I almost hooked up with the two most popular football players on campus. And just when I think I’ll never see them again, they show up in my classes the next day. But instead of making fun of me, they offer me the deal of a lifetime. The three of us. No strings attached. All semester long. Our extracurricular activities help keep them focused on the football season, While letting me blow off steam so I can study for my master’s degree. And soon their roommate becomes my third athlete lover. Can we keep it physical long enough for them to win the Conference Championship? Or is love more than just a team game? NECESSARY ROUGHNESS is an extra spicy reverse harem college sports romance. There’s no cheating, no cliffhangers—and a guaranteed HEA!
