From their first day at the SCA- College of Law, they're locked in a rivalry that goes beyond textbooks and test scores. It's personal. It's consuming. And neither understands why the other brings out such strong reactions.
But when good intentions collide with wounded pride, their carefully constructed worlds begin to crumble. Some secrets destroy trust. Some lies are meant to help.
And sometimes, the person you're trying to save is the last person who wants your rescue.

When the lines blur and the rules no longer apply? What happens when the only thing more dangerous than losing... is wanting to?Complete
