Tessa knows a soccer scholarship is her best chance at going to college. She’s the best player on her small-town high school team—but that doesn’t mean much in the big world of college soccer.

Luckily, her best friend’s sister plays for a nearby university. She offers to help Tessa make the team—but not for free. Tessa must join her snobby sorority, and ditch her high school boyfriend, who is simply not fraternity material. Tessa wonders if it’s all worth the cost of admission.
