The Wrong Game by Charlie M. Matthews

Taylor Lawson: Tall, tanned, and stupidly muscular, Taylor Lawson was the definition of a bad boy–an overconfident footballer whose arrogance knew no bounds. His deep, brown eyes were a thing of beauty–enough to make you want to bare your soul to him and a whole lot more. When his father was sent to prison, Taylor’s life spiralled out of control. Everything he thought he knew was a lie, and his passion for the game took a backseat to everything else in his life. Wasted, and angry at the world, Taylor could see no way out. He was soon forced to realise that not everything in life was easy. But fighting your fears and taking back control is the easy part. Learning to hold on to that control would be his biggest challenge yet.

Lola Henderson: After the accident that ripped her world out from underneath her feet, Lola struggled to find her place in the world again. Living through an endless nightmare, so scared and unsure of herself, and with fear playing a continuous loop, she was fighting a losing battle. Winslow Falls was meant to be the fresh start she needed to find herself again, but when she locked eyes with the star striker on the college football team, she knew she was done for. Would Lola continue to avoid the boy that made her feel things she knew was wrong? Or would fate throw them together, forcing them onto an unlikely path of friendship?

“Two wrongs didn’t make a right. But in our case they did.”
