Verona Bridon only has one goal in life since her mom's death: protect her brother at all costs. Moving in with their aunt they lost contact with, they begin a new life. In a small town like Metford, Verona is confident she'll be able to watch over him properly. But just because a town is small, doesn't mean there isn't trouble lurking about. Enrolling into Skye-West turns out badly when Noah accidentally becomes involved in the school leaders business.
Striker Cunningham is not one to let go of things easily- even with Noah.
What happens when Verona offers sexual pleasure in exchange for his safety? Is this deal a blessing in disguise? Can they find it in themselves to love each other through this sinful exchange
