Coming Out on the Sidelines by Dev Hahn

Can you trust someone with your heart who isn’t true to themselves? Payson Moore wasn’t expecting her family to move back to the small town where her parents were raised. Now, Payson is starting her senior year in a brand new school. The upside? She’s miles away from the one person who broke her heart. Focusing on school and football to achieve her dreams, Payson makes a no dating rule for herself especially since she’s competing for the starting spot against the high school’s star quarterback. Sounds easy enough until she meets Sadie. Now Payson’s questioning if the beautiful cheer captain is worth breaking her own rule for. Sadie Adams is known as the town's princess since her father is the mayor. Everyone assumes she has the perfect life, but not everything is as it seems. If Sadie is to maintain her flawless image, she has to keep a part of herself hidden out of fear of rejection. Sadie does what she can to placate her mother but if she ever found out the feelings Payson stirs in Sadie, she would be disowned in an instant. How can Sadie make it to graduation without a place to call home? When Sadie and Payson meet, the world around them disappears and they can’t take their eyes off the other. As they spend time together, Sadie questions her true self and how much she’s willing to sacrifice to appease the people she loves. Payson finds herself falling for Sadie but attempts to repress her feelings before she jeopardizes not only her football dreams, but her heart too.
