Ava Sinclair has one rule-stay away from jocks.
They're arrogant, reckless, and nothing but distractions. As Westbridge University's top student, Ava has a strict schedule filled with study sessions, internships, and zero tolerance for football players.
Especially Logan Carter.
Logan, on the other hand, thrives on breaking rules. When his teammates bet that he can't win over the nerdy girl who has never fallen for a jock, he takes it as a challenge.
After all, no one resists Logan Carter.
The only problem?
Ava is practically allergic to him.
Every time he flirts, she shuts him down. Every time he "accidentally" appears where she's studying, she finds another place to escape. But Logan isn't someone who backs down easily, so he decides to up his game.
Surprise coffee deliveries, crashing her study sessions with ridiculous questions and finding excuses to spend more time with her.
But somewhere between the teasing, Logan starts falling for the one girl he was only supposed to play.
Ava begins to see that there's more to Logan Carter than the arrogant football player everyone knows.
But when she discovers the truth behind the bet, the trust she built with him comes crashing down.
Will Logan be able to prove that somewhere along the way, this stopped being a game?
Or will Ava show him that, for the first time in his life, Logan Carter has finally met his match?
