Emily Caldwell is ready for a fresh start. After leaving behind a home that only brought her pain and a twisted view of love, she's finally found her place in a new town with new friends and a newfound passion for volleyball. She's gunning for the captain spot on her team and feels like she's finally putting the pieces of her life together. Well, almost. There's just one thing missing: experience. And not the kind you get on the volleyball court. Emily wants to learn everything she missed out on-the good, the bad, and especially the sexy. Ignoring her friends' teasing about her search for a "Sex Coach," she sets her sights on Beck St. Claire, UMaine's golden boy and the dual captain of the volleyball and cross-country teams. Beck is everything Emily thinks she wants: confident, cocky, and infuriatingly charming. He's more than happy to take Emily under his wing, showing her the ropes both on and off the court. But as their chemistry sizzles and their lessons become more intense, Emily realizes Beck's charm masks a pain of his own. Behind his golden exterior, there's a darkness he's not ready to confront. With her heart on the line, Emily must decide: can she handle Beck's baggage, or will their pasts pull them apart before they even get started?

This has been my way of life for years, and nothing has challenged it. Until him. Charming, ambitious, he draws me in and then refuses to leave. He's persistent, annoyingly so, keeps coming back like a damn boomerang. And he's getting a little too close, asking a little too many questions. Questions I refuse to answer. Some things are just supposed to stay forgotten. JAYDEN SENNELS: Swimming is my life. I basically breathe water. Growing up the way I did, going to the Olympics seemed like an unattainable dream.

Enter her. Tall, confident, she seduces me, refuses to tell me her name, and has me waking up to an empty bed. She is an enigma, and there is most definitely something she's not telling me. From the moment I saw her, I knew. This woman is trouble in high heels. She will destroy me. And I am going to love it. 🏊‍♂️ WARNING: Strong language and sexual content.

"This book is the perfect mixture of deep and hilarious. I'm in love with that" - crackhead4ever Teen fiction has given cheerleaders a bad rap. And stereotypical appearances. Courtney knows this. She is a cheerleader. Is she a pretty blonde with blue eyes? Well, yes. Is she popular and perky? ...okay. Yes, again. Is she stuck up and cruel to others for no reason? Ha! There! No to that one. In fact, she's worked for years to portray the perfect image of an upbeat, easy going person. An image that gets harder to hold on to when: The new girl takes an instant dislike to her. Her best friend decides to run against her for Senior Class President. Her football team captain boyfriend breaks up with her. And, oh yeah, she humiliates herself in front of the whole school. Yup, that perfect image is falling apart. "I love how this book is different from other teen fiction books It's like a breath of fresh air from the same old tropes😄 💕" - LaraAmethyst "I loooove this book so much already aghhh" - therealbhavie "I'm hooked- I- I think that's all im gonna say before I run to read the next chapter" - grumpymood "So excited for the next chapter! Characters are complex and unique, the plot continuously thickens, and I'm already waiting to see what happens next. I can't wait!" - Rspicy #1 in TeenLife #2 in TeenLove #5 in TeenFiction
