Malaina Chastain has her life perfectly planned. Pre-vet track, 4.0 GPA, complete STEM requirements. And absolutely, positively, no distractions-especially not football players.
But when she's assigned to tutor running back Choi Seo Joon in organic chemistry, her carefully controlled world starts to unravel. He's patient where others are pushy. Thoughtful where others are thoughtless. And he looks at her like she's more than just the perfect student everyone expects her to be.
There's just one problem: she's supposed to be getting back together with her ex, Cooper - the safe choice, the expected choice, the one her family and friends have already planned her future around.
Between debutante ball practices with the wrong guy, stolen moments with the right one, and a viral video that exposes feelings she's been trying to deny, Malaina has to decide: keep being perfect, or start being happy.
Because sometimes the biggest risk isn't falling for the wrong person.
It's falling for the right one.
✨ A clean slow-burn college romance about finding yourself, defying expectations, and discovering that home isn't a place-it's a person. ✨

With glares turning into secret glances and an irresistible attraction binding them, something more is bound to arise. ◕ ◕ ◕ He smirked, the kind that curled with trouble, and slowly leaned in, his eyes locked on mine, unblinking. My breath hitched as I braced myself against the desk behind me, my fingers curling around the edge. His gaze flicked to my lips, a fleeting loaded glance, before he abruptly turned away stepping back just far enough to make me ache for air. "If you keep this up," he murmured, voice low and edged with heat, "I might just kiss that smart mouth of yours." I pushed off the desk, circling around him, my tone firm but my knees anything but steady. "I'm being serious here." "So am I." There was something darker in his eyes now, something unreadable and electric. My skin tingled with warning. Before I could figure out what had shifted, he moved. ~weekly updates~
