Star quarterback Jack Miller has everything: the fame, the fortune, and a rocket arm that guarantees victory.

But when his eligibility hangs by a thread because of a philosophy class, he's forced into the orbit of his unyielding, brilliant tutor, Dr. Sophie Dubois. Sophie sees Jack not as an icon, but as a dense problem to be solved.

Their combustible dynamic is suddenly blown apart when a single, ill-timed wink is caught on camera, igniting a media firestorm that brands them an item. To protect both their careers, they enter a fake relationship - a strategic alliance to repair Jack's image and fund Sophie's impossible research dreams.

The lines quickly blur as their feigned affection turns intensely real. But when a vindictive ex weaponizes the lie, exposing their "contractual obligations," the scandal threatens to destroy Sophie's reputation and shatter Jack's career. Jack must prove his love is real before he loses the one woman who taught the cannon how to aim straight.
