'Look at me, Celeste,' he gently lifts her chin up with the tips of his slender fingers. 'I'm right here, okay?'
***
When Celestine Vora enrols at the elite Marion University to study medicine, the last person she expected to come face to face with was Adrian Schulz. Always condescending, never conceding. As her brother's best friend, he always caught glances of her in the background, the silent, quiet shadow of an adopted girl who never quite matched her brother's innate talent. One who always seemed to be a hindrance, his biggest competitor for valedictorian in high school. He was looking forward to a fresh start.

That is, until she shows up in front of his apartment in the middle of the night, and shakily utters the words, 'He's missing.'

People beg to partner with her on an assignment, but not just for the help, but to just experience what it is like to bathe in her presence. She is perfect, after all. That's what the people around her would say. But is that the truth? Christian Beaulieu is what Celeste would call a naturally gifted idiot. Unlike Celeste, his easy thinking and easy achieving A* come to him without all the extra hassle. Now, what is one thing that pisses of someone, who is thoroughly recognized for their talent? Someone who is more talented, without all the effort.... Through their last year of school, Christian and Celeste are unwillingly thrown into each other's presence constantly. This forces them to understand each other, to an extent both deemed impossible. ***************************************** "But we are alone now," I breathe lowly, as his nose gently brushes against mine. He inhales deeply, tilting my head back further, to give himself better access to my lips. "Yes, we are," He whispers.... ***************************************** ******TW- Eating disorder, harassment Mental breakdowns, and experiences with real life issues!****** THERE WILL BE MANY SPICY SCENES! (I WILL NOT DISSAPOINT) **This is a book that explores true emotion** **The m/c WILL NOT be cold and nonchalant. I want him to be able to properly communicate and experience real emotions.

The thing she never imagined in her rarest dreams gave her pleasure and Adrian soon turned out to be her only craving. ** "And it would be better if we keep a professional relationship. Just like a boss and employee. And never try to manhandle me the way you are doing now." And I turned around. I approached the door, but Adrian whirled me and pinned me against the door by my shoulders. "Your big mouth needs to be punished for spitting in front of your Boss," before I could apprehend his words, I found his lips on mine. ** "I had a dream this afternoon. You spanked me." Adrian laughed, "You dreamed of me spanking you." I nodded my head. "And you thought my punishment would be that simple." And his words made my breath stuck in my throat.

In which I fall in love with my brother's best friend. ***** "Don't pretend like you don't feel anything." His voice is low, sending shivers down my spine. "What do you mean?" "You know damn well what I mean." "I don't know what you're talking about." I pretend to ignore him, flipping some pages in my book. "Come on. I have all these assignments waiting. Aren't you supposed to teach me tonight?" "It depends on what you want me to teach."
