Publisher's summary

Can the quirkiest girl in school win over the coolest guy on the football team?

This is it - Tori’s senior year. Her last chance to leave Nelson High without a bucketload of regrets. Number one priority - get Colt to fall in love with her.

So what if he’s the Raider’s number one playmaker? So what if he’s so far out of her league the idea of them together would rupture the school’s social order? She has to try, before it’s too late.

She’s come up with the perfect excuse to spend more time with him. All Colt has to do is think he’s helping her win over one of his teammates, and in the process he’ll fall madly in love with her. Or will he?

Colt wants one thing: to play football after high school. But his grades are tanking and his dreams of playing college ball are fading…fast. He doesn’t really have time to waste helping out Tori, but they were friends in middle-school and he just can’t turn her down. Besides, how hard can it be to get one of his teammates to notice her?

He’ll help her out, and then he’ll focus on what’s really important: football…assuming he can stop thinking about the last girl who could ever steal his heart.

Really enjoyed the story!

I enjoyed this story a lot. The characters were great. I could really relate to Tori and what she had wanted out of her senior year. She wanted to make the most of it and to go after something that she had wanted for years. I really appreciated that. The characters were well written and relate-able. Tori is taking her cue from some older romantic movies on how to get the guy that you like/want when you are out of the same social circles. I really enjoyed both Tori and Colt along with the rest of the characters that we are introduced to (that they are close too). I would love to read their stories as well so will definitely be checking out the rest of this series. The story flowed very smoothly and while I would have loved to have gotten more of Colt and Tori together, I'm hoping that in the other books in this series we will get to see some of that. I was pulled in from beginning to end and was not ready for it to be over yet.
