PLAYBOOK OF WANT: TEAMMATES UNTIL THE FEELINGS SCORE by Riley Voss

When a flooded apartment forces meticulous chemistry TA Quinn Callahan into an emergency roommate agreement with Tate Navarro—the reckless, tattooed star midfielder of the university’s women’s soccer team—neither expects more than split rent and shared silence.

They draw up rules. Strict ones. Color-coded. Signed.

Quiet hours. No emotional dumping. Separate beds.

Then one brutal away-game loss shatters the fragile peace.

Tate comes home wired, furious, and desperate to feel anything but defeat. Quinn—up late with flashcards and insomnia—offers a beer… and an observation that changes everything.

“You looked like someone who needed to lose control for once.”

What follows is a no-strings arrangement documented in meticulous detail: The Playbook—a shared doc listing kinks, limits, safe words, praise, degradation, and one ironclad rule: feelings stay off the field.

But rules are made to be broken.

Quickies in equipment rooms. Edging on kitchen counters at 2 a.m. Athletic tape binding wrists while the city sleeps. Slow, reverent mornings that bleed into desperate nights.

The lines blur. The doc grows footnotes of tenderness neither will admit. And when a charismatic new teammate starts circling Tate, jealousy rips the last pretense apart.

One rain-soaked confession on a balcony. One deleted document. One choice: walk away from the future they’ve built… or burn every rule and build something real.

From forced proximity to filthy nights to forever, Playbook of Want is a steamy, emotional sapphic sports romance about control, surrender, and the terrifying freedom of choosing love when the clock is running out.

Perfect for readers who crave roommates-to-lovers tension, praise-and-degradation dirty talk, soft dom/sub dynamics, and a happily-ever-after that feels hard-won.

One spreadsheet.

One season.

One love they never saw coming.

Content notes: explicit sexual content, light BDSM elements (bondage, impact play, edging, praise/degradation), sports injury themes, anxiety/pressure around graduation & careers. HEA guaranteed.
