Heather The longer I stay, the more life seems to settle. After all the hardships and headaches this small town gave me, I want to linger past the end of the year. New friendships at work help. Having my privacy and solitude heals me. When my ex shows up, proving that I can run but not hide, all the careful peace I'm letting into my life is shattered. I won't be able to move on with him watching me. I can't even breathe with him near. If my landlord didn't stand up for me, I would be halfway back to the city, dragged back to that horrible man by now. I'm grateful Roarke intervened, but asking him to butt out of my life doesn't seem to stick. Because it's becoming a lie. I want him right here, with me. If only I could convince myself that it will last. Roarke I know when to back down. I'm not aggressive by nature. Yet, the second I see her scared and locked in panic, nothing will stop me from defending her. No one will talk me out of facing the arrogant stranger who insists that she is his. I want Heather to be mine. To fit with me. I thought I was done with women, with their drama, but it's not so easy walking away from this sexy, troubled woman with too many secrets. I won't push. I'll be patient and approach at her pace. It's bliss when we cave. Our surrender is too raw and real to consider that we couldn't belong together. But her past isn't staying behind her. When something new, something different threatens her, I'm at a loss for what to believe. How can she seem so right for me when fate is determined to yank us apart?

Life is the most difficult exam…. I never thought I'd see my name smeared all over the campus gossip sites. Yet there it was, in black and white, my name and the word Scandal. It all started with a blurry photo showing me and my Teaching Assistant kissing when we weren't even supposed to be dating. Now it's all over campus. They're threatening to take away his job and kick him out of school altogether. If that happens, I'll be forever known as that girl who tried to spread her legs for a grade. No matter how hard I protest, no matter who I go to in my quest for understanding, all I get is rejection. No one wants to listen to my side of the story. They don't care I'm in love. They don't care I'm an adult and I have a right to make my own decisions. The optics of the situation are bad, and that's all the college can focus on. There comes a time in everyone's life when they must stand up and draw a line in the sand. I have to find a way out to save my reputation and his job. Even if I have to throw myself under a bus, so be it. But are we in love enough to get through this?

Heather I'm stupid to stay. With my ex hanging around, getting too close for comfort, the only thing that makes sense is to go. To run. Fighting back seems impossible. Putting roots down and really letting love in feels too risky. A job is waiting for me somewhere far away, somewhere safe. I could take off and have a redo. Maybe this time, I might get over the trauma of my past. But running from this small town—again—would mean giving up on the one man who seems prepared to fight for me. He'll fight with me, too, but how can I truly know if I'm strong enough to lean on love and survive this threat from my past? Roarke I jinxed myself when I said I didn't want drama. Between my ex-wife and my troublemaker of a niece, I'm loaded with women causing hell in my life. When it comes to the gorgeous woman in the cabin next to mine, though, I try not to give up on her pushing me away. No one will tell what's going on. She won't open up and explain herself. It takes someone getting hurt to prompt her to sharing about what she wants to escape. But now, her threat is endangering someone in my life, someone I can't abandon. I never thought I would have to have my heart torn into two. As much as I want to fight for a future with the woman I want to make my forever, I must decide if I can choose love over the duty to family.

Soccer is the world's favorite pastime, a passion for billions around the globe. In the United States, however, the sport is a distant also-ran behind football, baseball, basketball, and hockey. Why is America an exception? And why, despite America's leading role in popular culture, does most of the world ignore American sports in return? Offside is the first book to explain these peculiarities, taking us on a thoughtful and engaging tour of America's sports culture and connecting it with other fundamental American exceptionalisms. In so doing, it offers a comparative analysis of sports cultures in the industrial societies of North America and Europe. The authors argue that when sports culture developed in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, nativism and nationalism were shaping a distinctly American self-image that clashed with the non-American sport of soccer. Baseball and football crowded out the game. Then poor leadership, among other factors, prevented soccer from competing with basketball and hockey as they grew. By the 1920s, the United States was contentedly isolated from what was fast becoming an international obsession. The book compares soccer's American history to that of the major sports that did catch on. It covers recent developments, including the hoopla surrounding the 1994 soccer World Cup in America, the creation of yet another professional soccer league, and American women's global preeminence in the sport. It concludes by considering the impact of soccer's growing popularity as a recreation, and what the future of sports culture in the country might say about U.S. exceptionalism in general.

What turns out to be a hot mess is made sweeter when one of the guys offers to give up his room so she's got her own bedroom. It's her brother, so easy-peasy, right? Plus, living with a couple of hot, athletic- guys might help break her out of her shell. It's got to be win-win.
