Every single moment before you came into my life pales in comparison after meeting you.
JJ Walker
I’ve spent nearly two and a half years simmering in regret because I allowed Marley to leave that night without getting her last name after falling hopelessly in love with her in the countryside of France. I look for her face in every crowd, hoping for another chance with the girl of my dreams, but for now, the letters I’ve written her are a window to my fracturing soul.
Marley Benson
I’m the first to admit I struggle trusting others.
Being the heiress set to inherit the billion dollar company my father runs, my entire future has been planned from the moment I was born. I’ve already broken the plan once by transferring from an Ivy League University to escape the pressures of my last name, to attend Beaumont University on the other side of the country. I can’t run forever, but I can avoid my fate a little longer.
The only thing I didn’t plan for was to run into JJ, the boy with eyes the color of spring, as my boyfriend, Trent, introduces me to his roommates.
Suddenly, everything I thought I knew no longer makes sense.
