Summary

Football players are treated like royalty in our small town, which makes Beckham Carver their king.

As the new quarterback of the Braysen Bulldogs, he's also my boyfriend's biggest rival. Add that to the list of reasons I should stay far away from him.

But when my truck breaks down, Beckham makes me an offer I can't refuse: He'll repair my pickup in exchange for me tutoring him. I have only one stipulation—no one, including my boyfriend, can find out.

The more I try to convince myself and Beckham that I hate him, the more he pushes my buttons to prove me wrong. Worse, the lines we've drawn between us blur as we spend more time together. And when my relationship comes crashing down around me, I almost forget why I couldn't stand him all along.

If I've learned one thing about Beckham Carver, it's that he always gets what he wants...

...and now, he's set his sights on me.

USA Today bestselling author Brooke O'Brien brings all the hate-to-love feels in this rivals-to-lovers, small-town college football romance.

I couldn’t take this seriously at all - which is all well and good. I didn’t want anything serious anyway, but this got me cringing so badly. I really wanted a palate cleanser but this was mostly just spice with no plot. The dialogue didn’t seem natural and I couldn’t understand their chemistry at all since the build just gets glazed over. Glad it was a freebie and I didn’t lose a credit on this audiobook.

The narrators are the saving grace.
