A nursing student and a competitive boxer are thrown into the ring together in this steamy college romance. With senior year well underway, Cali’s plan to get into Fenton University’s elusive Masters of Nursing program is set into motion. The competition is stiff, but she has a sure-fire way to get her where she wants to go. That is, until Cali’s success lies in the prized member of the boxing team—Lincoln Pierce. Now tasked with tutoring the brooding fighter to secure a letter of reference from her professor, Cali launches herself at the opportunity. But she soon realises that Lincoln is a hell of a lot more than she bargained for. Lincoln Pierce has no idea what he’s doing or where he’s going. One thing is for sure—he wants nothing to do with tutoring and even less to do with Cali, especially when her determination soon threatens to expose secrets he’s purposefully left in the dark. But with his grades slipping, there’s more than just Lincoln’s full-ride scholarship on the line. Lincoln must accept Cali’s help or lose everything he’s fought for. And as it turns out, she may end up getting more than a little extra credit.
