Quarterback Sneak (Wolves of FMU Book 1)
by A. J. Manney
About this book
He’s the star quarterback everyone wants. She’s the freshman who just wants to lay low. But when an enemy targets her, he’ll risk more than his position as quarterback to keep her safe.
Evie thought college would finally be her fresh start. After convincing her mom to leave her father, she’s ready to put the past behind her—new town, new school, new life. Making a friend her first week feels like a good sign. Jace is charming, easy to talk to, and seems to understand her loneliness. But something about him doesn’t feel quite right.
Then there’s Zane Blackwood—junior, star quarterback of FMU’s Barracudas, and the kind of guy who turns heads wherever he goes. He’s confident, protective, and always seems to show up when she needs him most. But Zane has secrets—dangerous ones. Secrets about who he really is…and who Evie is to him. When Jace’s friendly façade changes into something far more sinister, Evie discovers she’s stumbled into a world of danger, dark magic, and a bond she never could have imagined. Now she’s caught between a predator who won’t let her go and the wolf who was born to protect her.
Each book in the Wolves of FMU series will feature a different couple. They can be read as a stand-alone as each book will have its own HEA, but the storyline will continue through the entire series. For the best reader experience, consider reading them in order. The Wolves of FMU are focused, intense, and wholly focused on their individual sports...until they find their mates. Each book is intense and full of sizzling fade-to-black romance.

Oh man.. I read this on my kindle for such a long stretch that I triggered my vertigo. THAT is how much I loved it. It is late and I am tired so let's go through this review together, shall we? No but seriously.. okay, so, AJ has a way of writing such sweet, tender men who will also rip your head off for the ones they love. True touch her and die vibes, you know? I am a sucker for fated mates and wolves. Put both into one story, and I am sold. Even with this book being fated mates, it was still...

*I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review. * This is book 1 in the Wolves of FMU series and can be read as a standalone * First person dual pov * Spice: closed door romance (appropriate for older teens and adults) *CW: abandonment, drugging, kidnapping, and PG 13 violence When I first saw the synopsis of this book, I was intrigued and can say that the author sure entertained me with Evie and Zane's story. I loved the university setting and how the characters felt...

I loved this book! I cried and I laughed! I read this book in 2 days because I couldn't put it down. I really want to read book 2 but it only comes in a kindle format that i do not have nor want to have. That part I am disappointed about/ )

Loved this first book of her new series and can’t wait for the next one! I loved how protective Zane was and how he worked so hard to prove she could trust him. Really enjoyed the camaraderie the guys had and am excited to read their stories too! )
