He humiliated her.He broke her.Then he disappeared.
Three years later, he’s back.
Same campus. Same classes.
And worse? He chose this.
Ivy has no interest in forgiveness. No interest in him. She’s built something strong from the wreckage he left behind, and she won’t let him tear it down again.
But Ethan isn’t the same boy she remembers.
He watches closely.Pushes too far.And refuses to let her go.
Forced into a partnership neither of them wants, every moment turns into a battle of control, resentment, and something far more dangerous.
Because hate doesn’t feel this intense.
And no matter how much Ivy wants to forget…Ethan was never something she survived.
He was something she never got over.
