Book Three of the Northlake Rivals series
Maddox Vale is Northlake's favorite disaster.
A cocky wide receiver in jersey #11, Maddox is known for impossible catches, bad decisions, and a smile that gets him out of almost anything. He treats life like one long joke because jokes are easier than grief, and no one asks questions when he's making them laugh.
Then Star Carter walks into his life.
A dance major and cheerleader with a sharp mouth, pretty smile, and no patience for football boys who think charm counts as a personality, Star sees through Maddox faster than he's ready for. She's not impressed by his flirting, not fooled by his jokes, and definitely not interested in becoming another girl in his highlight reel.
But when Northlake's summer Victory Tour forces them together for rehearsals, promo events, and late-night campus chaos, the sparks between them become impossible to ignore.
Star performs to tell the truth.
Maddox performs to hide it.
And the closer they get, the more Maddox realizes some girls don't just catch your attention.
Some girls set your whole world on fire.
