Five. That's how old I was when I picked up a ball for the very first time during flag football-something my mom had signed me up for. Nine. That's when I decided I'd stop at nothing until I played football at the highest level. Fifteen. That's when my father informed me that the only future I had was working at his private investigation firm. Seventeen. That's when I tried to escape the future that had been laid out for me. Tried to cut all ties that connected me to my own blood. Spoiler alert: It didn't work. They still own me. Eighteen. That's when I was told if I completed this one job, I'd be cut loose. Free. I'd finally be free. It seemed easy enough. Then, I meet her. You know, the one who makes you do all kinds of stupid, wacky stuff because you feel things you've never felt before. Yeah ... that's the one. Here's the real kicker: What happens when the girl you've likely already fallen in love with is the one you need to betray in order to leave behind a life you can't stand? Well, that's a damn good question. I'm dying to know myself. *This is a stand alone novel in the Brooks University series. This is Sloane and Knox's story.
The world never granted me much. No warm and cozy home to rest my head, no loving parents to cheer at my games or remember my birthday, and certainly no finer things in life. Just a damn good arm to throw a football and a hunger inside of me that I hoped would lead me straight to the NFL. I was twelve years old when the universe finally delivered its first gift. A beautiful angel, though my angel certainly wore no halo. She dressed in the same tattered clothes that I did, and her eyes were as lost and broken as mine were. All it took was one look at her face, and I knew she had been made for me and me alone. From that day forward, my soul was hooked, taken, a slave to hers. Nothing could com...

Long before the Patriots took the 21st century by storm and became the most dominant team in NFL history, pro football was something entirely different in New England, something comically atrocious and riddled with heartbreak. Before those juggernaut years of Bill Belichick, Tom Brady, and sold-out crowds at Gillette Stadium came a hapless franchise that managed only a single playoff victory in a quarter century and spent its entire first decade of existence just trying to establish a permanent home field (and even when they did, none of the toilets worked). In From Darkness to Dynasty, bestselling author Jerry Thornton irreverently chronicles those easily glossed-over, downtrodden decades--...
