Big Girl Blitz

"Nothing is hotter and more fun than Danielle Allen's writing." -- Ali Hazelwood Jazmyn Payne fled the small town of Chance the minute she graduated high school. But for one week every summer she returns in order to spend time with her favorite person in the world--Aunt Addison. Even amidst health issues, Aunt Addy encourages Jazz to open herself up to fun, new experiences. When Jazz arrives for her most recent trip, she finds that Aunt Addy's condition has taken a drastic turn. The thought of anything happening to her aunt, combined with the memories of her childhood in Chance, pushes Jazmyn to take her mind off things. So, when Lamar Anderson sits next to her at the local sports bar, he provides the distraction she needs. Jazz and Lamar click instantly over their mutual love of football, and their connection only grows from there. Being with him made all her troubles--her divorce, Aunt Addy's illness, the drama in Chance--disappear. But as real life consumes them both, and Jazz returns to Maryland, the intimacy they shared seems like a thing of the past. After two months apart, it would make sense that their initial spark wouldn't survive Jazmyn's grief, Lamar's newfound popularity, and the pressures of perfection. Right?
