COMPLETED BRYNN DANVERS' main goal was to leave Miami. She never thought she'd find herself going to college in Oak Hill - her last choice. Brynn starts her senior year with only one promise to herself. She's going to have the absolute time of her life and be the happiest version of herself. But of course, there will always be that one thing that pulls her back. That one thing she doesn't think she's fully ready to let go of yet. CGC SCOTT is going into his senior year just like he went into his freshman, sophomore, and junior year. He's going to have the best time of his life alongside his best friends, sleep with a couple of pretty brunettes along the way, and play an amazing football season. Being captain this year will come with a lot more responsibility than he's ever had, but he's ready to accept the captain title and wear it proudly. His main goal? Win. A. National. Championship. Although Brynn isn't Cgc's typical type, he's attracted to her from the minute he sees her. He's looking for a simple hookup, not a relationship. Brynn is looking for none of the above. Even when she can't seem to take the hint that he's into her, Cgc sticks around for the chase. Will Brynn ever give in and sleep with Oak Hill's QB 1? Or will Cgc give up on his initial plan - wanting to only hook up with her - first and end up doing something he's never done before: fall in love. Last book in the Oak Hill U Series. Can be read as a stand-alone.
