Publisher Description: Elise comes from a long line of college athletes. More than anything else, she wants to wear the University of North Carolina uniform and play for the college where her parents went. It's a lot of pressure, but if she works hard, she just might make it. At least that's what Elise thinks before she notices that some of her teammates are outplaying her. And a UNC scout is visiting in a few weeks. That's where the pills come in. Taking performance supplements makes Elise feel great, and soon she's playing like a powerhouse. But will it last? And can she keep her secret without getting caught? |
