Love by the Yard Series

In Chicago they say Speed kills, or at least they have for the last seven years since the handsome Running Back Jerome Speed led the Chicago Grizzlies to divisional and conference championships. Danika Albright’s privileged upbringing has most people believing she wants for nothing. As the daughter of a self-made billionaire, she shouldn’t, but her father never wanted his children to be spoiled and demanded they make their own way with little to no help from him. While working her way through school as a stylist, she crosses paths with a local football star with his own issues.

Offensive linemen are considered the silent protectors of the game. Always expected to be there, but never seen by the fans. Whether by accident or circumstance, Dalton Gresham has been known as the Blood Thirsty Bear of the Gridiron since his rookie year. With fans wearing number 77 with fake blood dripped on it, can this giant in football shake his monster status?

Ten years ago, Coach Xavier Jackson was poised to complete a lifelong journey. When he wasn’t picked up after the seventh round of the draft was over, he was left to wonder if his dreams of playing professional football were finally over. Instead, with a chance as a free agent, he made good on his, but the lure of off-field activities led the tight end to make the worst decision of his life.

For Beau, it will be the first time his father’s money won’t help to smooth over any missteps he makes.
