Who knew that being stuck in detention and extra mandatory swim practices with each other would bring two rivals together? Louie Monroe has learned that working hard for what she wants, not what others want from her, is the way to go. She's one of the best swimmers on the team and couldn't care any less about any of them and their hateful comments. And she definitely doesn't care about the team captain. Winter Montgomery, the swim team captain, also known as the ice queen, works hard to make sure she's perfect. Her grades, her swims, her whole life revolves around the expectations nobody gives her other than herself. The 'go-with-the-flow' girl and the perfectionist stuck together as punishment? Nothing could go wrong...
