Publication Date: 30 April 2014
Synopsis:
What happens when a chance encounter thrusts two very different people from very different backgrounds together? The school is going crazy with Celt Fever, and Alceo Russell is right in the middle of it. He’s on his way to leading his Division I football team to a national title, but something is missing, and to keep his head in the game, he needs to find it. Shy and timid Galynn Pierce is just trying to survive college. Always in the background and always unnoticed Galynn can’t fathom how her life is about to change.
Excerpt
He could tell she didn’t like her body by the way she carried
herself. She wasn’t like all the others who he’d been with. They,
nameless and faceless girls one after another felt like they were
conquering him. They stripped in front of him, bearing it all, not
offering any hint of tease or surprise. They never wanted to leave
anything to the imagination.
But Galynn, she was different. He could
tell she preferred to leave everything in the mind of her beholders.
How could she not be taken? Her innocent nature and timidity were so
refreshing and shockingly enough to Alceo, a turn on.
Review by Gia:
Quarterback Sneak is a great cute read. When I first opened it to read it, I wasn't a big fan of the cover. To me it seemed like a weird cover. I wasn't sure who's bottom that was on the cover. Despite my wariest of the cover, the book turned out to be an amazing read. With Quarterback Sneak, I definitely learned not to judge a book by it's cover.
Galynn is a college student. She's a curvy girl. Her mother is Greek and her father is black. When I read that part that's when I figured out who's bottom was on the cover. :) Alceo (Ceo) is the star quarterback. He has a reputation of a player. Given his footballs status, he has girls falling all over him. Based on the girls he hooks up with, it looks like his type is skinny white girls, that is until he meets Galynn. Despite being a footballs star and being able to have just about any girl he wants, he doesn't have a cocky attitude.
Galynn and Ceo's paths cross and it ends with a steamy night. Galynn fears rejects and feels that she's not Ceo's type so she escapes before he wakes up. Gaylnn has a lot of self doubt because of her curves but she is till a strong character.
Ceo can't get Galynn out if his mind. When he sees her again at the library, they have another great steamy scene. I loved the library scene. They start a relationship. Ceo is a great boyfriend. At times it was hard to believe that he was a big player before but we are reminded of his past when one of the girls he slept with keeps popping up to cause problems. Ceo kept surprising me with the things he did to prove to Galynn that he loved her.
I definitely recommend this quick great read.
