There was the time before Tessa met Hardin, and then thereβs everything AFTER... Life will never be the same. #Hessa
Tessa is a good girl with a sweet, reliable boyfriend back home. Sheβs got direction, ambition, and a mother whoβs intent on keeping her that way.
But sheβs barely moved into her freshman dorm when she runs into Hardin. With his tousled brown hair, cocky British accent, tattoos, and lip ring, Hardin is cute and different from what sheβs used to.
But heβs also rudeβto the point of cruelty, even. For all his attitude, Tessa should hate Hardin. And she doesβuntil she finds herself alone with him in his room. Something about his dark mood grabs her, and when they kiss it ignites within her a passion sheβs never known before.
Heβll call her beautiful, then insist he isnβt the one for her and disappear again and again. Despite the reckless way he treats her, Tessa is compelled to dig deeper and find the real Hardin beneath all his lies. He pushes her away again and again, yet every time she pushes back, he only pulls her in deeper.
Tessa already has the perfect boyfriend. So why is she trying so hard to overcome her own hurt pride and Hardinβs prejudice about nice girls like her?
