Hannah Wells is done being the quiet girl. After a disastrous hookup with the wrong guy, she decides to take control of her life. Her plan: seduce the hottest guy on campus.

Garrett Graham is Briar U’s star hockey player. He’s smart, cocky, and failing a class he needs to pass to stay on the team. He needs a tutor. Badly.

Hannah offers a deal: she’ll tutor him, if he pretends to date her for a month. It’s just fake. No feelings involved.

But Garrett isn’t just a pretty face with abs. And Hannah isn’t as “over guys” as she thinks. The deal gets messy when pretend kisses start feeling real.
