Fraternize by Rachel Van Dyken
Release Date: September 12th

Genre: Contemporary Romance

New York Times bestselling author Rachel Van Dyken kicks off a brand-new series in which romance is a game and love is a touchdown.

Emerson just made her dream come true as a professional cheerleader for her favorite pro football team. But even though the plus-size athlete is breaking down boundaries, she still has to contend with the massive rulebook. Carbs? Nope. Chocolate? Definitely not. Still, Emerson loves her curves, and she’ll rock the hell out of this job even if it kills her. Except for one mandate that is easier read than done…

No fraternizing with the players.

Problem one is Miller Quinton: Emerson’s first love, first sex, and the guy who still ignites her daydreams and R-rated fantasies. Thrown back together, Miller and Emerson feel the undeniable pull of passion again, even if the conflict that tore them apart seems insurmountable. Then there’s way-too-sexy Grant Sanchez. He has a serious reputation with the ladies, and when it comes to winning someone he wants, he doesn’t let anyone stand in his way.

Now Emerson is breaking every rule in the manual. But what she doesn’t know is that she’s part of a wicked little game—one that could steal both her dream and her heart.

 

Stephanie’s 4 Star Review:

I received a copy of this book from the author for an honest review.

You know, there will always be one boy you’ll remember forever.  Your first love.  The one you made promises with.  Wore his jacket/ring/whatever it was he gave you to symbolize your relationship.  Well Emerson and Miller are no different.  They were best friends since the age of seven.  He took her virginity ten years later.  Just before he moved away.

You’d think they were destined for each other.  That’s probably what you thought about your own first love.  Sometimes that’s not how it ends though.  There are other temptations.  Other factors that are inserted into the story.  Enter Grant Sanchez.

He made no bones about wanting to get in Emerson’s pants.  To him, though, she’s different.  He can wait – until she’s ready.  She’s worth more than a one night stand never to be seen again.  No matter they’d see each other during work because she’s one of the professional cheerleaders for his professional football team.  Regardless of the no fraternization policy the team has in place.

It’s a bit hairy when your first love plays for the same team.  Except you hate each other.  Or so you thought.

Well, let’s just say there’s a lot to work out in this story.  Rachel Van Dyken has concocted a new fairy tale story – one where the princess has to decide on her feelings for the princes.  One where the characters are all friends but want to be more.

I loved how she spun this love story around all the characters involved.  The secondary ones were just as important at the primary.  It took me a bit to get into the start of the book but once I did I devoured the rest of it.  I definitely think you should give this one a try.

 

Excerpt:

“The best.” His lips grazed my ear. “Curves, know this,” His breath was hot on my neck, “If you need to cry, I’ll hold you until you’re done. Sometimes the only way to get over things, is to walk through them, but that doesn’t mean you have to do it on your own.”

My breath hitched in my chest. “Does that mean you’re going to walk with me?”

“That’s all I’ve wanted since meeting you.” He pulled back and gripped my hand. “You know, other than sex.”

I laughed, “You’re ridiculous, you know that right?”

“But, I did just make you laugh, when minutes ago you were crying. I hate those tears, Curves. Never want to be the cause of them, ever.”

“Don’t make promises you can’t keep.”

“I’m not.” He said it so sternly that I sucked in a breath. “I think I need to use that hand now…maybe on your chest, possibly that shirt.”
