On track to make it to the NFL after graduation, Bronx is hyper focused on football, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have his fun as campus's most notorious player on and off the field. While Bronx has a well-known zero commitments policy, that doesn't stop campus's queen bee, Adrianna, from desperately trying to lock him down for herself. It isn't until Bronx is paired with straight-A, pre-med student Olivia McCausland as his anatomy lab partner that he realizes he may actually want something more. Instantly drawn to her, Bronx starts to let his guard down and his playboy persona slip. Throughout a rocky semester full of study sessions, bets based on test scores, and driving wedges determined to keep them apart, Bronx and Olivia become close, realizing they're more alike than they originally thought. And when faced with turmoil, Bronx comes to learn that scars come in all forms, shapes, and sizes. If you look hard enough.

Presenting The Prequel to Rain Again ~ It all began in rain. ~ He didn't bring an umbrella, so he decided to take hers. She gasped, stunned. "Wait! Hey! Give it back to me-" She moved to grab her umbrella back, but the man was faster. And as he turned around and began to walk away, she too, scurried after him. But tragically, her shoes slipped on the rainwater. ~ It was a mysterious beginning. ~ A kiss on a dark balcony. They didn't see one another's faces. ~ They flew across the sky of love. ~ She straightened a bit, suddenly feeling enraged and trying her best to control it from showing. "Anyone who's never been pushed down a cliff with an enormous kite tied to the back would, no doubt, feel 'nervous' by a forceful selection like this," her voice raised a little at the end. "I'm just hoping not to end up being dead, not that some people will be that sad if such a thing truly happens." He was furious. "I would never want any harm upon you, despite what you believe. The responsibility for your safety will be upon me. I will personally see to it." ~ And it all resulted in a love that will face the most terrifying test. ~ Yet, it is his lack of faith that will harm her the most.
