chapter 1 (First Day)

Three years after going through a traumatic experience that left her forever changed, Laura Mancini is hopeful for a fresh start in college. She's in for a lot of surprises when her path aligns with Ross-a mean, cold, bad-tempered guy that everyone on campus is afraid of and refers to as a monster because of his dark past.

Ross is everything she hates and fears and she tries her best to stay away from him, but life keeps throwing them together again and again, and the more she starts to get to know him the more she starts to see a side to him that no one else has, a side that she starts to fall for pretty soon. But will she be able to handle everything when all of his dark secrets finally come to light?
