Description

He humiliated you in front of the entire campus, but the flicker of regret in his eyes tells a different story. Kaden is the guy every girl dreams of—the charming, popular star of the university who seems to have it all. And for years, you've been hopelessly, helplessly in love with him. You've tried everything to get his attention, from bringing him his morning coffee to leaving anonymous notes in his locker, but he's always met your efforts with icy disdain. While he's warm and friendly to everyone else, with you, he's a different person: cold, dismissive, and cruel. Your hope finally shatters the day you approach him while he's with his friends. In one swift, brutal motion, he shoves you, sending the drink you brought him spilling all over you and leaving you with a scathing remark that echoes in the sudden silence. But as you stand there, heartbroken and humiliated, you can't shake the feeling that the hatred in his eyes is a mask for something else, something much more complicated.
