At the age of nineteen moving to college, starting your new adult life and having the best time of your life was the goal for most teenagers.
But for Leila Hart it was the complete opposite.
It was a race to leave behind her toxic past, the past that demolished her image, her family, and her sanity. Moving and starting fresh was Leila's number one priority, she desperately sought to avoid the people that constantly reminded her that she was worthless but never had she thought she would meet someone who made her feel things that she thought she would never experience. . .
Extreme anger.
Leila never planned for things to become more complicated. Her life was never one of complicity.
After the night that two lives were taken right before her eyes, one of her brothers and the other of a little girl, nothing for her has been the same. Being neglected by her own parents and being shoved to the side by friends, falling into depression and self-harm, all this anti-social girl wanted to do was finish off with college and live her life freely.
Away from the people who intoxicated it.
After her dorm room is given off to another student Leila is stuck with no other than Professor Kingston, or as she simply calls him Mr Kingston.
The Scottish king with the body of a model, the mind of young Einstein and the attitude of a spoiled rich brat. But deep down Blake Kingston was more than that, he was a damaged little boy who also moved to escape his troubled past and along the way he encounters her. . .Leila Hart.
His past life that he tried to leave behind ruined him. It ruined the Blake Kingston everyone knew. The one who laughed every day, the one who brightened up the room with his cheerful voice.
The one who had actual feelings other than annoyance. His past that he tried to bury with this determined and cold facade, and yet still despite all of this he managed to crack.
Little did they know that they were both two broken souls who needed to patch each other up with the mess they called their life.
Little did they know that they were going to be ROOMMATES.
What happens when these two collide?
Fireworks and lethal wounds.

Anyone who is sensitive to self-harm and depression. I don't think this book is the best idea for you. Unless you're fine with it and you can handle it.
It's nothing that bad but occasionally there is something about it so just a warning to those who might get triggered.
