Alexia Vanderbilt, no, that's not her real name, she changed it. She was tired of the sympathetic looks she kept receiving from everyone at Meridian College. Yes, she was brutally raped by her own father years ago and he killed her mother while he was drunk driving but that wasn't the only reason she decided to change her name and transfer to Hillview University. Her best friend, Bella King, was there, and that was a good enough reason. Bella went through her own experience that caused Alexia and her to grow closer together. Her mother is an alcoholic and her father is a drug addict. They practically raised one another. It's no wonder Alexia can't wait to join Bella at HU, she is soon to regret this decision when she meets Andrew Scott. No matter what Alexia does to let go of her traumatic past, it always seems to creep up on her, preventing her to think normal thoughts and run away from the feelings she is having about Andrew. Maybe she's just too damaged for love?
Andrew Scott comes from a wealthy family of parents who own a chain of celebrity-visited hotels. He also plays sports and is the star jock; like a typical and cliche jock, he is a ladies' man who is known to be with every girl for the night, only to throw her away at the curb after. When he sets his eyes on Alexia, he's feeling feelings that he has never felt before in a girl. He doesn't know it but he's playing with her heart and her mind.
Apart from dealing with boys and her thoughts, Alexia and Bella meet a hooded figure who tells them their parents were a type of demons, Reapers, who made a deal with the devil to turn their family human. The devil agreed, if they continued to do their work as Reapers. When Alexia's mom starts having human feelings and doesn't do her Reaper duties, the hooded figure comes after Alexia to drag her back to hell to replace her dead mother. After all, the universe needs to remain in balance.

"I don't know what to do Xavier..." I cry uncontrollably into his chest as he holds onto me for dear life. "I know love. I know."
"I'm such a bother to yall." I choke out. "I'm so fucking weak. I can't even defend myself." Xavier's arms unwrap from my body, and his hands hold my teary face. "I'm a worthless h-human." Xavier furrows his eyebrows in pain. A tear of his own falling down his face.
"No," he says shaking his head. "No. You've never been a bother to me. You aren't weak. And you most certainly aren't worthless." I gasp to breathe, and he continues talking. "What you are is an amazing person who hasn't let all of this crazy bullshit affect her. You handled it like a champ. What you are is a strong, brave being that has stood by my side." I breathe as he leans closer.
"What you are, is the love of my life...."
