Falling For Dad's College Rival: A Steamy Standalone Instalove Romance

BROOKE
Any other function and I’d be glad to be my dad’s ‘date’.
He’s supported me through everything and all on his own as
the best single dad in the world.
But his college reunion?
When he asks, the face I make says it all until I learn who
else will be there.
Dad’s adversary growing up through school and college was
always Trent Latham.
What started out as friendly competition ended in a bitter feud,
apparently. And dad’s never forgotten.
Never came close to the level of success Trent enjoys either.
Does dad really want to put himself through all that again? I
mean. He hasn’t seen these people for over twenty years.
Me on the other hand, I’ve kinda got a secret crush on Trent.
Not that a younger girl like me really stands a chance with an
older guy like Trent, but a girl can dream.
Or could I?
It isn’t long before I realize that apart from raising me just
right being my dad’s one true success, he stands a very real
chance of losing me to his old rival too.
TRENT
Reunions aren’t my thing.
Especially when I consider what an asshole I was to most
people when I was younger, but age does mellow a man
somewhat.
So does success.Security.
Money.
It can’t buy love, I know that for a fact. But it can make a
man more confident and stable in life.
Especially a man who already knows what he wants.
Mike Wheatley will be there…
The thought makes my lip curl.
He’s the one guy I used to look up to, even though he never
knew it and thought very little about me himself. But I showed
him in the end.
I showed ‘em all.
Yeah, I was an arrogant Jock, flunked most classes but got all
the scholarships, all the cash, and prizes a college football star
got in those days.
I made my way in life from there, never even thinking about
Mike Wheatley much, until now.
Sure, I’ll go. Even if it’s just to stick it to him one more time.
Fucking know it all. I heard he had a kid right after college,
but his wife bailed.
Boo-hoo.
When I see the angel on his arm when I get to the reunion, I
figure he’s paid a lot of blue collar money to this girl
