Ruby thought that she and James had something special. She’s never had such strong feelings for someone. And after his betrayal, she’s also never felt this much hurt. Ruby just wants her old life back before she knew anyone at Maxton Hall, especially before she knew James. But as hard as tries, she can’t forget him….

When they both receive their acceptance to Oxford, James sees it as a punishment, while Ruby sees it as a dream come true. Ruby wants to support James as he struggles with his father’s expectations of him taking over the family business. But she makes one thing very clear: she is not willing to forgive him or give him a second chance. As love and hate compete for Ruby's heart, James will try everything he can to win her back.
