Maya Bennett came to college with one goal—keep her scholarship and stay focused. No drama. No distractions. Definitely no football players. Unfortunately, she lives next door to one. Cole Ryder is the star quarterback, team captain, and the most infamous flirt on campus. With his reputation as the “Rogue,” Cole is used to getting whatever—and whoever—he wants. Girls fall at his feet, parties revolve around him, and no one ever tells him no. Until Maya. After Cole steals a slice of her pizza and calls her “sweetheart,” Maya decides he deserves a little payback. With the help of her best friend Bree, she crashes the football house party in a red dress designed to drive the cocky quarterback insane… and then walks away before he can get what he wants. For the first time in his life, Cole Ryder doesn’t get the girl. And he can’t stop thinking about her. The more Maya tries to avoid the arrogant football captain next door, the more Cole seems determined to prove he’s not just another campus bad boy. What starts as teasing and late-night arguments slowly turns into something neither of them expected. But Maya can’t afford distractions—not when one mistake could cost her everything. And Cole has a reputation he’s never had to question before. The girl next door was supposed to be just another challenge. Instead, she might be the one person who can bring the Rogue to his knees. And this time, winning might mean learning how to lose.

MayaThe Ethics study group turns out to be exactly what I expected.Confusing.There are six of us sitting around a table in the library, and somehow every single person has a completely different interpretation of the War and Peace rhetoric Professor Harris assigned.Two people think the paper should argue that war rhetoric manipulates the public.One person insists it’s about moral justification.Another thinks the entire assignment is philosophical nonsense.At this point, I’m convinced the only way to survive this paper is to confidently bullshit my way through it.Cole sits across from me flipping through his notes, looking just as confused as the rest of us.“None of this makes sense,” he mutters.“You’re telling me,” someone else groans.Just as I’m about to speak up, another chair scrapes against the floor.I glance up.Logan Hayes walks into the study room.Great.He scans the table, notices me, and smiles.“Maya.”“Hey.”Cole’s head snaps up.Logan pulls out the empty chair

ColeI take another bite of the biscuit sandwich.And immediately regret it.The biscuit is dry enough that I almost choke.“I swear,” I mutter, grabbing my coffee, “I have no idea how they manage to make biscuits this dry.”Maya laughs beside me.“My grandmother used to make the best homemade biscuits,” she says. “Fluffy, buttery, perfect every single time.”“Used to?”“She still does,” Maya says. “I just can’t recreate them the way she does.”“That’s tragic.”“It really is.”I shake my head.“I’m from Pittsburgh. Food is basically a personality trait there.”“Oh I know,” she says immediately. “The Strip District alone proves that.”That makes me glance over at her.“You’ve been to the Strip?”“Of course,” she says. “My hometown is in Ohio, but it’s not that far from Pittsburgh.”“What town?”“Girard.”I blink.“Seriously?”She nods.“You’ve heard of it?”“Yeah,” I say with a laugh. “It’s near Youngstown. Not that far from Pittsburgh.”“Exactly.”I lean back slightly in the seat.“Th

ColeI wake up around ten the next morning.Normally after an away game I’d sleep half the day away, but my body is too sore to stay in bed. Every muscle reminds me of the hits I took last night.Winning feels great.The bruises that come with it? Not so much.I drag myself into the shower, letting the hot water loosen the tightness in my shoulders. By the time I finish getting dressed, I remember something else I have to deal with today.Ethics.I hate that class.Usually I skip the study groups because they’re pointless, but this section on The Rhetorics of War and Peace has me completely confused. Professor Harris decided this topic is apparently the most important thing we’ll study all semester.And if I don’t pass?I can’t play.That alone is enough to drag me out of the house.I grab my keys and head outside toward my truck.Just as I step off the porch, I hear a door close.I glance toward the house next door.Maya is walking down her driveway with a backpack slung over one sho
