Description

He's the last person you ever wanted to see, yet your traitorous dog just delivered you right to him. An evening walk in the woods takes a sharp turn when your dog dashes towards the smell of a campfire barbecue, leading you straight to your sworn enemy, Jace Collins, and his crew. You and Jace have a history, a bitter rivalry that has defined your school years. While his friends laugh and jeer at your predicament, Jace is a statue carved from shadows and firelight, his intense, unreadable gaze fixed solely on you. The air crackles with a tension that has nothing to do with the campfire. What you don't know is that beneath that cold, hostile exterior, Jace is hiding a secret obsession with you. Every argument, every competition was just his desperate way of staying in your orbit. Now, with you standing just feet away, trapped by circumstance, the line between love and hate has never been more blurred.
