The cameras love Jordan Reeves. But the golden girl of college basketball is cracking under the pressure of her own perfect image. Jordan has the stats, the winning streak, and the effortless swagger that keeps the press eating out of the palm of her hand. But beneath the spotlight, the weight of carrying her team and performing for the world is suffocating.

Enter Blair. Cold, clinical, and completely unimpressed by Jordan's fame, Blair is the graduate Teaching Assistant tasked with keeping the star point guard's grades afloat. Blair views the world through the hyper-focused lens of behavioral psychology—everything is about conditioning, reinforcement, and strict, unrelenting control.

What begins as a freezing, tense academic arrangement in a cramped office quickly escalates into a high-stakes psychological game. Blair might be the only person who sees past the athlete to the girl underneath. But submitting to Blair's precise, demanding rules means Jordan has to finally let go of her control. As the power dynamics blur and the line between tutor and student shatters, they both have to decide what they're willing to risk for the ultimate assist.

Contains explicit content, power dynamics, and a forbidden student/TA relationship. Intended for mature readers.
