It's simple, Ezra West doesn't believe in love, or at least for himself.
Ezra has a past that seems to haunt him no matter where he goes, one that most would pity if they knew about it. But he's fine with his closed-off approach at friendships and the lack of romance in his life. His only focus is on football and keeping up his grades so he doesn't lose his scholarship.
Avery Morgan is looking for a fresh start, and freshman year of college is where she hopes to find it. But instead Avery just happens to grab the attention of the school's most chased football player.
Ezra finds himself drawn to Avery's no nonsense attitude and the way she can make him laugh like no other. Avery becomes intrigued by the things about Ezra only she gets to see.
But are either of them capable of letting the other in?
