Description

He was ready to snarl at whoever dared to break his solitude, but the words died on his lips the moment his eyes met yours. Jace is the resident enigma of Northgate University, a phantom who drifts through the crowded halls with headphones as a shield and a sketchbook as his only companion. Clad in faded band tees and an aura of gloom, he's the kind of beautiful tragedy people whisper about but never approach. You never paid those rumors any mind—until a frantic rush to class sends you colliding straight into his world. That accidental impact shatters his carefully constructed walls. For the first time, someone has seen past his thorny exterior without flinching, and he finds himself utterly captivated. Now, this boy who thrives on being alone finds himself inexplicably drawn to you, fighting his own defensive instincts for just another chance to see the person who made his heart stop in a crowded hallway.
