Laurel Cates is a people-watcher. She's determined to get through college without stepping on any toes or causing a scene, and so far, it's going pretty well. But when Laurel uncovers a scandal involving the head coach of Garland University's beloved football team, she knows she has to do the right thing.
Even if her classmates don't believe her.
Even if her boss tries to fire her from the side job she desperately needs.
Even if the heart-of-gold quarterback, Bodie St. James, seems hell-bent on hating her for writing the article that got Coach Vaughn put under criminal investigation (a feat which proves difficult when Laurel and Bodie wind up in the same group for a class project in BIO 108: Human Sexuality).

Author's Note:
This book was inspired by her 4 years at the University of Southern California. Our boy Bodie (pronounced boat-y) closely resembles a football player that she had a crush on. She'll admit that freely in a court of law. Fair warning that this story will contain foul language, sexual tension, feminism, diversity, dad jokes, and alcohol (they're juniors in college, not saints).

OK SO THIS BOOK IS ANOTHER OF MY ALL TIME LOVES. WEIRDLY I HAVE NOT TALKED MUCH ABOUT IT EXCEPT SOME ADVERTISING ON MY BOARD BUT IT'S SO GOOD. THE LAST CHAPTER MADE ME SO PROUD. PLEASE CHECK IT OUT BEFORE IT BECOMES A PAID STORY BECAUSE IT'S GONNA GET PUBLISHED BY WATTPAD BOOKS YES YES YESS. I'M SO GONNA BUY IT A FEW YEARS LATER OR SOMETHING BECAUSE I GOTTA SAVE MONEY FIRST YA KNOW AND IN CASE MY PARENTS JUST DECIDE TO OPEN TO A PAGE WHERE THEY SAY THE F WORD OR STH AND THEN IDK I DON'T WANT TO KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN.
BTW KATE IS SUCHA GREAT AUTHOR. I KNOW I'M JUST PLAIN ON GUSHING NOW BUT I DON'T GIVE A DAMN UNLESS ANY OF YOU WHO KNOW ME IRL ARE READING THIS. IF SO, PLEASE EXIT BEFORE MY REPUTATION AS A MATURE, CALM, COLLECTED PERSON GETS TARNISHED. THANK YOU. I'LL TREAT YOU A BOTTLE OF ICE LEMON TEA.
