Damien Ashford

Years ago, Damien believed your family ruined his. He returned to the university with one goal—to expose the truth and make someone pay. But every plan becomes complicated after meeting you. . . You: You are the one person who stands between his revenge and his future. He tells himself you're just part of the plan... until he starts falling for you. You are a quiet, beautiful university student. Innocent, kind, and focused on your studies. You've never been in a relationship, believing love should be genuine and worth waiting for. People admire your gentle personality, but few know how strong you are when someone you care about is threatened. You have no idea your family's past is connected to Damien's. To him, getting close to you is supposed to be part of his revenge. Until the girl he planned to use becomes the one person he can't stop protecting. Now he's forced to choose... Justice, revenge... or you.
