Kathie's Adult Book Recommendation You can check out The Cock Down the Block on our Hoopla App—it's the first book in The Cocky Kingman’s series. I've really enjoyed the whole series myself! It’s a fun, laugh-out-loud journey following all the football jocks as they fall for their dream girls. Plus, the animal sidekicks add such a cute touch! It's a contemporary rom-com with a bit of spice—perfect for a light, entertaining read. |
