First Position by Prescott Lane is an emotional ride from beginning to end.  You'll find yourself yelling at the characters for creating problems for themselves that don't have to be.  You'll find yourself crying for the pain they are going through.  And you'll find yourself rooting for them to make it, no matter what.Emory and Mason were college sweethearts.  Actually, they were the perfect pair.  Both were pretty conservative by college standards, they were dedicated athletes (albeit in very different fields) and they were committed to having a marriage and family one day.  Then the unthinkable happened; Mason broke Emory's heart.  Coming to him with great news that she's been accepted into a prestigious ballet group after graduation, Mason allows his insecurities to bubble over and tells Emory if she can't give up her dream to follow him as he pursues his NFL dream then it's over and he walks out.Now years later, fate has thrown the couple together once, again.  Mason is working to overcome a football injury and hoping to be hired on as the new quarterback for the Carolina Panthers.  Yes, he wants his football career back, but more importantly, it's the very town that Emory lives in and Mason will stop at nothing to get her back.  The passion and feelings are still there, but can the couple overcome the past hurts and the secrets they insist on keeping from each other.I found Mason and Emory likable and I was pulling for them, while simultaneously wanting to shake them.  But, the supporting characters are awesome!  Emory's gay roommate and his boyfriend were absolutely fabulous!  I loved them and their quirky personalities!  Mason's sister in law and her lack of filter made me laugh out loud.Thank you so much to Prescott Lane for the loan of this book in exchange for my honest review.You can find this review and others at [...] and [...]
