Once a girl with dreams so high,
Now broken wings and teary eyes.
Each love she gave, returned with lies,
Betrayed by love, her heart defies.
Cheated on, time and time again,
Each wound deeper, like a searing pain.
Trusting souls turned cold and vain,
Her shattered heart, a heavy chain.
Tears that flow like rivers wide,
Each drop a story, pain can't hide.
Broken promises, like ebbing tide,
In love's cruel game, she can't confide.
Yet in her tears, a strength unseen,
A heart so fragile, yet so keen.
For every tear that falls unseen,
A warrior's spirit, fierce and mean.
So let her cry, her tears will fade,
A crybaby, yes, but not afraid.
For in her tears, her soul's crusade,
To heal, to love, to rise unswayed.
Cameron Cole has a plan.
After yet another relationship ends because of certain shortcomings-literally-Cameron decides it's time to swear off dating and focus her energy into her junior year at the University of Charlotte. There's an internship up for grabs and there's no way she's letting that slip through her fingers. But then she's goes and makes one impulsive mistake that changes everything.
Wesley Reed has it all.
As the golden boy of the Charlotte Colts football team, he's got the talent, the looks, and a future so bright it's practically blinding. Girls throw themselves at him, professors let things slide, and the world bends to his will.
But when a required freshmen paper threatens his eligibility, the two are brought together in a sick twist of academic fate. Cameron can't get him out of her head and Wesley isn't making it any easier with his cocky smirk and insistent charm. Their arrangement teeters on the edge of disaster as unresolved tension and late-night study sessions give way to a steamy, no-strings-attached deal.
But in the game of love and lust, someone always has to loose-and the stakes have never been higher.
