RIGHT THE FIRST TIME // KRISTEN VAIL

He’s the smoking-hot football star.
I’m the nerd just trying to graduate.
So why does he keep staring at me?

I’ve always been the girl guys ignore until they need my class notes. But being invisible suits me. I’m at college to keep my head down, get accepted to grad school and hopefully save my dysfunctional family.

Simple enough—until Cam Forrester looks my way.

I’m not about to get sidetracked by some sexy wide receiver. The last time I trusted a man like him I got burned so bad I still can’t shake the dark memories.

But when Cam rescues me from one of the most humiliating moments of my life, I realize this cold, cocky athlete isn’t so cold when he’s around me.

So when he vows to prove to me he’s more than meets the eye…well, what girl wouldn’t give in?

Trust a heartbreaker with my fragile heart?
That’s a dangerous play.
And I’m all in.
