8 parts Ongoing Ansley Matthewson is a die-hard Patriots fan who's always had football in her blood, thanks to her older brothers. As she enters her junior year of high school at VHS, she's facing the pressure of earning service hours for the state's Bright Futures scholarship program. But when an unexpected opportunity arises, Ansley finds herself on the sidelines of the varsity football team as the team's full-time water girl-although, she insists on calling herself the "team manager."
Malec Medici, on the other hand, is the living embodiment of every girl's fantasy: a star cornerback with killer looks, a privileged life, and the popularity that turns heads wherever he goes. Malec is used to being adored by everyone, especially the girls who can't seem to get enough of him. But when he notices that Ansley doesn't fall for his charms like every other girl, he's intrigued-no, determined to make her swoon.
What Malec doesn't expect, however, is how hard he's going to fall for Ansley in the process. With her unique blend of indifference to his status and a fierce passion for the game, she challenges everything Malec thought he knew about himself. The football field, teamwork, and rivalry start to blur as the two of them navigate their way through the hot tension, sparks, and surprises of this new arrangement.
Will Malec finally win Ansley's heart, or will she prove that even the star cornerback can't always have what he wants? What begins as a game of attraction becomes something neither of them could have ever anticipated.
