The Deal

When Hannah Wells agrees to tutor the most infuriating man on campus, she tells herself it's purely a business transaction — and she absolutely does not find Garrett Graham attractive.

She's lying to herself on both counts.

In this addictive college romance — the first in Elle Kennedy's wildly popular Off-Campus series — two people who can barely stand each other discover that the line between rivalry and desire is dangerously thin. Hannah is sharp, guarded, and carrying wounds she keeps carefully hidden. Garrett is cocky, relentless, and laser-focused on one thing: making it to the NHL. Neither of them has time for feelings. Neither of them plans on catching them.

The deal seems simple enough. Hannah tutors Garrett to keep his grades — and his spot on the hockey team — intact. In return, he plays the role of her fake boyfriend to make her crush finally notice her. Clean. Transactional. Temporary.

Except Garrett keeps showing up in ways Hannah never expected. He's funnier than she wants him to be, more perceptive than he has any right to be, and far more interested in her secrets than any fake boyfriend should be. And Hannah is starting to realize that hating someone and wanting them are not, in fact, mutually exclusive.

Witty, steamy, and surprisingly tender, The Deal is the enemies-to-lovers story that launched a phenomenon — and once you start, there is no putting it down.
