The captain of our soccer team, Xavi Parker, a beautiful, young, athletic boy. The college girls were obsessed over him and his boys. The boys were jealous of him and his position and his golden reputation, but not everyone was impressed by the soccer players. He's handsome, cocky and hot, and he knows it. Xavi Parker is aware, but why would a guy like Xavi Parker fall in love with a girl like me? The moment he told me, my life turned upside down. This boy knew he could get anything, anyone, but he fell for a girl like me. He cared about me in a way I couldn't imagine, a way I never experienced before, a feeling I couldn't accommodate. "Why do you care, Xavi?" He looks up and meets my eyes, not looking away. Xavi told me nothing, but the truth, that was one of the reasons I cared about him. I cared about him in a way I never cared. He does care about me, but can't place this feeling. I wasn't special and I understood it loud and clear. Girls like me aren't used to feelings like this, they aren't used to the feeling of love. It scares me, how long before someone takes this away? How long can he handle me and my dramatic past? He takes a deep breath, and he smiles, "How can I not care about someone like you. You're my sun and darkness, you're my heroin. You're it, Lun."

Hazel has ambition and drive. Everything in her life is calculated. She has rules and regulations specifically set in place to make her dreams come true. Applying to her dream college on a whim and getting accepted isn't one of them, especially not in her last year of college. The most important one yet. But it's too big of an opportunity to pass up. The only exception, she tells herself. The first and last rule break she will ever allow herself. What she doesn't know is that joining the school is just the beginning of a vast spiral of life-changing rule breaks. Beginning with getting in that damn car... Damien Hunter is rude and annoying to the point where he brings out the worst in kind, sweet Hazel who usually would ignore such insolence. Much to Damien's pleasure - he seems to enjoy getting under the skin of the girl who is so kind and sweet to others but so impolite with him. Between their constant bickering, small but meaningful moments bloom, arising raw powerful emotions that scare the life out of them both, and their inner demons.
