ATHLETE/COACH

OFF SIDES TEASER

“If you leave, I’m following you.” The words were out of my mouth before I could think. It didn’t matter, though; they were one hundred percent the truth.

“And do what? Be a coach? We’ll be in the same position.”

“I don’t have to be a coach.” But if I wasn’t, I had no idea what I’d do. I’d follow Dani to the ends of the earth if it meant I could stay with her. There was nothing that could stop me. I didn’t give a shit if I was her coach or not.

“Don’t talk like that. While I know you don’t love it, you need a purpose.”

“My sole purpose for being on this earth is to be with you. As long as I have you, I’ll be happy and fulfilled.”

In an instant, the wetness was back in her eyes, but this time I knew it wasn’t from being sad.

“Declan,” she sighed out my name dreamily, her mouth hovering over mine. “Don’t make me regret this.”

Before I could promise not to, her mouth was on mine. If I couldn’t say it with words, I’d show her with my body.

“Fucking Declan.”

I still couldn’t believe it. Why here? Why wasn’t he still playing in Spain?

“Are you fucking shitting me? Did he follow you here?” Oz growled out.

I shrugged because I had no clue and didn’t really want to think about it. Declan ghosted me. I hadn’t heard a single word from him in over a year, and that hurt. I thought he loved me, but I was stupid and naïve. How on this Earth would we have made a relationship work with him in Spain playing soccer with women throwing themselves at him day and night while I was still in college? I didn’t know, but I thought it could work—until it didn’t.

Now he was here, and I wanted to ruin him the way he ruined me. If I hadn’t felt like something was wrong with me, then maybe I wouldn’t have listened to my coaches when they told me I needed to lose weight. And then maybe I wouldn’t have starved myself to the point of needing professional help.

I wasn’t sure I’d ever be the same again.

Body or soul.

A tall, lean man with golden skin that made every woman want to lick every single inch of it walked toward us. All eyes moved from Coach Parker to the lithe specimen that moved toward us.

I knew that body.

Intimately.

What the hell was he doing here?

This was my safe space. Away from coaches who didn’t prioritize my well-being. Away from the memories of the man who broke my heart.

You know what? I didn’t care. I was going to make his life a living hell just like he’d made mine when he ghosted me.

Declan Hart was going to regret ever stepping foot in Willow Bay.

BLURB:

I never thought I’d have to start over, let alone in my senior year of college.

 

Without my twin brother and my best friend, my life fell apart.

 

Now I was finally healthy and ready to meet my new team—until I saw who the assistant coach was. What was my pro-soccer-playing ex-boyfriend doing in Willow Bay? You know what? I didn’t care. He dropped me like yesterday’s garbage after he told me nothing, not even an ocean, would break us apart.

 

He was a liar.

 

When I took the job as assistant coach, I never thought I’d see Danica Francisco in Willow Bay. I knew her brother lived there, but not her. Why wasn’t she three hours away at UCLA?

 

I was finally getting my life back on track after what I thought was the worst time of my life. Except now, I was thinking taking this job was the worst decision I’d ever made aside from cutting Danica out of my life.

 

Too bad she looks like she wants to kill me and put my body through a wood chipper every time she looks at me.

 

How would I survive being so close to her yet so far away?
