Game On: A High School Bully Romance (The Ballers of Rockport High Book 1)
Page 28
Watching it all seems so surreal. When I saw myself here in my head when I made the decision to transfer to RHS and try out for the Warriors, it was me in the thick of things. I saw myself fly down the court and make the layup to win the game by one. I saw myself getting hiked up on Ryan Linc’s shoulders. I thought they would all praise me.
Instead, they hate me. Again.
Lake O’Brien screams out a triumphant growl. Hayes, Alec, and Sloan have the biggest smiles on their faces. Not one of them is looking to see where I am. Not one. It’s a far cry from when Alec said he couldn’t wait to share his baseball victory with me. They don’t care about sharing this moment, so why do I still ache to share it with them?
I grab my unused sweat towel and head off toward my special locker room, so I can change out of my crisp jersey. This is just any other day, and to think that I still have three months of junior year left, then basketball camp before we’re back here to do it all over again.
The Ballers may have the upper hand at RHS. I underestimated them, their cruelty, their ability to look the other way when something hits them over the head, but camp is a whole other story. Their asses are mine.

A Sky So Dark: Safe Haven Academy Series, Book 1
Safe Haven Academy Series Blurb
Macie Davenport’s life is over.
The girl who has everything is reduced to an empty black hole of nothing they call Safe Haven Academy. It’s where bad souls go for reform, but end up getting worse until they’re shipped out to another “sheltered place” with an equally uninspired name. It doesn’t matter what they dress it up as, Macie knows places like this are for people like her—people everyone wants to forget.
The screwed up part? Macie’s not bad. Torn with grief and living in a fantasy world? Yes. A psychopath? Not likely.
Worse yet, she can’t forget. Not even a little. Not even trying with all her might, she’ll never forget the consequences of the night the sky turned dark.
Then, they force themselves into her life. A shining light in the bleakness around her, three boys irrevocably change her fate. Can she allow the sun to shine through? Or will Macie give up before giving them a chance?
