Kat Taylor plays by the rules. Christopher Jacobs only follows one - always ask yourself: why the hell not? When Kat meets CJ during a critical time in her college career, CJ changes the way she thinks about everything, especially love. 

                          ----------------

Kat is a worrier. With every decision, she sees a list of all the things that could go wrong. So she plays it safe, avoiding risk at all costs. But as she works her way through her junior year of college,  Kat can't help but feel dissatisfied with her life. What if making all the safe decisions her parents would approve of actually wasn't right for her at all? 

CJ can't seem to catch a break. He's in the middle of dealing with a lifetime's worth of bad decisions when he meets Kat. Suddenly, CJ finds himself not just wishing to be better, but trying to be. No matter how hard he tries, he can't help but wonder: What if some mistakes are truly unforgivable? 

When their worlds collide and Kat's heart is on the line, she must face her most life altering decision. Is it better to be safe... or to be wild?

We're not in love. Our past is a dumpster fire. The best we are is friends with benefits... without the friends' part. Jake Harrison, USC's star quarterback, goes through girls faster than jock straps. If that's not disgusting enough, he's my best friend's brother and my prime motivation for celibacy. Transferring to UCLA means finally getting out of my dad's house. All I want is to stay under the social radar, make Dad proud by earning my paralegal certification, and get out of Los Angeles. When Jake learns I'm nearby, the cocky jerk will stop at nothing to rekindle what didn't work before. He thinks he's grown and matured past the boy who crushed my teenage heart. I think he's taken too many tackles into the turf, but when he proposes a stress management agreement during his season... I can't help but see his point. His seven-and-a-half-inch point. The last time we indulged, we got sloppy. Not the good kind-soul-crushing feelings-sloppy. My brain knows cutting ties was for the best, but the rest of my body still hates me. But I won't be made a fool again. This time, I have rules: No attachment. No cuddles. And no falling in love. Yet, when treacherous feelings resurface, I do the worst thing possible-Break my own rules. This time, whoever falls first isn't getting back up. Story is complete.

Nathan Howland. Not your average everyday student. Unless having the title of 'The Demon' is average. An aggressive nerd is not one you'd meet any day. No one dares to dethrone this dominat teen who ironically wants to graduate peacefully. Your typical popular attractive guy who hates girls with a ✨passion✨. What happens when a daunting girl approaches him without quivering in trepidation? Jadrianne Clarke. Say she's unique or say she's abnormal. No one knows why she's the way she is. Unreadable & unpredictable. Popular yet keeps to herself. Guys want her; girls idolize her. She leaves people wondering: who is she? In some cases, what is she? A beautiful mystery prince as one would describe. Showing no interest until she moves into a new neighbourhood and enters a new school and encounters a certain grumpy male?
