Off The Record

Gwendolyn thought she had left the scandal behind. After exposing her professor for theft and murder, she was branded a troublemaker-and kicked out of her dream school. Now at her new college, her journalism assignments are a joke: pep rallies, cafeteria menu changes, and campus gossip. Hardly the hard-hitting work she lives for.

In a cruel twist of fate, she's forced into a long-term assignment shadowing the football team on their championship run. The last place she wants to be is on the sidelines, scribbling notes about touchdowns and pep talks-but the closer she gets to the players, the more she realizes not everything on the field is as polished as it seems.

Enter Maverick Beckett: the golden boy quarterback whose charm masks something darker. Everyone else sees a hero, but Gwendolyn notices the cracks-the secrets he keeps, the shadows he won't explain.

As the team fights for the championship title, Gwendolyn's past begins to close in. Suddenly, the story she's supposed to be writing isn't about football at all-it's about survival. And if she can't untangle the truth from the lies, she may lose more than just her second chance.

Because some stories don't just break-
they shatter.
