" They say opposites attract but I say they mend and complete"
She built walls.
He built bridges.
Jasmine has spent her whole life believing one thing: if you don't strike first, you'll be the one who gets hurt. Brilliant, fiercely independent, and impossible to intimidate, she's one of the top architecture students at one of Europe's most prestigious universities. Trust doesn't come naturally to her-it isn't an option.
Oliver has lived a completely different life. Reserved, disciplined, and devoted to his business degree, he has no interest in distractions. He doesn't know how to express love with words because he's never been shown what it looks like. Instead, he says everything through quiet acts of service, expecting nothing in return.
When an international architecture competition forces two complete opposites onto the same team, every conversation turns into a battle of wills. She pushes everyone away before they can leave. He refuses to give up on people, even when they give him every reason to.
The competition is hard , the judges aren't impressed easily and jasmine is determined to win with a lot of ideas and a stubborn head to execute them even though they are impossible but he is the the voice of the group because the other members are.... uncooperative to say the least . She will win .she will win .she could win.she could win . She could win. She has to win .she has to win. She needs to win . She NEEDS to win . She....needs...to..win .
Between impossible deadlines, sleepless nights, distrust not because she doesn't want to because she doesn't know how and a partnership neither of them wanted, they begin to unravel the parts of themselves they've spent years trying to hide.
Because sometimes the strongest foundations aren't made of concrete.
They're built by the people who choose to stay.
" He made her feel safe enough to be completely herself"
