Hadleigh Baker is a chart-obsessed, brilliant girl who loves reading and hanging out with her friends. Since her last relationship ended horribly, she has sworn off dating all together and refuses to give anyone the time of day. Her academic standard is what she throws all of her time into-until a hockey player needs her help and she agrees to tutor him. Even though their relationship starts out rocky, as the semester progresses, the two become more intertwined than she could've imagined.

Grant Carter is a go-with-the-flow hockey player who has tried his entire life to succeed-failure was never an option. When he starts failing a class and is threatened with being kicked off the hockey team, a tutor is his only option. He never expected to fall so hard for this girl-even after she hits him with rulers. He throws parties to see if she shows up, tries to get to know her, but she won't let him in.

Are their feelings enough or will this game they're playing fizzle out before it even has a chance to start?
