Rush by Kandi Steiner is an angsty and addictive college romance set at Palm South University, a sunny campus in South Florida where the drama is as heated as the weather.

Cassie McBee, a pre-med freshman focused on her studies, finds herself drawn into the chaotic world of Greek life when she accompanies her best friend to sorority rush.

She quickly realises that the fraternity and sorority scene is filled with tempting risks and complicated relationships, especially when she falls for Adam Brooks, the charming soon-to-be president of Alpha Sigma.

But Adam is already involved with Cassie's sorority "Big," Skyler, setting up a tangled web of secrets and tension that threatens to upend Cassie's college experience.

Bestselling Author Kandi Steiner delivers an angsty, hilarious, and addicting college romance series that will leave you breathless and begging for more...

Drama. Lies. Sex. Welcome to Palm South University.

At a college in sunny South Florida, the weather is hot, and the guys are hotter.

Cassie McBee is a freshman, brand new to campus, and it doesn't take her long to figure out that the rules are only set to be broken at PSU.

A pre-med bio major, she's got more important things to worry about than joining a sorority or partying at fraternity houses. But her best friend is rushing, and when she tags along, she discovers there's more to Greek life than she thought.

And when she meets Adam Brooks, the sexy soon-to-be president of Alpha Sigma, she kisses her heart goodbye right there on the spot.

There's just one small problem.

Adam is dating Skyler, Cassie's new Big in Kappa Kappa Beta.

And if you think that sounds like trouble, just wait until you meet the rest of the crew.

"If Gossip Girl and Riverdale had a love child, it would be PSU." -- #1 NYT Bestselling Author Rachel Van Dyken
