A Study in Ruin

At the University of the West Indies, Nacheya Singh planned to follow the straight path: lectures, textbooks, and living up to her late mother's legacy as a psychologist. But her careful world shatters the day she sees Nicholas Richards.

Her first impression of him is all wrong;cash changing hands, whispers of drugs, the kind of boy she should avoid. Yet, in the classroom, Nicholas challenges her mind in ways no one else ever has.
Every debate, every challenge, every sharp answer makes it harder to dismiss him.

What Nacheya doesn't know is Nicholas doesn't hide who he is because he can't. By day, he's one of the university's brightest minds. By night, he's Croc's enforcer-collecting debts, moving product, and surviving under the grip of his ruthless stepfather.

She should stay away. He should keep his distance. But the closer they circle each other, the harder it becomes to separate rivalry from attraction, justice from vengeance, or love from ruin.

In Kingston, some truths can set you free. Others can bury you alive.
