Tessa Young is an 18 year old college student with a simple life, excellent grades, and a sweet boyfriend. She always has things planned out ahead of time, until she meets a rude boy named Hardin, with too many tattoos and piercings who shatters her plans.

Born into poverty, Petianna Bami Velasco learned early that dreams were a luxury she couldn't afford. Selling vegetables was her childhood; survival was her education. When the powerful Ladesma family takes her in, she's thrown into a world she was never meant to belong to. A world of privilege, expectations, and quiet cruelty. Everyone shows her kindness-except Koen Ladesma. Cold, distant, and unrelenting, he reminds her at every turn that she is only a guest in his life. But beneath his harsh words lies something far more dangerous: a tenderness he refuses to admit, and a pull she knows she shouldn't feel. And in a world that has already taken so much from her, Petianna risks losing the one thing she swore to protect-her heart.
