The day a judge gave me the choice between going to prison or going to college was the day I vowed to stop stealing. Never again would I see something beautiful and beyond my means and take it, just because I wanted it. Just because I could. When I moved in with Jerry, it was with good intentions. I needed a place to live while I got my degree, and he needed a roommate. Then I saw Aster. Blond and beautiful, good, pure, sweet, smart...and Jerry's girlfriend. She was everything I never thought I could have. Except...maybe I can. So I put a plan into action. Yeah, I'd probably go to hell, but it would be worth it. I wanted Aster. I wanted her yesterday and tomorrow and every possible way. But you know what they say. Be careful what you wish for...because you just might get it.

Nora Kincaid has one goal for her second year of college: be invisible. Last year's all-party-no-study strategy resulted in three failed classes and two criminal charges, and if she messes up again she'll lose her scholarship. But there's one problem with her plan for invisibility, and his name is Crosbie Lucas: infamous party king, general hellraiser...and her new roommate's best friend. Crosbie's reckless reputation and well-known sexcapades aren't part of Nora's studious new strategy, but as she's quickly learning, her new plan is also really boring. When Crosbie's unexpected gestures of friendship pull her head out of her books long enough to see past his cocky veneer, she's surprised to find a flawed and funny guy beneath it all. The muscles don't hurt, either. But as Nora starts to fall for Crosbie, the weight of one of last year's bad decisions grows even heavier. Because three failing grades and two misdemeanors are nothing compared to the one big secret she's hiding...
