He's the campus heartthrob. I'm the girl who's not supposed to fall for him... Check out the latest sports romance by New York Times bestselling author Monica Murphy, now with exclusive bonus material.

Ace Townsend is everything I should avoid--cocky, charming, and the ridiculously hot new quarterback stealing hearts and spotlight alike. He's also my biggest complication.

As part of the football team's social media crew, I'm around him constantly--on the sidelines at practice, behind the camera at games, and celebrating post-wins at the bar. The more I see him, the harder it is to pretend I don't feel the pull.

Because underneath the swagger and smirk, Ace is different. Real. Funny. Unexpectedly sweet. And very much into me.

But there's one massive problem: I signed a contract that says dating players is strictly off-limits. One wrong move, and I lose the job I've worked so hard for.

Still, Ace is impossible to resist. We try to keep things secret--stolen kisses, late-night messages, sneaking around campus--but the lies are piling up, and my heart's getting tangled fast.

Now it's a race between falling in love... and getting caught.
