Aussie girl, Leila, moves to America. Repeating her senior year brings much more drama than she bargained for. Midway through the first semester, Leila joins the senior class at Westwood High. Leila: "A fresh start, Dad said. New beginnings, Mum said. Problem with flippant statements like that is they don't take into account that you can't un-live or wipe clean the parts of your life that are dark and murky. Memories will always follow you to the ends of the earth and back again. I love my parents so I'll give it 18 months. I'll give it a good ripper of a go, maybe make some new mates, go to a US house party or two and then I'm booking my flight back to Aus." Being on the footy team Elijah's use to girls swooning as he walks by. Leila's indifference to him and 'no dating' policy has him grasping for any attention she'll give him. Elijah: "Senior year was supposed to be the best year of high school. So far it feels like any other year I've spent at Westwood High with the exception of our new Coach. Well, until the new girl walks in with her "Yea, nah," and the challenge that she doesn't date. Challenge accepted. . . Except she seems to genuinely mean it. If I have to hear her call me 'Mate' one more time, I'm petitioning to have it removed from all dictionaries. Senior year just became a whole lot more frustrating." ***+++*** *This book is intended for 18+, mature audiences only.

She is a quiet girl on campus who spends her time studying and working. On the outside she seems next to perfect, but looks can be deceiving Sterling Blake is the university's hockey captain with a reputation of sleeping around. He's popular and never in a good mood, with not a grade over a C. However, his reputation may not be as accurate as people assume. When Sterling Blake is late to pick his little sister up from gymnastics practice he doesn't leave a great impression on the coach, Delaney Lawrence. Much to her dismay, she is selected to be his tutor so he can remain on the hockey team. She is determined to get his grades up and be done with this mess, he is determined to make that impossible. Unfortunate as the pairing seems, maybe things do happen for a reason. ⋆✧⋆✧⋆ Highest Rankings: #1 Love #1 Humour #1 Hockey #1 Team #2 Sports #2 Sports Romance #2 Slowburn
