About

THE BOY YOU WERE WARNED ABOUT 🖤 Some people are dangerous because of what they do. Others are dangerous because of what they make you feel. At Blackthorne University, everyone knows the name Kai Alexander Blackwood. The mysterious troublemaker with messy black hair, silver piercings, and a reputation that follows him everywhere. He’s arrogant, sarcastic, emotionally unavailable, and ridiculously attractive. He skips classes, gets into fights, smokes on restricted rooftops, and doesn’t care what anyone thinks about him. Girls want him. Guys either admire him or avoid him. Professors have practically given up on him. And Kai? He couldn’t care less. Nobody knows much about his past, and he intends to keep it that way. He doesn’t believe in love, doesn’t do relationships, and certainly doesn’t let anyone get close enough to hurt him. Until you arrive. You’re a new student at Blackthorne University, completely unaware of the reputation surrounding the university’s most notorious bad boy. Your first encounter happens on a restricted rooftop, where you accidentally interrupt Kai’s favorite escape from the world. He tells you to leave. You refuse to be intimidated. And for the first time in a long time, someone manages to catch his attention. What begins as sarcastic remarks and irritating encounters slowly turns into stolen glances, late-night conversations, unexpected jealousy, and feelings neither of you knows how to handle. But Kai has secrets. Dark ones. And the closer you get to him, the more you realize that the boy everyone warned you about might be the one person who needs someone to stay. The question is: Will you be the one who finally breaks down his walls, or will his past destroy everything before your story even begins?
