Quinn Hartley's life has always been quiet-hidden behind her baggy clothes, oversized glasses, and her secret journal filled with fantasy novels she never intends to share. But when Blake Daniels, Westview High's golden boy and captain of the football team, gets his hands on her most private thoughts, her world spirals out of control.

Blake isn't just any enemy. He's hellbent on making Quinn's life miserable, all because her sister stole his sister's fiancé. He's tormented her for years, but now he has the ultimate weapon-her journal, filled with scandalous secrets and a fantasy that involves the two of them. To keep Blake's mouth shut, Quinn strikes a dangerous deal: she'll be whatever he wants, as long as he keeps her secret.

But what starts as blackmail soon turns into something darker and hotter than either of them expected. The lines between hatred and desire blur as Quinn starts to see the boy behind the bruised heart. And Blake? Well, he can't decide if he wants to break Quinn... or worship her.

"You hate me, Princess? You sure about that?"Blake's smirk is dangerous, but Quinn's pulse races, because maybe... she doesn't.

When secrets, jealousy, and lust collide, will their paper hearts survive, or will they be left with nothing but bruises?
