How very original...not

[jmc_bks]

E. Lynn Harris’s Just Too Good to Be True caught my eye in the Borders weekly email.

Brady Bledsoe is truly an all-American: a straight-laced star quarterback who’s honoring his promise to his mother to remain celibate in college. But there may be not defense for the lure of a crooked NFL agent or a sultry cheerleader promising ample opportunities to score.

Brady Bledsoe? As in Tom Brady and Drew Bledsoe, quarterbacks of the New England Patriots from 1993 through today? Bledsoe was an All-American while at WSU and Brady was All-Big Ten at Michigan, btw. What an original name for Harris to use.

And I vaguely remember reading (years ago) that Kyle Brady, tight end of the Jaguars and Patriots, was celibate for religious reasons after regretting some of his wilder college days at Penn State.

I’m curious now about the genesis of this book.

Maybe it's disguised slash fiction about Bradsoe? So the central conflict is the character being at war with himself, representing the forbidden luuuurve of these two footballers ;)
