Blair Adams's dreams are finally coming true–well, almost. Getting accepted into Happily Ever After University is like winning a golden ticket to guaranteed success. On top of the daunting work load, she's dodging her vain and obsessive ex-boyfriend, and working nearly full time to pay for tuition and the growing mountain of her father's bills.
Griffin Hawthorne appears to have it all. As a menacing defender for the HEAU Legends hockey team, he is no stranger to the pain and aggression of his position, striking fear in his opponents simply from the nickname he has rightfully earned—The Beast.
When a poor grade threatens Griffin's path to the professional league, he must find a way to fix it, and fast. She begrudgingly agrees when Griffin offers too high of a price to pass up. But after he inadvertently costs Blair her job, he puts a new deal on the table, one that results in her moving into Hawthorne Manor until the end of the year.
But with each study session and late-night kitchen run-in, the boundaries they initially set begin to blur, and they question whether it's their deal keeping them together or their growing affection for one another.
Contains mature themes.
