Football AU by Essie Sloane
The last thing Rowan Rangecroft expected two weeks before the start of the ALF season was to be traded to the Tucson Scorpions, but he knows the life of a professional football player comes with risks like this.
Tucson is an adjustment. He’s gone from a playoff team to one that hasn’t so much as sniffed the playoffs in five years. He’s gone from a nice house to a cold, corporate condo. He’s gone from having friends and family around the corner to being a stranger to everyone he meets. Everything is different in Tucson: the coaching style, the team culture, the expectations.
The biggest adjustment is runningback, Milo Tobitt. Milo is energetic, loud, and always moving. He also seems determined to make Rowan his new best friend, and Rowan can’t escape him. They share a locker room. They live in the same condo building. Milo even offers to give him rides to and from the stadium. Rowan can’t decide if he’s annoying or friendly, but either way, his curiosity is piqued.
Rowan isn’t sure he can survive Milo Tobitt and the Tucson Scorpions.
Football AU is a MM fanfiction style novel, based on the Canon short story written by AM Rose for the multi author series Because Canon Sucks. In Canon, Milo and Rowan miss out on their happy ever after, so this series strives to give them their happy ending in every other universe.
