Olivia Williams had always lived by one rule: stay out of trouble and graduate quietly. With a full course load, a part-time job at a local café, and a mother who sacrificed everything for her future, she didn't have time for distractions especially not the arrogant, impossibly handsome kind.But trouble, it turned out, had a name: Sebastian Crane.Wealthy. Untouchable. Charming enough to make the entire campus turn heads. When a reckless bet with his friends puts Olivia at the center of his game, she braces herself for endless irritation. What she doesn't expect is for him to keep showing up in her classes, at her café job, in the quiet corners of her carefully controlled life looking at her like she's the only person in the room.Sebastian thought winning would be easy. Make the one girl who isn't impressed by him fall, prove he can charm anyone, collect his victory. Simple.Except Olivia refuses to play by his rules.She challenges him. Calls him out. Sees straight through the polished mask he shows the world. And somehow, in the space between their arguments and stolen glances, something shifts. The bet that started as a game becomes terrifyingly real. Sebastian finds himself falling for the girl who was never supposed to matter.What begins as deception becomes the most honest thing either of them has ever felt.But when the truth about how they began comes crashing down, Olivia will have to decide: Can love built on a lie ever become something real? And Sebastian will learn the hardest lesson of all --that the biggest risk isn't losing a bet.It's losing the one person who made him want to be better.
