When someone you love is close to their dream, wouldn't you do everything in your power to make sure they achieve it? South Carolina has never been so hot. Olive Jones has just started her last semester at Clemson University. Her first-generation accepted into college status earned her the scholarship, but it is her parents' pride in her that keeps her focused on her goal of becoming a teacher. For three and a half years, she has been able to put all her time and effort into school work and work study. She doesn't have time for dating, let alone getting caught up with the baseball playboy that has become her shadow- not with her parents counting on her.Beckett Rodgers has only wanted one thing out of life, to succeed at baseball- well and hook up; both have come easy to Beckett since he was young. With his blonde hair and blue eyes getting him any girl he wants, not to mention his skills on the field. Months away from the biggest season of his life, the season that determines the probability of joining the MLB Draft, he comes face to face with the only woman that doesn't want him. Olive is a hard nut to crack, but he's nothing if not persistent- as long as it doesn't interfere with baseball.
