Hadley Martin's first year at Louisiana State University was supposed to give her a fresh start. That there would be a place where she could reinvent herself, leaving behind other people's prejudices and alienation. For eighteen years Hadley was a nobody and now she's ready to change that. But just when she thought that she had already taken life by the horns, a familiar voice said her name. Wrigley Brooks is the guy she always wanted but could never have. The last free of the Brooks brothers. A forced friendship, budding feelings and a guy who never takes no for an answer - and now her world is turned upside down. Life definitely intended to show Hadley that there was a lesson to be learned from everything. Whether she likes it or not. *Shutout (from the English Shutout in baseball) is a shutout game; finishing the game without missing a single point.
