Chloe Lin Anderson never wanted to play volleyball. She's more the sketchbook-and-snacks-on-the-bleachers type, thank you very much.
But when her best friend Riley begs her to join the school team just so they can spend more time together, Chloe says yes - even if it means bruised knees, public humiliation, and one extremely judgmental team captain.
Enter Joshua Carter. Tall, serious, team MVP, and dangerously attractive in that broody sports anime come to life kind of way. To him, Chloe is just another benchwarmer dragging down their chances at regionals.
Until the coach forces them to train together.
Until Chloe starts proving she might actually have potential.
Until the set that changes everything - on the court and off.
Now, the girl who never wanted to play is stuck between team drama, impossible expectations, and feelings for a boy who was never supposed to notice her.
She joined the team for her best friend.
She might just stay for herself.
And for him.
