    ❝ You make this messed-up world look so much more beautiful. ❞ Gathering me in his arms, he pulled me close -- his lips seeking mine hungrily.
        
        ────────────────
        
        The only thing Summer Hale has ever wanted was to live peacefully away from her secrets, away from the lies. 
        
        When she pursues to study at Brickfields University after an unfortunate twist of fate, she believes she could live the life she has always dreamt of while finding the answers to a box of letters her mother left behind.
        
        Even if it's only for a short while. 
        
        But after meeting mysterious and charming Gray Stanford, her life takes a thrilling and dangerous turn as dark pasts, disturbing secrets, and demons buried long ago resurface.
        
        Sometimes, it's the people who are closest to us that we should be careful of.
        
        What's college without a little crazy?
