Jock Road — Sara Ney

EAT. SLEEP. FOOTBALL.

Those are Jackson Jennings Jr.'s three mantras. His entire life, he's been a trained athlete with only one endgame: the Pros. No girls. No parties. No alcohol.

EAT. SLEEP. FOOTBALL.

Repeat.

Every Friday night, Triple J cruises the strip on campus, bored, lonely, and conditioned not to party. But the night he meets Charlotte Edmonds on the side of the road, he wonders if his three mantras will ever be enough.

BIG. DUMB. JOCK.

Charlie has no time for Jackson's antics. Not when he's stealing her food or teases her to no end, making her tingle in all the right places. But if she's ever going to have a boyfriend, she'd choose one who isn't a Neanderthal. One with manners and actual time to spend with her. Not a hulking man-child who cruises the strip at night in his Big. Dumb. Truck.
