Dami is a third year student of the same university and he doesn't give two fucks about under age girls. They were never a center of attraction for him. Infact, he loathes them with passion. Dami is absolutely content with his sexually provocative lifestyle and he certainly doesn't need any of the problems that comes along with knowing Ore. With the wrong crowd cheering Ore on, will she be able to get Dami's attention? Or will her life keep on revolving in circles of endless passion and peer pressure. Side note: The sequel to this book titled Lies, Love and Deception is out now and is on my profile.
