When Lucy Bradley is transferred from her school to St. Bartholomew's Academy after years of consistent harassment and bullying from her own classmates that nearly beat the abuse she was already suffering at the hands of her own father, she just wants one thing.
Peace.
But Jack Foster, star football player at St. Bartholomew's, has different plans. The moment he set his eyes on her, he knew he needed to have her, and he wasn't going to stop until he did.
The story of a girl who believed she was incapable of being loved, and a boy who gave her all the love he never knew he had.
