BOOK 1 in the Drowning/Bully Standalone Series. WARNING: This book contains intense bullying, explicit scenes, triggering language, violence, and psychological content. I told Caden to cancel his stupid party. He told me, with that infuriating smirk, "Why? Planning to be my snack tonight?" Caden has made my life hell for four years, ever since our parents got married. He's gorgeous, arrogant, and the kind of boy Stanford girls trip over themselves for. Me? I'm the only one who sees right through him. He's a blatant bully, the devil who turned me into a surreptitious one. And now we're stuck sharing the same off-campus apartment for our entire freshman year. Living together means new rules, no boundaries... and a tension I never expected. The closer we get, the harder it becomes to remember why we ever hated each other in the first place- and nothing threatens our pride more than that. *** Step into an adventure of passion, forgiveness, and second chances. This is Caden and Madison's story.

Si Sky ay isang anak ng Army General. Mahigpit at mataas ang pangarap para sakaniya, minsan ay isinama siya ng Ama sa Conference Meeting nito at nakilala niya si Capt. Gringgo hanggang sa dumalas ang kanilang pagkikita dahil natuto ang babae na tumakas. Ngunit hindi alam ng babae, na mayroong nakamasid sa bawat galawa niya. Ito ay si General MJ, pinabantayan siya rito ng kaniyang Ama. Sa hindi inaasahan ay nahulog ang loob niya dito, iniwan niya si Capt. Gringgo. Tutol ang Ama ni Sky sa relasyon nito kay General MJ, lahat ng pag iwas at pagtatago ay ginawa ng lalaki. Hanggang sa napagod na si Sky, kusa na rin itong lumayo.

Ayaw niya talagang mapabilang sa klaseng iyon. Mayroon kasing mga lalaking malakas mang-trip, kinaayawan ng mga babaeng kaklase. May nang-aasar at mapapahiya kang talaga. At mayroong mga lalaki na masama kung tumingin, halos burahin ka sa paningin nila at may isa pa na tila matindi ang galit sa mundo. Hindi niya alam kung bakit ayaw siya nito.
