"You're a cowboy like me, perched in the dark. Telling all the rich folks anything they wanna hear."
Never far from a pantsuit or her favorite blouse and standing at just five-feet-tall, Irina Woods exceeds all expectations built for her. She dominates in the classroom, while eliminating competition during an Olympic-gymnast level floor routine, earning tens by simply existing. With all of that, you would think she has everything figured out... and she almost does.
When a random Tuesday turns into the worst day of her life, a C on an assignment she thought she aced and dismounts that don't exactly end on her two feet, she thinks it can't get worse, she's constantly being undermined because of her looks.
While faced with doubt, her own family criticizes her after she ruined the family legacy by transferring from Indiana University in Bloomington, to the University of Michigan five hours away in Ann Arbor while chasing better academic status.
Now only one question remains on her mind, can she do what seems like the impossible when everyone is telling her she can't?
Ever since he was a kid, Max Hayes has always wanted to be the quarterback for the Michigan Wolverines, and now that he's got it after two years, nothing is going to mess up his perfect game... except for the fact that he can never break the stereotype that follows him everywhere.
He's six-foot-five, has dark brown curly hair, and is incredibly attractive, but Max doesn't want to only be seen as that. Yes, he wants the Heisman trophy, but he wants to be more than that.
When an unexpected breakdown in the library ties him to Irina, he has no choice but to add her to his routine. The arrangement is simple: check in to see how she's doing, hang with her for a bit, and wait until next time. But when the check-ins become more frequent, and they become closer... he catches feelings.
Torn between his game, studies, and Irina, can he excel in all of them, or will one be forced to take a hit?
