The Friend Zone
by Delaney Diamond

Their friendship is strong. Their attraction is stronger.

For years, English professor Dana Lindstrom has been crushing on her friend, ex-NFL football player Omar Bradford. When another man sparks her interest, she embarks on a new relationship to help her get over those feelings for Omar.

To Omar, Dana is a prize he's held at arm's length for years, stifling his long-held feelings for her to preserve their close relationship. When Dana's new love interest stirs intense jealousy, he'll risk their friendship to show her once and for all he's the only man she'll ever need.

(Quicksand is a series of stand alone stories based on love, sex, and romance. Why Quicksand? Because love pulls you in. The more you fight, the deeper you fall. You can't fight your way out of quicksand, and you can't fight your way out of love.)

Delaney Diamond's Bio

Delaney Diamond is the USA Today Bestselling Author of sensual, passionate romance novels. Born in the U.S. Virgin Islands, Atlanta, GA is now her home. She reads romance novels, mysteries, thrillers, and a fair amount of nonfiction. Delaney wrote her first romance novel at the age of 14 and received rave reviews from her friends. She tapped out 89 pages on a typewriter and called it Captured Heart. Eighty-nine pages on a typewriter with no revisions. You couldn't do that today. Thank goodness for Microsoft Word. In 2010, she gave fiction writing a try again, which resulted in her debut novel, The Arrangement. Delaney is a diehard foodie, and when her head's not buried in a book, she's in the kitchen trying out new recipes, dining at one of her favorite restaurants, or traveling to an interesting locale.
