Beck, a beautiful and privileged young woman, reflects on her past with a mix of self-awareness, entitlement, and vulnerability. She's always known how to play roles-whether it's the dutiful daughter, the high school queen bee, or the object of desire for classmates and admirers. Her beauty has always been her currency, and she's wielded it to secure attention, favors, and even academic support. In college, though, Beck meets her match in Jackson-a brilliant, awkward, and socially unaware freshman who doesn't fall at her feet like the others. He's kind, intelligent, and emotionally sincere, which both intrigues and confuses her. Used to being worshipped, Beck finds herself thrown off by Jackson's emotional intelligence, his refusal to be manipulated, and the way he sees through her confident facade. Their connection unfolds with complexity. Beck is initially drawn to Jackson because of the intrigue surrounding his rumored sexual prowess (shared between girls in her social circle). What she finds instead is something much deeper-someone who treats her like a human being rather than an icon. Jackson isn't the typical college guy; he's nerdy, direct, and wildly intelligent, often using metaphors and logic to explain everything from accounting to emotional dynamics. Their budding romance is filled with awkward starts, miscommunications, and moments of surprising emotional intimacy. Beck, for the first time, begins to experience love and connection not based on status or seduction, but on respect and vulnerability. As she drops her performative layers, she discovers what it means to be truly seen. ------ Ebook will released in June 30th in this year and a physical copy will coming soon.
