Full Court Press

Keira Vaughn has spent three years owning the spotlight. She's the campus golden girl, the unstoppable point guard, the "safe" star the program can market without flinching. Her starting spot is locked. Her reputation is polished. Her life is controlled down to the last smiling photo. Then the transfer walks in. Jules Bennett is openly queer, brutally talented, and labeled a coach's nightmare everywhere she goes. She doesn't charm. She doesn't beg. She doesn't care that Keira has been the face of the team-because Jules didn't come to admire her. She came to win. Coach Whitlock has one solution: a dual-point system that forces them to share control of the court. And to "help chemistry"? Housing assigns them the same room on the athletes' floor. One closet. One outlet. One bed on away trips. And one very clear rule: do not date teammates. Keira is sure Jules is here to steal her starting position. Jules is sure Keira is the kind of girl who chooses safety over truth. They fight in drills. They collide in scrimmages. They argue chest-to-chest until neither of them remembers what they were mad about. Because the problem isn't that Jules is taking Keira's spot. The problem is that Jules is taking Keira's sleep, her patience, and every rational thought in her head. Now the season is tightening, the campus is watching, and one wrong headline could cost them everything-scholarships, championships, and the future Keira's been trained to protect. But when you've spent your whole life being the safe choice...choosing her might be the bravest play you've ever made.
