About this series
He was my best friend until...he kissed me.
Olivia
To say that I'm excited to have my best friend come live with me is an understatement. Even though he's not my boyfriend and I would never look at him as such, I'm excited that with him around, I'm no longer the ninth wheel.
Plus, having a movie buddy to watch my favorite movie Dirty Dancing is a plus. Even if he rolls his eyes everytime we watch it.
Derek
I have one semester of freedom until my parents force me to persure a relationship with a girl who is beneficial to our family. Sure, I come from a rich family with loads of connections, but I'm trapped. I want to love who I want to love and not who my parents want me to marry.
I want to love Olivia.
But I'll settle for being her friend and spending the rest of my senior year feeling free.
And I was fine, until my feeligs became to hard to ignore.
She's the one girl who can make me smile. The one girl who understands me. And the one girl who doesn't use me for my family.
I just hope that when this is all over, I haven't lost my best friend in the process.
If you love best friends to lovers stories with carefree female leads and strong heros, you'll love The Fullback and his Best Friend. The FINAL installment of The Ballerina Academy series.

He thought he knew what he wanted. Turns out, all he wanted was her. Collette I'd kill to be the kind of dancer my mom wants me to be, but it's just not in the cards. I'm sick of dieting. I'll never fit into the perfect ballerina mold and I'm tired of wishing that I could. I'm over it. I'm done trying. I'm perfectly content to dance alone in the dark while the rest of the school is sleeping. Ethan Coach says our football team needs discipline. That dancing alongside a bunch of prissy prima donnas is how we'll learn our lesson. Only problem? I don't have time for ballet. Not when I'm busting my butt to be the star quarterback, the dutiful son, and the perfect student…all so I can achieve my father's dream. When I meet Collette, I can't help but take notice. She's a vision of grace and beauty all wrapped up in snark and sass. And she helps me see that my own dreams aren't so stupid after all. I just wish she could see that in herself. But when I try to bring her out into the light, I can feel her slipping away. Her walls are built up so high, I fear they'll never come down. I want to love her like she deserves—but that's just the problem. She doesn't believe she deserves it.

He thought he had her figured out. Turns out, he was wrong. Bianca Everyone at the ballet academy think they know me—the prima donna. The diva. The mean girl. They're wrong. What they don't know is that I'm moments away from losing my meticulously planned out life. I'm not one to show weakness but my ankle has a different agenda. Adding Ryan to that equation only complicates things more and suddenly the only person who can save my future—and my secrets—is the one person I'm not sure I can trust. Ryan I've spend my life not caring. If it doesn't involve Mom or my kid sister, Rosie, I don't care. Period. But there's something about Bianca. Something about her desperate desire to hide the fact that she's a pageant queen that I can't help but involve myself in. Sure, it's black mail—she does what I ask and I keep her secret—but I really think I can help her loosen up. After all, that's my speciality. Until things aren't as simple anymore and suddenly, my feelings are deeper than I like. I come from a man who leaves, so why do I think I'd be different with Bianca? It's better for me to stay away than for me to break her. And the last thing I want to do is break her.

- The Wide Receiver and His Best Friend's Little Sister: The Ballerina Academy, #3

His job was to protect her. Feelings weren't supposed to get involved. Eve I've been in love with my brother's best friend for as long as I can remember. Once upon a time he was my knight in shining armor, but now? He acts like I'm his worst enemy. I don't know why Cooper Jenkins insists on keeping me at arm's length—which is hard to do when he's my partner at the Academy—or why he insists on shielding me from every other boy at school. I don't want to be at Oakwood high anymore than he seems to want me there, so why won't he leave me alone? Cooper When my best friend enlisted I made one promise: protect his little sister. And I'll do that, even if it means pissing her off and making her hate me. Besides, I'd rather she hate me than know how I truly feel. If I give into temptation and make her mine, I'll be breaking my vow in every way possible. But there's something about her. Something in her gaze that is drawing me in and terrifying me at the same time. And the more I'm around her, the more I begin to fear that perhaps, the only person who can truly hurt Eve? Is me. If you love big, teddy bear heroes who only want to protect the heroine and snarky heroines, you'll love the Wide Receiver and his Best Friend's Little Sister.
