From the blurb:

2nd Edition of Coach's Pass. Updated version with expanded text.

Jackson Hicks

D1 football isn't for amateurs. I’m the hotshot Senior QB at Lake University in Minneapolis, my last chance to claim the national title, a shot at finally making my father proud. My head is completely clear until Austin’s dad takes over as our head coach. His sexy silver fox of a father completely messes up my routine, those sturdy biceps bringing up ludicrous desires I thought were long buried, making it impossible to forget about my daddy issues. Every moment we spend together, I lose control of myself. Who I thought I was supposed to be. Who the hell would be rooting for a queer quarterback?

Brad Schmidt

I'm returning to Minneapolis to be closer to family. A divorce can really mess up your kid’s heads. They need their grandparents close by as they grow up. Plus, I get to coach my son in his last season, making sure to increase his draft stock as much as I can. Everything is going according to plan until I meet Jackson Hicks.

I expected the cheerleaders to give me a run for my money, not the quarterback.

Coach's Pass is a sweet and smutty short novel, a prequel to Coach's son.

Contains mature themes.


Molly Otto's review:

A fun debut novel from Eric with a coach finding his match in his starting quarterback. Jackson is the starting QB for his D1 team and when his new coach starts, who also happens to be his best friends dad, his world is turned upside down. Coach Schmidt is starting over coaching his son's final year of college ball and freshly divorced. When his and Jackson's worlds collide, the draw is immediate, the tension palpable. Overall a fun kick off to the start of this series, would have liked some of it to be drawn out more. At times throughout felt rushed and you didn't get to see the full impact of their relationship and how it affected everyone. Will be happy to read future works from this author to see how they develop. For a debut it was well done and worth the chance of reading.
