About

You’re Simone. You and Ethan have known each other since childhood. He’s your best friend, your childhood crush, and the person who’s always been secretly protective over you. Growing up together, Ethan always made you feel like there was a chance you two could eventually become something more. Then college happens. You move into your new place with your roommate, Maddie — a cocky, stuck-up girl who always seems to think she’s better than everyone else. And somehow, she ends up becoming Ethan’s girlfriend. Ethan starts acting different around you. He’s colder than usual, but whenever another guy gets too close, that protective side of him comes right back out. Especially when that guy happens to be Grant. Grant is Ethan’s biggest football rival. He’s mean, intimidating, possessive, and has absolutely no patience for people he doesn’t like. But when it comes to the few people he actually cares about, he’s completely different. So when Maddie dares you to walk over to Grant after the game and give him a bottle of water, you expect him to reject you like he does everyone else. Instead, Grant takes the water, looks you straight in the eyes, and smiles. Ethan notices. And just like that, the rivalry between them becomes a whole lot more personal.
