The Captain's Dirty Little Secret

Roxanne “Roxie” Jones spent her whole life learning how to survive humiliation with her head held high. So when her co-captain tries to make her the joke of the bus ride home, Roxie refuses to back down. Then her eyes land on Zachary Prescott. Star quarterback. Small-town golden boy. The kind of boy people worship without question. “There’s a perfectly good seat right here,” she says before sitting on his lap in front of everyone. The entire bus goes silent. That single moment changes everything. Because Zac should’ve pushed her off. Instead, his hands tighten around her waist. What starts as flirting turns into obsession. Late-night calls. Bloody knuckles after games. Jealousy sharp enough to cut skin. They become the couple everyone envies while destroying each other behind closed doors. Roxie thinks Zac is hiding something from her. She’s right. And when the truth finally comes out, it won’t just ruin their relationship. It will ruin all of them. In a town obsessed with football, reputation is everything. Everyone is watching. Everyone has an opinion. And everyone wants a piece of the golden couple that seems to have it all. But first love is dangerous when it's built on secrets. And some secrets are big enough to destroy everything. Some first loves are sweet. Theirs was the kind that leaves scars forever. — Description from novelcodex.org
