To Antonella in Houston for letting me borrow your name. You were one of the sweetest readers I’ve ever met, and I was proud to use you as Nell’s namesake.
And for every reader who’s taken a shot on me and my books—thank you. Thank you so much. I am filled to overflowing with love every time I get a message or an email or a tweet or a review for these books, especially when you fall just as hard for these characters as I do. I never would have thought a series about Texas football could grow to mean so much to me. Like Dallas, it’s always been a love/hate relationship for me. But I have loved getting lost in the world of these books and getting to know these characters better. They are so very close to my heart. Thank you for helping me to give them a life outside my head.
Struck with football fever?
Don’t miss the rest of Cora Carmack’s thrilling
RUSK UNIVERSITY series!
ALL LINED UP
A Rusk University Novel
In Texas, two things are cherished above all else—
football and gossip. My life has always been ruled by both.
Dallas Cole loathes football. That’s what happens when you spend your whole childhood coming in second to a sport. College is her time to step out of the bleachers, and put the playing field (and the players) in her past.
But life doesn’t always go as planned. As if going to the same college as her football star ex wasn’t bad enough, her father, a Texas high school coaching phenom, has decided to make the jump to college ball . . . as the new head coach at Rusk University. Dallas finds herself in the shadows of her father and football all over again.
Carson McClain is determined to go from second-string quarterback to the starting lineup. He needs the scholarship and the future that football provides. But when a beautiful redhead literally falls into his life, his focus is more than tested. It’s obliterated.
Dallas doesn’t know Carson is on the team. Carson doesn’t know that Dallas is his new coach’s daughter.
And neither of them know how to walk away from the attraction they feel.

ALL BROKE DOWN
A Rusk University Novel
Dylan fights for lost causes. Probably because she used to be one.
Environmental issues, civil rights, education—you name it, she’s probably been involved in a protest. When her latest cause lands her in jail for a few hours, she meets Silas Moore. He’s in for a different kind of fighting. And though he’s arrogant and not at all her type, she can’t help being fascinated with him.
Yet another lost cause.
Football and trouble are the only things that have ever come naturally to Silas. And it’s trouble that lands him in a cell next to do-gooder Dylan. He’s met girls like her before—fixers, he calls them, desperate to heal the damage and make him into their ideal boyfriend. But he doesn’t think he’s broken, and he definitely doesn’t need a girlfriend trying to change him. Until, that is, his anger issues and rash decisions threaten the only thing he really cares about, his spot on the Rusk University football team.
Dylan might just be the perfect girl to help.
Because Silas Moore needs some fixing after all.
