The Great Pick Up Line
Take it away Jennifer!

“I didn’t want you to fall and break your ankle,” Dane said as he wiped the gym floor.. “At least not because of me.” When I didn’t respond to his insult, he added, “You’re not going to call me bitch again, are you, Lucia?”
“I don’t know. Do you deserve it?” I backpedaled toward the net to avoid getting into trouble with Coach.
“I deserve only kindness and affection.” He smirked.
Blocked by Jennifer Lane
College freshman Lucia Ramirez has a secret crush on Dane Monroe. He’s a tall drink of water — blond, brash, and one hell of a volleyball player. ¡Híjole! Lucia hopes her volleyball scholarship to his school will make him notice her.
Too bad what’s noticeable is Dane’s obvious hatred for Lucia. Her family’s politics contradict everything he stands for. And politics are front and center in both their families. Dane’s mother is about to face Lucia’s father in the race for US President.
When Secret Service throws them together, Dane can’t deny his frustrating attraction to Lucia’s athletic curves and sweet faith in the world. Amid the intense pressure of college athletics and presidential politics, can opposites not just attract, but overcome overwhelming odds to be together? Or do their differences block their match from the start?
