AGAINST THE RULES

Ava Sinclair has one rule-stay away from jocks. They're arrogant, they're reckless, and they're nothing but distractions. As Westbridge University's top student, she has a strict schedule of study sessions, internships, and zero tolerance for football players, especially Logan Carter.

Logan, on the other hand, thrives on breaking rules. When his teammates make a bet date the nerdy girl who's 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" shows up where she's studying, she finds another spot. But Logan isn't one to back down, so he ups his game:

✔ Surprise coffee deliveries? Check.
✔ Crashing her study group with ridiculous questions? Absolutely.
✔ Secretly stealing her notes to force her into tutoring him? Maybe not his best idea...

But somewhere between the chaos, the teasing, and the forced proximity (thanks to Ava's dorm mix-up that makes them neighbors), Logan starts falling for the very girl he was supposed to play.

When Ava discovers the bet, will Logan be able to prove that this game stopped being a game a long time ago? Or will she show him that, for the first time, Logan Carter has met his match?
