Renee Heart is used to being overlooked.She cleans stadium floors at night, blends smoothies at dawn, and squeezes in senior-level biology lectures in between. Her life is a grind, but she’s determined to finish her degree without loans—even if it means no sleep and no time for herself.

Adrian Cole can’t stop missing.The rookie UBA star was drafted for his deadly three-point shot, but under the lights, nothing falls. Then a late-night run-in with Renee changes everything. Her sharp mouth humbles him, her strength inspires him, and her heart steadies him in ways no one else ever has.

What starts with banter in a gym turns into stolen moments, a kiss in the parking lot, and a fire neither of them expected. But Renee’s reality is bigger than romance—she’s grinding through school, drowning in tuition bills, and working shifts just to stay afloat.

Adrian has the spotlight, the platform, and the power to give her a different kind of life. But if she lets him in, will Renee lose the independence she’s fought so hard to protect—or find out that love is the one thing she doesn’t have to do alone?

Courtside Adrian and Renee is a fast-paced instalove romance with heart, heat, and the signature softness of a Nina High short romance.

Ryan Prescott has just begun her career as a cheerleader for the Florida Flamettes, the high energy squad backing the hottest basketball team in the league, the Florida Flames. For the world watching, she’s a radiant performer living a dream. But behind the pom-poms and bright lights, Ryan’s life is tightly controlled and is cracking at the edges.

Adopted into a wealthy interracial family, Ryan’s life has always been about appearances. Her mother, a shrewd and calculating businesswoman, cares about little beyond the family's financial stature. Her father, a coldly ambitious man obsessed with legacy and public image, is dead set on running for mayor. To ensure his campaign success, he strikes a deal with the current mayor and agrees that Ryan will marry his son, Michael. He’s clean-cut on the outside, and a mess behind closed doors.

Dancing is the only part of her life she owns. On the court, during halftime, when the music pulses and the crowd roars. She feels free. It’s the one place where her smile is real.

Enter Lennox King, the charismatic, fiercely talented point guard of the Florida Flames. He’s everything Michael isn’t. He’s grounded, magnetic, and respectful. The moment Lennox sees Ryan, he's captivated, but not just by her beauty, but by the quiet sadness in her eyes, the fire beneath her surface. When he volunteers to be her dance partner for a memorable halftime show, sparks fly.

At first, Ryan tries to keep her distance. This routine is just another performance, she tells herself. But as practices stretch into late nights and stolen glances deepen into something more, Ryan is forced to face a terrifying truth. For the first time in her life, she wants more.

But wanting more means risking everything! Her family’s approval, her safety, her carefully polished world. And if anyone finds out, especially Michael, the consequences could be catastrophic.

Idol Kensington

Every time Sevyn walks into a room, my heart betrays me; racing like it’s trying to warn me. Yet, I gravitate to him at the same time. There’s something about him, this mix of rugged edge and untamed danger, that makes it impossible to stay away. But I’ve been down this road before; swept up by the charm, only to be left picking up the pieces. The scars from my last dude still sting, and I swore I’d never let someone get close again. Especially an athlete. Yet, here I am, fighting a battle between my mind, screaming at me to run, and my heart, pulling me deeper into his orbit.

Sevyn Majors

Whenever I’m around shorty, I feel like I’ve finally found something real. My person. The one. But then settles the guilt, reminding me she’s too good for me. Too pure for the shit I come with. This trade was supposed to be a fresh start; a new city, new faces, a clean slate to outrun my demons. But no matter how fast I move, they’re always there. And then there’s her, standing in the middle of all my chaos like the calm I didn’t even know I needed. She feels like peace in a world that’s never given me any. With her, I see a life untouched by trauma, yet I can't shake the feeling that I’ll ruin her.

Emery

One night, three of us, too much tequila. A quiet invitation into Izair Yves’s bed that turned into something even the blogs couldn’t have written better. He said he just wanted me for a night. But mornings get messy when you wake up as someone’s wife. I built my name as the fun girl everyone wanted on their feed and at their table. I’m about my bread first. I never cared to wear a man’s last name, just his wallet and his attention.

Izair

I don’t do forever. I don’t even do mornings.

I’m a UBA starter. I’ve got championship rings, trophies, and headlines, but I’ve never been a one-woman man. That was the whole point of having the threesome. Wedding rings never meant shit to me.

And Emery? She’s a reflection of me in all the worst ways. Ambitious, selfish, and the kind of industry girl who can play dirty and still come out on top.

But now she’s mine. Both of us playing a game neither one of us has in our playbook.
