Knox Maguire is the most popular guy on campus, a star football player who has never had to chase anyone. Joanna is the quiet, bookish tutor who has no interest in athletes or the spotlight they bring. When she becomes his English tutor, she tells herself it is strictly professional.

And Joanna surprises herself by letting her guard down for the first time in a long time.
