Tallon Doyle is a serial monogamist. He loves being in a relationship. That is, until the unthinkable occurs, causing the foundation of his trust to break. With a newfound freedom and any thoughts of future relationships on the back burner, he seeks easy hook ups. Being on the Beckford U soccer team makes playing the field simple on and off the pitch, and he has no difficulty finding willing girls to have fun with… but every encounter leaves him feeling empty.

When Tallon’s friends make a bet that he can’t stay single or refrain from meaningless hook ups for more than a couple of weeks, he’s determined to prove them wrong.

Abigail Whitcomb sees Beckford U as a chance to reinvent herself from shy introvert into someone more confident. But after her so-called friends show their true colours leaving her questioning what happened after a night at Euphoria, she realises she needs to reassess who she trusts.

After a brief encounter at a party, the universe seems determined to keep throwing Tallon and Abigail into each other’s orbit. Could a fake dating arrangement be the solution to Tallon gaining some control back over his romantic life while also giving Abigail the upper hand over her bullies?

As they grow closer, it’s clear that their connection is more than pretend … but will Abigail’s trauma be too much for their relationship to shift from fake to real? Or will the universe step in once more to show them they belong together?
