In the competitive halls of college, Charlie is just another face in the crowd-an introverted girl with a passion for academics and a heart too often overlooked. When Simon Whitlock , the charming yet notorious leader of campus life, unexpectedly asks for her help, a secret connection ignites between them. But as their worlds entwine, the betrayal of a cruel bet shatters Charlie's fragile trust, leaving her questioning everything she once believed about love. As she navigates her newfound confidence in the wake of heartbreak, a darker path beckons, pushing her towards temptation and self-discovery. Amidst the chaos, can Simon prove that their bond is worth more than a gamble, or will their tumultuous past keep them apart? In a game where hearts are on the line, Charlie must decide what-and who-she truly wants. _____________ !TW!
