Summary

Hating the arrogant quarterback was easy . . . until I needed his help.

My escape is all planned out: get promoted at my restaurant job, finish college, avoid distractions—i. e. men—and soon love, with all its broken promises, will be in the rearview mirror.

Until my manager informs me that if I want that promotion, I'll need to be trained—by none other than Reeve Dalton. Shafer U's cocky blue-eyed quarterback? The man I've despised since he humiliated my best friend? Please, no.

I'm not afraid to let Reeve know I find his arrogance infuriating instead of intoxicating—no matter how many times he catches me staring at his sexy signature smirk.

If only he didn't step in and rescue me from a humiliating showdown with my ex. If only he wasn't so good at firing up my short temper. Then maybe my desire wouldn't burn even hotter than my hate.

Now I'm in trouble. Because girls all over campus would throw away their lives for one night with Reeve . . . and I might just be one of them.

Contains mature themes.
