Secretly dating Coach Parker’s daughter was never part of the plan. Neither was becoming her dealer…
ADAMReturning to my drug-dealing past wasn’t on the agenda when I accepted the full ride to play ball at Cypress U. But Mom lost her job. And my sister’s medical bills are mounting. So, I’ve no choice but to change the playbook.When Emily walks into my life, like a fallen goddess with the … Emily walks into my life, like a fallen goddess with the ultimate power to destroy me, I know I’m screwed. I should steer clear, but I’m the one supplying her poison of choice. Falling for her is a complication I don’t need, but the more she’s around, the harder it gets to walk away. She needs me, and I crave her more than the sport I love.
Now, it’s all on the line. Including the NFL career that’s tantalizingly close.
The stakes are high, but family means everything, so I’ll take my chances.
EMILY
It’s only a problem if it’s out of control. And I have it in hand.
Except a certain a-hole discovers I’m using again, and he threatens to rat me out to my folks. Mom’s president of Cypress U, and Dad’s the illustrious football coach. Appearances mean everything to them, and I’m a continuous disappointment. They told me I’d be out on my ass if I fell off the wagon, so keeping it a secret is my number one priority.
Until the super-hot all-star QB takes more than a passing interest in me. Adam gets me, in a way no guy ever has, filling my head with ideas of forever—and now, I want more.
Dating my dealer is a recipe for disaster, especially when it’s forbidden, but I can’t help myself.
Because I’ve fallen too deep.
And the hole is too large to crawl out of.

Riveting story of addiction, love, forgiveness, and healing. Beautiful and well-written story. I could not put it down. Adam and Emily’s story was full of twists and turns, suspense, and hot and steamy scenes. Characters were well developed and very interesting. I highly recommend this book!
A moving story of two young people who were dealt a cruddy hand in life and ended up making decisions that seemed to help in the short term but almost ruined them in the long term. The book portrayed POV’s that were raw and unapologetically gritty. The other side of the stereotypical pusher and addict revealed Adam and Emily as human beings struggling with past and present demons. I had doubts during most of the book that a HEA was even possible with the direction these two were going. Having Adam and Em find each other despite the unhealthy situations they found themselves in made the story all the more touching. Congrats to Siobhan Davis and S.B. Alexander for an amazing first collaboration!

Wow! This was such an original and amazing story. Once you start, you CAN’T stop! Emily and Adam were both great characters and I found I was dying to see what happened to them. My heart was breaking and warming all at the same time. Great read! I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
Such a good story! One thing I really love about Siobhan’s books is she goes to the dark places and shows everything is not rainbow and sunshine. Life is hard and people struggle. Adam was amazing and I fell in love with him instantly, his heart was so big and he loved the people he loved so much and would do anything for them. And he is so swoon worthy This is the first time I ever got to do something like this and I’m so happy it was with the book. It was very well written and I couldn’t put it down. You will enjoy it. Trust me!!

Two authors with a great collaboration!!! After reading the blurb about this book, I knew I had to read it! Who would seriously take a risk selling drugs to their coaches daughter and then date her? It sounds harsh but Adam and Emily’s relationship is anything but. With other obstacles along the way (think lots of demons), falling in love was the last thing on anyone’s mind.
