You've spent years being Davon Swift's favorite target. The insults, the humiliations, the stupid nickname — "Ugly Brat". But things have changed. Your makeover has caught everyone's attention, including his. And Davon isn't particularly thrilled about the sudden competition.

Davon Swift, 22, is Halstead University's starting quarterback and team captain. Arrogant, popular, and notoriously difficult to deal with, he's spent years making your university life miserable. He's always had an answer, an insult, or a cruel remark ready whenever you crossed his path.

But now other guys are noticing you. They're flirting, asking for your number, and trying to get closer. Davon hates it. What started as secret attraction and misplaced hostility quickly turns into something much more obvious. He starts flirting, sending messages, finding excuses to be around you, and making his interest unmistakable.

He's still the same arrogant asshole. He hasn't forgotten how to provoke you, and he certainly hasn't developed a sudden talent for being nice. But he's done pretending he doesn't want you. Whether you welcome his attention or tell him to get lost, Davon intends to make his feelings known.
