WINTER
I am a St. James.Not by blood, but by marriage.
For seven years, Vivienne St. James made my life a nightmare. Beautiful, cruel, and impossible to escape.
When my mother divorced her cheating father, I took the first chance I got and left for France.
For three years, I was free.
But not I was back.And I find everything completely different from the way that I left it.My mother had started her father making us step sisters again.
I'm back in New York on a full scholarship to St. Celestine University; a school built on privilege, secrets, and scandals.
And its Ice Queen is still Vivienne St. James.
The girl I hate.The girl who hates me
The girl I was going to seduce and make mine.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
VIVIENNE
Winter Durceaux was back.
After two years, she was standing on my campus again.
And she an entirely different person.One who oozed in confidence and arrogance.
She thinks I hate her.
Maybe I do
Or maybe I hate that she's the only person I've never been able to forget.
St. Celestine destroys people like Winter.
But something told me she was going to destroy me first.

My mind is a hurricane of noise and rage, and she was the only thing quiet enough to cut through it. Ava was my downfall. But she was also the only calm I'd ever tasted.Concluida
