She learned young that people leave. Her mother died when she was four. Years later, her father’s business went bankrupt, and somewhere between losing everything and drowning himself in alcohol, he stopped being the father she remembered. Now she’s twenty-one, reckless, independent, and completely unapologetic. She parties too much, drinks too much, sleeps with whoever she wants, and doesn’t care what anyone thinks about her. Then there’s Nathan. Assistant captain of the hockey team. Rich. Charming. Academically successful. Raised in Hastings by two high-powered lawyer parents, with a perfect family and a future practically handed to him. Nathan doesn’t do relationships. She doesn’t trust people. So when they agree to keep things casual, it should be easy. No feelings. No expectations. No getting attached. But casual becomes complicated when Nathan starts seeing the parts of her nobody else does—and she starts realizing that maybe he’s not the spoiled rich boy she thought he was. Because sometimes the person who looks like they have everything is the one person who makes you want to risk losing everything.
