Laurel Cates, a junior at Garland University, has no desire for the spotlight. She's determined to complete her degree with as little fuss as possible. As a writer for Garland’s school paper, the Daily, Laurel sticks to well-written fluff pieces. But when she uncovers a scandal involving the school’s beloved football coach, Laurel knows she has to expose the truth.

Even if her classmates don't believe her.

Even if her boss threatens to fire her from her desperately-needed job.

And even if the superhot quarterback with a heart-of-gold, Bodie St. James, is hell-bent on stopping her from publishing.

In the aftermath of the article, Laurel’s crush turns into her enemy as Bodie tries to protect the man who has been like a father to him. But as the interactions between the pair deepen, so too do their feelings for each other and an unlikely romance blossoms. Laurel soon realizes her uncompromising values will bring her closer to her desires, and closer to the truth—and closer to finding her voice.

Reviews

Praise for Whistleblower

"The book’s strengths lie in its focus on the importance of standing up for others and, when we have the power to do so, creating platforms for those who struggle to be heard."Kirkus Reviews

"Marchant pens a wonderful novel that features a strong heroine and themes of social justice. The book's humor will keep readers entertained even as topics such as sexual harassment are addressed, giving balance to this meaningful story."Booklist

"Explicit sexual references, binge drinking, and an off-campus drag show provide a realistic backdrop to college life as student reporter Lauren investigates criminal allegations against the head football coach. Enthusiastically recommended."School Library Journal
