Naomi Brooks has a plan. Graduate at the top of her class. Keep her scholarships. Become a trauma nurse. Never let anyone know that her favorite place on campus isn't the biomedical lab-it's the automotive shop, where she's rebuilding a decades-old project car one bolt at a time. She's too busy juggling classes, clinicals, and helping raise her two-year-old brother to get distracted by hockey players. Especially not Beau Callahan. Campus knows Beau as the charming captain of the hockey team with an NHL future. What they don't know is that he's just as committed to becoming a sports physical therapist as he is to hockey-or that his anatomy grade is about to cost him everything. When he's assigned a tutor after nearly failing his first exam, the last person he expects is the intimidating biomedical major who's been glaring at him since orientation. Naomi assumes Beau is another athlete looking for an easy way out. Beau assumes Naomi hates him. They're both spectacularly wrong. Between late-night study sessions, accidental gaming sessions with anonymous teammates, campus chaos, and secrets neither of them are ready to share, the line between tutor and friend begins to blur. But when the pressure of scholarships, expectations, and struggles they've spent years hiding finally catches up to them, they'll have to decide whether trusting someone else is the biggest risk-or the only way forward.
