They were supposed to finish a project.
Instead, they're crossing every line.

⸻

Madison Devereux doesn't break rules. She studies, keeps her head down, and stays out of trouble.

Blake Thorne doesn't follow rules. He's the school's bad boy with a reputation built on smirks, fights, a revolving door of girlfriends - and being one of the football team's biggest stars.

When a month-long project forces them to work together, Madison's carefully built world collides with Blake's chaos. What starts as late-night research and snarky banter turns into something neither of them expected: tension that's impossible to ignore, secrets they didn't mean to share, and a line between hate and want that keeps getting blurred.

Because the real danger isn't failing the assignment - it's crossing the lines they swore they'd never touch.

Not everyone's trust issues come from failed relationships. Sometimes, it comes from the family and friends closest to us. Griffin Miller and Parker Graham are living, breathing testaments to this truth. Somewhere on Griffins life path, between living with his perfect twin sister, fighting tooth and nail for his dads approval, and competing against his NFL-bound cousin, Griffin lost sight of what matters most in life: Peace. Health. Time. Purpose. If Griffin thought the first 18 years of his life were tough, it's nothing like what the past 5 months have been. Football, family, classes, and trying to keep his cousin alive is wearing him thin. Too thin. Parker is still reeling from a sudden life change that happened to him nearly six months ago. There's a chance that he could've healed by now, however without the support of his closest cousin & with the way his uncle is forcing him back onto the football field, those wounds are reopened every day. Even as Parkers life slowly becomes normal again, he still struggles to become the person that he used to be. When one little mistake during senior year changes the trajectory of both of their lives, it's too late to change. Parker can't do anything but stand back and watch his cousins life burn to the ground, hoping that his won't be next. Griffin is forced to chose between three choices: forgive his past, wreck his own future, or break all of the rules that he's been obeying for years. - - - It's like my lungs refuse to suck down air. They don't want to live after what just happened. Someone forces life back into them by slamming an oxygen mask over my nose and mouth. A million different people get the stretcher underneath me. Torment digs its' claws into my skin and rips it away. Grief squeezes real tears out of my eyes for the first time in eight years. Karma leans down next to me and whispers in my ear: 'You can't outrun me anymore.'

She is about to uncover what's hidden under his rough and cold exterior-whether she's ready for it or not. After all, eyes are the window to the soul. *** "Thank you," he murmurs sleepily, raising his hand to bring it to my cheek. His thumb slides against my soft skin slowly, it burns hot at his touch.
