Q&A with Jerica MacMillan Q: What’s special about the Players of Marycliff University series? A: When I wrote these, I wanted them to be highly relatable. Yes, the guys are all hot college football players, but they have normal struggles with balancing school, family, and career goals with their personal relationships. Since it’s college romance, there’s a big emphasis on figuring out what you want out of life, but I think that’s a theme that resonates long past college age. I do consider them a sports romance, but the football isn’t really the focus of the stories. The focus is on the characters and their relationships. Q: What is the best order to read the books? They’re all interconnected standalones, so it’s not completely necessary to read them in order, though I think it provides the best experience if you do. They were written and published in the following order: Summer Fling Convenient Fall Managed Hearts Q: Why should readers give these books a try? Because they’re awesome!
