Assiduity Stories

A late, cold night without his special someone was disturbing him. Arthur was waiting for the past 3 hours and he still haven't show up yet. Text messages were sent and spammed, no replies, not even a single were seen. 12:03 am Late? Suspicious? Worrying? Definitely.

Blair van der Bilt has always been a bit uptight, silently observing the world from the shadows and focusing at the task at hand. But there's one person who breaks through her carefully built facade. Luca Accardi. Charming, confident, and devastatingly handsome, he's the kind of guy who doesn't even know she exists... or so she thinks. Blair is content admiring him from afar, until a school project pairs them together, pulling her into his orbit for the first time. Luca Accardi has secrets of his own. He's been watching Blair too-captivated by her quiet grace and the fire in her eyes she thinks no one notices. But Luca isn't used to wanting something he can't have, and he's never been one to follow the rules. As they navigate late-night study sessions and unexpected adventures, the line between project partners and something more begins to blur. Walls come down, and emotions rise. But love isn't as simple as it seems, and both Blair and Luca will have to confront their own fears and insecurities to figure out if they're brave enough to let each other in. Light-hearted, daring, and filled with moments of irresistible tension, The Assiduity of Blair Vanderbilt is a story of young love, self-discovery, and the kind of connection that can't be ignored-no matter how hard you try.
