Oleander Springs - La série

USA Today Bestselling Author Mariah Dietz will have you swooning, laughing, and staying up late to finish this childhood friends-to-lovers sports romance! Hudson McKinley, starting quarterback for the Camden Knights, is preparing for the most crucial season of his college career—when a familiar stranger returns and his entire world gets turned upside down—or possibly right side up. Evelyn Watts spent every summer of her childhood in Oleander Springs, escaping the orderly confines of her life and submerging herself into the chaos and fun found there. But those summers ended four years ago, and during that time, new plans were paved, ones that required focus, discipline, and a new ending that didn’t involve Oleander Springs. Until she drove those plans off the rails. Now, Evelyn’s back in Oleander Springs, and Hudson’s no longer looking at her like she’s just a friend, and she realizes that childhood crushes evolve into adult fantasies. It was supposed to be a temporary return, but are they ready to make a play for more?

A friends-with-benefits pact with my new roommate is like playing with fire, but here I am, lighting the match. Nolan Payne, football star and my new, unexpected roommate, is everything I should avoid: charming, popular, and off-limits, according to my other roommate—his sister. But Nolan is like a play you can’t predict. We begin swapping pranks and sharing laughs, making my heart forget it’s not supposed to want him. Then, one night, he kisses me. Just a test, he says, but it shatters all my defenses. It’s better, so much better than I could’ve imagined. So, we make a pact: friends with benefits, nothing more. It’s the perfect solution, keeping us within the boundaries we’ve set and house rules, except it feels like we’re breaking every rule without even trying. But as the lines blur between casual and forever, are we both ready to take this new route?

A romance that will have you on the edge of your seat by USA Today Bestselling Author Mariah Dietz. Greyson Meyers can’t afford the distraction of a relationship. His focus is football and earning his degree to ensure his mom never has to work another day. Mila Atwool has it all together—at least, that’s what everyone thinks. But after an incident fractured her safety and trust last year, Mila’s been struggling to maintain appearances. The two strike a deal: Mila will pose as his girlfriend to make his life appear better balanced so he can earn a sponsorship, and in turn, Grey will train her in self-defense to help her rebuild a sense of security. Two and a half years of friendship ensured their fake relationship would be a safe bet—or so they thought. But what was a simmering tension quickly boils over, and both are terrified of getting burned. They realize this new zone may be impossible to escape unscathed.
