list. It’s how I keep it all figured out.
Then one morning, that safe little list collides with my future.
Her eyes follow me everywhere, and they see through me like a soul x-ray. But it’s her touch that nearly brings me to my knees.
She doesn’t see it, though.
She’s full of denial and sass, and her stares are indignant. She’s a liar too. Telling me she’s interested in another man.
My reaction? Let’s just say she never saw it coming.

REVIEW: CHERISH (THE CLARK FAMILY #2) BY EVELYN SOLACherish by Evelyn Sola
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
If Jake and Sandy had me at hello, Jason and Alex broke me at goodbye. Cherish proved to be a captivating follow up to an already irresistible series. What I love most about The Clark Family series is that it tackles everything from racist stereotypes to tempting romance and the beauty of what makes a family. At it's heart, LOVE, is the foundation for what unites these characters. No matter the color of their skin or the heartache in their lives, LOVE is what guides them through the rough spots. The carefree bachelor finds his soulmate despite the odds. The proof is in the tears.

REVIEW: RIGHT WITH ME (A WITH ME IN SEATTLE UNIVERSE NOVEL) BY STACEY LEWIS
Right With Me by Stacey Lewis
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
It's funny to me how kid's change the dynamic of a story. My personal opinion is that children give more depth to the emotional aspects. They bring out a vulnerability that is sometimes overlooked. Lewis invites hearts into the captivating moments with unforgettable characters that are as intriguing as they are irresistible.
