Not a Hero

By Jenessa Beyer

When I left high school, I was on top of the world. With a football scholarship to my dream school and women... well, let's just say a lot of options were wide open for me.

Then it all came crashing down.

Now, I'm back at my class reunion. As an object of curiosity-or maybe pity-rather than the star. I planned to make an appearance as a favor to my old coach, then leave before too many questions were asked.

Until I saw her. Leah.

In school, we ran with different crowds. She was the skinny nerd who always made it very clear that she hated jocks like me.

Now, the not-ugly duckling has turned into a swan, but my intentions for her aren't as pure as some fairy tale. I want to get to know every inch of her curvy body. To feel her under me. Whether it's in the backseat of my car or in my bed, it doesn't matter.

Her eyes flash with the same old anger but when I kiss her, she melts into me. She wants me as much as I want her. And though she claims I'm just an itch she needs to scratch, that one night is all we'll ever have, I know I need more.

All I have to do is prove that I'm not the same guy I was when we were teenagers. Easy.

Or not.

After all, Leah is the most stubborn woman I've ever known. And she has no reason to trust me.

But she is going to be mine

Not a Hero is a short, steamy romance about a reunion between former opposites. It contains no cheating and a guaranteed HEA
