Título: Beneath the Stands (Sugarlake, 2)
Autor: Emily McIntire
Sinopse: From USA Today bestselling author Emily McIntire comes an angsty, best friend's brother, second chance romance and the second interconnected standalone in the Sugarlake series.
Elliot Carson left Sugarlake and has never looked back. Revered as the next big thing in basketball, Eli's a star until an injury ends his career, sending him spiraling with no direction.
But he won't go home.
He can't.
Instead, he accepts a coaching gig at Florida Coast University, determined to leave his past behind. But fate has other plans when Becca, his sister's best friend, shows up as a student and, even worse, becomes the new team manager.
Rebecca Sanger is the preacher's daughter and the town's disappointment. When she ignores her family's demands to come home, she's cut off and needs a job so she can stay enrolled at FCU. She thought she had everything figured out, until Eli Carson―the person she hates more than anything in the world―ends up being her new boss.
Forced together, Becca and Eli's hatred turns to heat, and they start an affair. But disaster quickly strikes, ripping them apart.
Years pass, and Becca's back home, under her parent's thumb, and living a mundane life. When Eli shows up out of the blue with a fiancée in tow, Becca is tasked with planning their wedding.
There's only one problem.
Becca still loves Eli.
And he hates her.
For the second time in their lives, they're forced together, and they'll find out just how thin the line is between hate... and a love that lasts a lifetime.

Sobre a editora
Os livros da editora Bloom Books costumam mergulhar o leitor em histórias intensas de relacionamentos complexos, muitas vezes marcados por paixões conflituosas e personagens moralmente ambíguos. O catálogo revela uma predileção por romances com tons sombrios e dramáticos, onde o controle, o desejo e o poder se entrelaçam em cenários que vão desde universidades elitistas até universos fantásticos e mundos urbanos carregados de tensão. As narrativas frequentemente exploram dilemas emocionais profundos, envolvendo personagens que lutam contra seus próprios demônios e contra forças externas, em contextos que transitam entre o romance contemporâneo e o fantástico.
