"There were things that I hated missing. Like how I had just missed an opportunity to kiss her in that empty English classroom. But then again, I'm glad I missed that chance, because I can't afford to miss her if I'm the reason she's dead."
Luca Alfero is terrified of love.
He hates love because it solely destroyed his family. His father was murdered because of it.
Ten years later and the same people that killed his father are vowing to take away everything that his father ever loved, including Luca. So in an attempt to escape death, he allows his cousin to convince him to move to an empty Virginia town for four years of college. And somehow at that seemingly barren Virginia college, Luca finds his worst enemy yet; love.
But for Luca, it’s going to take so much more than getting over his fears to save not only himself, but everyone around him, too.
