At Penbrook University, Ava Williams has always been the epitome of success-an honors student, president of the student senate, and a paragon of ambition. With a reputation for excellence and an image carefully crafted to reflect her dedication, Ava has never been one to take risks.

While Ava's life is meticulously planned, Jaxon lives for the thrill of the moment, his good looks and shameless antics making him a campus legend. Their worlds couldn't be more different, yet the scandalous photo forces them into each other's orbit in the most explosive way possible. With Ava's reputation on the line and Jaxon's careless charm threatening to pull her deeper into his chaotic world, the two are forced to team up to manage the fallout. As they navigate the media frenzy, they uncover more than just the truth behind the scandal-they find an undeniable attraction that neither can ignore. In a battle between reputation and desire, Ava and Jaxon must decide if they can overcome their differences and build something real, or if their fleeting connection will be another casualty of the spotlight.

"Let me whisper your name my sweet Birdie and feel your soft feathers brush against my skin" ~~~~~~~~~ The candlelight was dancing around his skin now, too, as he stood there, still shirtless, exposing all of those muscles that she'd licked down and kissed up so much since the middle of May. Those were the same muscles she'd had countless wet dreams and day dreams about when she'd been locked up. Amusement had Carmen giggling as she thought to herself, And look at us now. Well, whaddya think?" Carmen asked, arms spread as she turned in a slow circle for him. Chance let out a low whistle that had her skin burning, and god, his voice was so gravely and even deeper than usual. A shiver slid down her spine as he said, "Bend over." As she planted her feet on the carpet, legs closed, she did as he requested. As her fingers brushed the carpet, she looked down at them, took in how they were shaking with excitement before she turned her head over her right shoulder so she could see his expression. She was glad she did. With the way that her boyfriend's face was twisted up, if she didn't know him, she'd have thought that he was grimacing in pain, not raw need. "I think I'm the luckiest fucking man on the face of the earth," He all but growled, eating up the distance between them in a few long and hurried strides. ~*~ You could say that Carmen and Chance are... pen pals. His momma calls her Birdie. After Wesley, a mutual friend between the pair, recommends that Carmen reach out to a skeptical Chance, a friendship blooms into much more.
