The only difference is they know what the warden wants from them and I have no idea.Much to their leader's dismay, it's time to figure out the real reason I'm stuck in Mandora Supernatural Prison. Though, if I can't get my magic in check sooner rather than later, I just might get myself, or others I care about, killed.Let the games begin.*Please note, this is not a Reverse Harem book and recommended for ages 16+ due to some bully themes and language*

He was ready for the game. The initiation and the aftermath...that was a different story. Carter Lynch was an outsider, an army brat transfer. He had what it took to be a star. He was focused, talented...violent. Carter didn't join the football team to make friends or win championships. He didn't care about anything but taking a starting spot, earning a scholarship, and leaving. Until he met Sara and Ben. Ben was desperate to fit in, desperate for the same starting spot, and desperate for the same girl. The uneasy friends were on a collision course that would change everything. Adult language and sexual content.

A teen and his family move into a small rural town where high-school sports - especially football - is revered for its untarnished record. Carter, the new kid, is overly confident that he is going to be a first-string player in the upcoming season, dethroning the All-State members currently holding those positions. He befriends a neighbor, Ben, who also wants to play varsity football and joins Carter in his training regimen to become stronger. Football means everything to these two teenagers. Just prior to the first game, the underclassmen are invited to a party hosted by the seniors on one of the surrounding farms. Turns out, it's a front for the annual football initiation and twice as many girls than guys are in attendance. There are sexual undertones and the newbies are offered a choice of three challenges during the initiation. The mental stress is on overdrive. If they make the wrong choice, they'd be picked on for the rest of the season. One of twelve makes the wrong choice and is unable to cope with the ongoing hazing. Carter is an excellent football player and does replace the star player as a starter which creates animosity between the two. He's also a violent player who uses his skills to defend great players from other teams - making them appear mediocre. The team's record is unblemished and everyone is celebrating...until the emergency school board meeting. This is actually an emotional story that continues to pull at your heart strings. Carter has two girls pining for him, his step-father is abusive to both him and his mother, and he's protective of his younger sister. It is also a story about a young boy standing by his convictions and doing what he thinks is right to put an end to the hazing. Only, his action threatens the town's football future - something many in his town won't stand for. I thoroughly enjoyed 'Initiation' and recommend it for everyone. Some of the sex scenes are rather steamy, but aside from that, it's an engaging read with a great ending. Great job Mr. Williams!" John Podlaski, author, "Cherries - A Vietnam War Novel" and "When Can I Stop Running?" ★★★★★"This is yet another great story of the human condition that is engaging and insightful. Williams states he takes a lot from his own experiences in creating his works. This is evident in how well the story is written. It flows effortlessly." - AZ ★★★★★"I could not put this book down!

I thought this would be a hard book for me. I was very wrong. The book is amazing & should be a movie. A lot of twists I didn't expect. Very good book!" - krbky ★★★★★
