CINDERELLA IN CLEATS:
It started just like any other Saturday: Whitney, her best friend, Jason, and their fathers tossed an old football around in the park. But when her dad dies of a heart attack, Whitney doesn't realize her passion for the sport and her friendship with Jason will never be the same.
Two years later, Whitney's ready to begin the long journey of re-discovering her love for football, encountering a sexist coach, an unethical but irresistible opponent, a mustard yellow T-shirt, and Jason along the way.
How many boys, romance, and hits on the field can Whitney handle before it becomes too much and she's forced to throw in the towel on her dreams?
CINDERELLA IN SKATES:
Natalie Melter hates that her family made her leave sunny Arizona to move to Wisconsin but she’s even more upset that her dad, a former hockey player, tells her that she can move back to Arizona in the summer only if she makes her school's hockey team.
Natalie doesn't know the first thing about standing up on a pair of ice skates, but life in snowy Wisconsin is about to get a whole lot more interesting when the cute college hockey player next door decides to teach her the sport he loves.
Will Natalie put it together in time to make the team or will Shane be a distraction she can’t ignore?
CINDERELLA STEALS HOME:
College baseball pitcher Doan Riley was always a good guy until things in his life started to change him. Now he’s reckless, angry and has a knack for getting himself into trouble, though he’s always been able to find his way out. Until now.
Holly Shaw’s back in town for the first time in years, and she isn’t happy about it. She's only in Arizona because she has nowhere else to go and her dad’s letting her stay with him until she figures out her next move.
All Holly wants to do is make enough money to move away…until she gets involved in her father’s summer baseball league for the college guys in town.
When she meets her older brother’s friend Doan for the first time, she thinks he’s rude, arrogant and totally unlikeable, but as she gets more and more involved with the team, she starts to realize that first impressions shouldn’t always be the lasting impression, but will Doan's reckless tendencies get in the way?
CINDERELLA IN THE SURF:
Rachel West loves the water. It feels like she's been surfing since before she could walk. But when a horrific accident ruins her love for the sport, she's not sure how to stay afloat.
Walker Gracin is a southern guy on vacation for the summer when he meets Rachel, a pretty, broken ex-surfer, and he's determined to show her she can have a life free from the sea.
But when Rachel's faced with an impossible choice -- get back on her surfboard or give up her dreams forever -- she risks losing everything she and Walker worked to build.
Can Rachel overcome everything that wants to keep her down or will she sink under the pressure?
