A Fighting Chance (Knockout Series)
A.J Nighthawke
by Jaqueline Snowe
When Lorelei Romano's junior year implodes in a single week—boyfriend gone, living plans destroyed, and suddenly relocated to the football house with her overprotective brother—the last thing she needs is the brooding tight end across the hall making it his personal mission to glare her out of existence.
Luca Monroe is all contradiction: tree-trunk thighs, gorgeous hair, and a scowl he apparently reserves exclusively for her. The man radiates grumpy energy like it's a competitive sport, and Lorelei, sunshine-natured to her core, refuses to let him dim her light. She has her own battles to fight—a comeback season with the women's soccer team and a post-breakup glow-up that has nothing to do with her annoyingly attractive new neighbor.
Except Luca isn't just grumpy for sport. With an NFL dream fueling his every move and his grandmother's financial security riding on his success, he can't afford distractions. Definitely not his quarterback's sister. Definitely not someone who laughs too loud and somehow makes the whole house feel warmer just by walking through it. Keeping his distance is the only logical solution.
But logic has a funny way of crumbling when you're forced to share a hallway, a team, and an undeniable pull neither of you asked for.
*First Meet Foul* is a steamy college sports romance that proves the grumpiest men fall the hardest—and the brightest women know exactly how to catch them.
