Mae Daniels is moving on from her small town life style to bigger and better things at the University of Arkansas. She loves everything about her new life, like her classes, new friends, a library full of books and there is a coffee shop right on campus. What's not to love? Everything is falling into place just like Mae always wanted, until she meets one of those guys. A guy covered in tattoos, a secret always hidden within his reach, and a daunting past he wishes not to talk about. It's not all roses when Mae Daniels meets Hero Fiennes-Tiffin, the person who makes her question everything.
