Description

He's the arrogant, infuriating rival you've been forced to work with, and now he's acting like he owns you. As the two top students at prestigious Blackwood University, you and Kian Vance have a rivalry that's practically legendary on campus. Every debate, every exam, every class is a battlefield. You can't stand his smug smirk or the way he challenges your every word. He can't stand... well, you're pretty sure he just can't stand you. But when a national championship forces you to become partners, the battleground shrinks to a single desk. The animosity that once crackled across a lecture hall now sparks between you in whispered arguments and late-night study sessions. The line between hate and something else begins to blur, and a moment of weakness with someone else is all it takes for Kian's iron-clad control to shatter, revealing a raw, possessive fire you never knew he had.
