Hail Mary: Special Edition -- Kandi Steiner

<p><strong>Leo <em>F*cking</em> Hernandez.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>North Boston University's star running back, notorious bachelor, and number one on my <em>people I would murder if I could get away with it</em> list.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>And now?</strong></p><p><strong>He's my new roommate.</strong></p><p><br></p><p>I used to think I loved him.</p><p>But that was before I hated him.</p><p><br></p><p>He doesn't remember who I am, or how he made my life miserable for years. And before I unknowingly moved across the street from him, I couldn't have cared less. I was living my life despite him and what happened that summer, chasing my dream of becoming a tattoo artist.</p><p><br></p><p>"The Pit," as the university so gracefully nicknamed the house he lives in with three other football players, has served as nothing more than a pain in my ass and a constant reminder of the boy who broke my heart. Watching him parade his one-night-stands in and out of it never helped, either.</p><p><br></p><p>But with rent this cheap and so close to the tattoo shop, I've learned to ignore him - no matter how he's tried to get under my skin.</p><p><br></p><p>At least, until this summer. Because when a water and mold disaster leaves me with no choice but to vacate my house, I have nowhere to go. And Leo Hernandez offers me a deal I can't refuse.</p><p><br></p><p>Live at The Pit with him and the guys, free of charge, until my landlord fixes this mess.</p><p><br></p><p>Ignoring
