Atnerb never planned to fall in love .
A quiet, guarded medical student at the University of Chicago, she keeps her world small-buried in textbooks, routines, and the lingering shadows of a past relationship that left more scars than memories. Love, to her, is a risk she can't afford to take twice.
Knox is everything she isn't.
A sharp-tongued, rebellious law student with a reputation for breaking rules and hearts, he doesn't believe in love-only in control. His past taught him that feelings are liabilities, and he's built his life on never needing anyone.
When fate forces them into each other's orbit, rivalry sparks before anything else. Clashing personalities, stolen glances, and words that cut a little too deep-what starts as tension quickly becomes something neither of them can ignore.
But some wounds don't heal easily.
And when two broken people collide, will they learn to rebuild together... or will their pasts tear them apart before they even begin?
