Her path to escaping her shameful past certainly doesn’t include a gorgeous hockey player who believes in love at first sight. One night of sizzling heat and surprising tenderness is all she’s willing to give John Tucker, but sometimes, one night is all it takes for your entire life to change.  \nBut the game just got a whole lot more complicated  \nTucker believes being a team player is as important as being the star. On the ice, he’s fine staying out of the spotlight, but when it comes to becoming a daddy at the age of twenty-two, he refuses tobe a bench warmer. It doesn’t hurt that the soon-to-be mother of his child is beautiful, whip-smart, and keeps him on his toes. The problem is, Sabrina’s heart is locked up tight, and the fiery brunette is too stubborn to accept his help. If he wants a life with the woman of his dreams, he’ll have to convince her that some goals can only be made with an assist.  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nThe Goal An Off-Campus Novel  \nElle Kennedy  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \nTable of Contents  \nAbout the Book  \nTitle Page  \nChapter 1  \nChapter 2  \nChapter 3  \nChapter 4  \nChapter 5  \nChapter 6  \nChapter 7  \nChapter 8  \nChapter 9  \nChapter 10  \nChapter 11  \nChapter 12  \nChapter 13  \nChapter 14  \nChapter 15  \nChapter 16  \nChapter 17  \nChapter 18  \nChapter 19  \nChapter 20  \nChapter 21  \nChapter 22  \nChapter 23  \nChapter 24  \nChapter 25  \nChapter 26  \nChapter 27  \nChapter 28  \nChapter 29  \nChapter 30  \nChapter 31  \nChapter 32  \nChapter 33  \nChapter 34  \nChapter 35  \nChapter 36  \nChapter 37  \nChapter 38  \nChapter 39  \nEpilogue  \nOther Titles by Elle Kennedy Author’s Note  \nAbout the Author Copyright  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)  \n1  \nSabrina  \n“C කඉ඘. Cකඉ඘. Cකඉ඘. Craaaaap. Where are my keys?”  \nThe clock in the narrow hallway tells me I have fifty-two minutes to make a sixty-eight-minute drive if I want to get to the party on time.  \nI check my purse again, but the keys aren’t there. I run through the various locations. Dresser? No. Bathroom? Was just there. Kitchen? Maybe—  \nI’m about to pivot when I hear a jingle of metal behind me.“You looking for these?”  \nContempt lodges in my throat as I turn around and step into a living room so small that the five pieces of dated furniture—two tables, one loveseat, one sofa, and one chair—are squashed together like sardines in a can. The lump of flesh on the couch waves my keys in the air. At my sigh of irritation, he grins and shoves them under his sweatpants-covered ass.  \n“Come and get ’em.”  \nI d rag a frustrated hand down my flat-ironed hair before stalking over to my stepfather.“Give me my keys,” I demand.  \nRay leers in return.“Da-amn, you look hot tonight. You’ve turned into a real babe, Rina. You and me should get it on.”  \nI ignore the meaty hand that’s falling to his crotch. I’ve never known a man so desperate to touch his own junk. He makes Homer Simpson look like a gentleman.  \n“You and I don’t exist to each other. So don’t look at me, and don’t call me Rina.” Ray’s the only person who ever calls me that, and I fucking hate it.“Now give me my keys.”  \n“I told you—come and get ’em.”  \nWith gritted teeth, I shove my hand under his lard-ass and root around for my keys. Ray grunts and squirms like the disgusting piece of shit he is until my hand connects with metal.  \nI drag the keys free and spin back to the doorway.  \n“What’s the big deal?” he mocks after me. “It’s not like we’re related, so there’s no incest problem.”  \nI stop and use thirty seconds of my precious time to stare at him in disbelief.“You’re my stepfather. You married my mother. And—” I swallow a rush of bile, “—and you’re sleeping with Nana now. So, no, it’s not about whether you and I are related. It’s because you’re the grossest person on the planet and you belong in prison.","cbCaik3yJC9qArNJ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaik3yJC9qArNJ","pdf",1718245,345,"English","# About the Book\n## Title Page\n## Chapter 1\n## Chapter 2\n## Chapter 3\n## Chapter 4\n## Chapter 5\n## Chapter 6\n## Chapter 7\n## Chapter 8\n## Chapter 9\n## Chapter 10\n## Chapter 11\n## Chapter 12\n## Chapter 13\n## Chapter 14\n## Chapter 15\n## Chapter 16\n## Chapter 17\n## Chapter 18\n## Chapter 19\n## Chapter 20\n## Chapter 21\n## Chapter 22\n## Chapter 23\n## Chapter 24\n## Chapter 25\n## Chapter 26\n## Chapter 27\n## Chapter 28\n## Chapter 29\n## Chapter 30\n## Chapter 31\n## Chapter 32\n## Chapter 33\n## Chapter 34\n## Chapter 35\n## Chapter 36\n## Chapter 37\n## Chapter 38\n## Chapter 39\n## Epilogue\n## Other Titles by Elle Kennedy\n## Author’s Note\n## About the Author\n## Copyright","[{\"question\":\"Who is Sabrina James in The Goal?\",\"answer\":\"Sabrina James is a college senior with her future carefully planned, including law school and a high-paying job.
