Summary
Nick Nelson is a hotshot rookie rugby player with a reputation for being an asshole — one his professional achievements don't yet allow for. When an incident with a barista goes viral and threatens to derail contract negotiations, his manager Tara Jones makes Nick team up with a snobby public relations expert named Charlie Spring to rehabilitate his image. It’s immediately clear Nick and Charlie loathe one another. But is that heat hiding something more?

Summary
Continuing one year after Desperate ends- this is the story of Nick and Charlie navigating their relationship, the growing intensity of it, and the physical distance between them during Nick's first year at University of Leeds.
*
“Not without you. With you. Not physically with you, but you’re going to be part of it, Char. I swear. I want you to. I want to talk about this with you because I’m so excited to include you. I want you to visit and feel at home. I want you to have a drawer with clothes and a toothbrush and I can get you all your fancy hair stuff to keep at my place so you don’t even have to pack a bag. I can’t stop thinking about the fact that when you visit, we’ll have the room to ourselves the entire time. No one will interrupt, no parents will text, nothing. Just you and me and our own space. We can talk, we can have sex, we can maybe try new things…I can’t fucking wait.”

Summary
Nick Nelson regretted his choice to go to the closest university to home so he didn't have to leave his high school sweetheart.
The rugby team was homophobic, his mum didn’t need him around and his girlfriend broke up with him anyway.
After his first year of university barely felt like leaving home at all, Nick is starting over at Leeds, with a new course, new team, new friends, and a new, intriguing flatmate named Charlie Spring.

Summary
When Charlie tells his study group he's dating Leed's rugby star Nick Nelson, they don't quite believe him. It's embarrassing to go with them to the rugby game, with their voices in his ears telling him he's mad, but Nick is always there to prove those voices wrong, even when he doesn't even know they exist.
