Payson, a sharp and determined college sophomore with dreams of becoming a therapist, has her life all mapped out: ace her classes, steer clear of distractions, and break free from her turbulent home life. Everything's going according to plan-until she's tasked with finding a "client" for a psychology class that could fast-track her degree. Enter Luke. He's a brash NFL rookie, making noise on and off the field. When Luke is roped in as Payson's unwilling client, the game changes. He's everything Payson can't stand: a fame-chasing playboy with an ego as oversized as his career goals. As their sessions progress, hidden layers start to peel away, revealing Luke's unexpected depths and Payson's concealed scars. Confronting their pasts and grappling with their present, Payson and Luke soon realize their futures may be more intertwined-and more unpredictable-than they ever imagined.
