Covey U was supposed to be a fresh start. With a new identity, I should have been able to forget the past and move on with my life. Fat chance of that happening when my past was staring at me in the face in the form of the best college wide receiver in the country. Adam Hartley. My biggest regret. My worst mistake. The guy I should have been with in high school was here, but he couldn't know it was me. Otherwise, he'd find out my most shameful secret. So I had to stay hidden in the background. Only problem was that he was dating my roommate, and I had to watch.

A gunslinger with four affinities is a myth. It's the kind of story whispered in frontier saloons one drink before closing and around campfires in the dead of night.

We declared war on each other back as freshmen and haven't looked back.
