Lila Hart is nineteen, shy, and quietly brilliant. A first-year uni student with her head buried in books and her heart safely tucked away. She's not used to attention, and she likes it that way. Her world is quiet, predictable, and entirely her own-until she's asked to tutor the loudest, most late-to-everything boy on campus. Jack Carter is twenty, the university's star striker and captain, and the kind of guy who gets noticed the second he walks into a room-whether he means to or not. Charming, popular, and always just a little behind, Jack's life looks effortless. But under the surface, there's pressure he doesn't talk about, a father who expects perfection, and a grade point average that's about to cost him everything She's the quiet girl he barely noticed. He's the boy she never thought she'd talk to. But when tutoring sessions turn into something more, neither of them is prepared for the way their worlds begin to change- slowly, unexpectedly, and all at once.
