Level Up by Max Walker
Cover Designer: Natasha Snow
Franklin University Series Season 2, Book 4
Joey ‘Jay’ Cruz
Moving to San Luco wasn’t my choice. I was kicked out of my old school because of a protest I organized that went south. Now, I was attending Franklin University with only a semester left until graduation and not knowing a single soul.
Until I meet Ryan Redpine at a frat party. He’s handsome, muscular, has a great smile, and I quickly find out he’s the son of a CEO hell-bent on destroying the environment.
I push Ryan out of my mind, deciding to keep my sanity and morals in tact.
But fate had other plans. When Ryan ended up as my surprise dorm mate, avoiding him became impossible. And so was avoiding the feelings that started to develop… Maybe getting expelled wasn’t the worst thing that’s ever happened to me. Maybe it was actually the best?
Ryan Redpine
Jay entered my life like a lightning bolt.
I’d never met someone I was so attracted to, and someone who clearly didn’t want me. The moment he learned about my dad, he shut me out. Then I get reassigned to his dorm. Cue complications, especially when his bed breaks and we’re forced to share.
Things quickly heat up, but Jay’s adamant about keeping us under wraps. He’s planning this big protest at the beach for an oil drilling project and doesn’t want my family name tied to it.
So how do I tell Jay my dad is one of the backers? And how do I make sure I don’t lose him in the process?

A warmth bloomed in my chest. “And I’m the one that’s good with words?” I asked, moving a little closer to him. “You just fully gave me a philosophical statement. And it made sense, too. Your grandma must have been a really smart woman.”
“One of the smartest. But I will say I’m not all that far behind. I’ve read a book or two.” He shrugged and dusted off some invisible dirt from his shoulder.
I crossed my arms and smirked at him. “How many pictures did they have?”
“None!” He narrowed his eyes, his handsome face cracked into a big smile. “Alright, a few.”
I laughed as I leaned forward. I rested my head gently against his chest. He was warm, solid. Both his hands in mine.
This felt so peaceful. I closed my eyes and pictured us floating along in an impenetrable bubble. I had resisted this connection from the jump, and for what? So I could potentially miss the love of my life? I had wrongly assumed that Ryan was like his father, and that assumption almost fucked shit up for me in a massive way.
I picked my head back up and looked into Ryan’s eyes. They lit up under the streetlamp’s orange glow. A breeze from the ocean drifted toward us, and—for once in my life—it didn’t make my stomach flip.
