Complete! Joshua Manfred is untouchable. He turns down every confession of love (or lust) and puts a quick stop to every fight, earning him the nickname Peacemaker. He is calm, cool, and always in control. I, on the other hand, am a mess. People think I'm smart because I'm quiet and I read, a lot. But I am disorganized, always hungry, and I have almost no friends, mostly because I would rather read than talk to people. I am the last person someone like Joshua would think about. Enter the group project. Most dreaded of all assignments. Will my heart survive a week working with the most wanted guy in school? Probably not, but it could be worse. When a suave stranger comes to whisk me off my feet in decedent romance, things get worse and Joshua is NOT calm or cool about it. Content warning: Cussing, school fights (non-graphic), steamy romance (again, non-graphic)
