Elle ne jure que par les études, il ne rêve que de sport. Entre eux, ça va être tendu… très tendu ! Leur première rencontre restera gravée dans leur mémoire à tous les deux : un pont, un précipice, juste un pas à faire. Ce jour-là, Lizzie a empêché Seth d’en finir avec la vie. Trois ans plus tard, elle le retrouve sur le campus, lorsqu’elle écope de la lourde tâche de l’aider à améliorer ses notes. Sauf que Seth ne veut pas de son aide. La dernière fois qu’elle lui a porté secours, Lizzie a commis la pire erreur possible et il ne veut plus jamais avoir affaire à elle ! Alors que le footballeur brisé refuse tout rapprochement, l’étudiante insiste pour lui tendre une nouvelle fois la main. Saura-t-il la saisir ? *** – Je ne suis pas une reine, contré-je. – Tu es la mienne, Queenie, susurre-t-il contre mon oreille. Son souffle chaud me prend par surprise, et je couine comme une souris quand il mordille mon lobe droit. Bon sang, il veut ma mort, aujourd’hui ! – Qu’est-ce que… ? Pas le temps de protester qu’il me retourne contre lui. J’ai les mains en l’air, pleines de mousse, et les yeux écarquillés de surprise. – Qu’est-ce que tu fais ? piaillé-je. J’ai les doigts trempés ! Tu vas être tout mouillé ! – Aucun souci, me répond-il en enfouissant sa tête dans mon cou. De toute façon, j’ai pas l’intention de garder ces fringues encore très longtemps. Hein ? Ai-je bien entendu ? Merde, vu la façon dont il se met à suçoter la peau fine de mon cou, je ne me pose même plus la question. J’émets un râle rauque sans réussir à le retenir, et ses lèvres frémissent sous mon oreille. – Seth… gémis-je. Tu es en train de me rendre folle. – C’est le but, ricane-t-il en se redressant. – C’est cruel, le rabroué-je avec une moue boudeuse. Cette fois-ci, je n’hésite plus, et le frappe mollement contre sa chemise grise, qui fonce sous mes doigts mouillés. – Sauf si je te donne ce que tu veux.

In our media-saturated culture, momentous events occur quickly, as news and images are broadcast around the country and the world. We are often riveted by the news and our everyday reality is suddenly changed. Yet, almost as quickly, that critical event is replaced by a new story. The old event fades from memory, and we move on to the next thing before understanding why it commanded our attention and how our world was changed. On April 16, 2007, such an event occurred on the Virginia Tech campus in Blacksburg, Virginia. That day a student killed 32 of his classmates and professors and then turned the gun on himself. The media focused their power and our attention on the campus, the students and faculty of Virginia Tech, and the gunman and his victims. But we have yet to understand fully what happened in Blacksburg. There is a Gunman on Campus brings our thoughts back to the shocking campus shootings and the public reactions to the event, shining needed light on what occurred at the university, how American society reacted, and how it all fits into contemporary culture. The contributors to this insightful and compelling volume preserve and deepen our memory of April 16th. Many of the authors are distinguished men and women of letters, and some were on the Virginia Tech campus the day when the shots rang out. From the psychology of the shooter to the role of media in covering the event to parallels to other American tragedies such as Columbine, the chapters constitute an incisive portrait of early 21st century America.

Crosby Rhodes is considered a god when it comes to Western Wildcats football. And who knows? Maybe he actually is one. There’s certainly no shortage of girls on campus who agree with the sentiment. They swoon over his pretty face, dark messy hair, and hard body honed from years of lifting and two-a-day practices. That alone makes him catnip for the female species. Add a lip ring and surly disposition to the package and you can understand what all the fuss is about. Would I be included in that majority? Hell, no. As far as I’m concerned, Crosby can eat shit and die. The guy is a major jerk. Not to mention, a pain in my assets. And that’s putting it nicely. For reasons I’ve never understood, he goes out of his way to humiliate and hurt me. His barbed comments are always a direct hit before exploding on impact. I’d love to know what I did to elicit such hatred but that would involve conversing with him and I refuse to do that. There’s only one more semester before graduation. Surely, we can get through the next six months without coming to blows. That’s the hope, anyway. Which is exactly why I’m thrown off guard when my nemesis pulls me aside and suggests a truce. Do I necessarily trust him after everything he’s put me through? Nope. For the time being, I’ll agree so there can once again be peace in the kingdom all the while keeping him at a firm distance. Except that turns out to be impossible. Everywhere I go, there he is. It’s like I can’t get away from him. More shocking than that, he’s actually being nice. If stomping out the underlying attraction that constantly flares to life between us was difficult before, it’s all but impossible now. But that’s exactly what I’m going to do. I’ve been burned by one athlete, I refuse to allow it to happen again. ----- “It's got heart, steamy chemistry, and one very likable heroine” -Valeen, GoodReads “It’s a rollercoaster of emotions you won’t be able to get rid off, not for a long time” -Lucy, GoodReads “Brooke and Crosby’s story is now my new favorite from the series” -Maddie, GoodReads “A satisfying read with an appealing heroine and a sexy hero who finds HEA after an angsty journey” -Jody, GoodReads “This was a light, fun story with secrets, romance and so much heart that I fell for Crosby just like Brooke did” -Sharon, GoodReads “An enemies to lovers that shows you that there is ALWAYS more than meets the eye” - Maddy, GoodReads Read the entire Campus Series Campus Player Campus Heartthrob Campus Flirt Campus Hottie Campus God Campus Legend Topics- New adult, new adult romance, sports romance, college romance, football romance, enemies-to-lovers, secret romance, secret identity, bad boy, love/hate, opposites attract, playboy, forbidden, best friend's ex-girlfriend, Campus Series.
