Everyone knows Kai as the reckless playboy who never takes anything seriously. Charming, rich, and always the life of the party, he’s built a reputation on fleeting hookups and bad decisions—and he has no intention of changing.
Until one drunken party game changes everything.
When someone dares Kai to kiss the prettiest girl in the room, he walks straight toward Camille—known to everyone as Cami—the quiet, polished law student who looks far too composed to belong at one of his chaotic parties. What’s supposed to be a quick kiss turns into a heated makeout session neither of them can forget.
Especially Kai.
Behind Cami’s perfect grades and carefully planned future is a secret dream she’s never dared say out loud: she wants to be an author. Raised by her strict aunt and pressured into pursuing law, Cami has spent years hiding the stories she writes in private, convinced the people in her life would never approve of the future she actually wants.
But Kai sees something in her no one else does.
Soon he’s finding every excuse possible to see her—late-night drives, coffee runs, random visits that somehow always end with him reading her drafts and pushing her to believe in herself. Beneath Kai’s careless reputation is someone who understands her creativity in a way no one ever has, and little by little, he becomes the inspiration behind the stories she’s always been afraid to write.
But falling for each other was never part of the plan.
As feelings deepen and the pressure of expectations threatens to pull them apart, Kai and Cami must decide whether they’re willing to risk the lives everyone expects of them for a love that feels like the beginning of their real story.
