Ariana is used to hiding from the noisy world in books, where everything is simple, clear, and always ends happily. But her measured life changes when she encounters Max Vlasov, annoyingly charming and self-confident friend of her brother.
One look from Max throws Ariana off balance, and the way he calls her «little one» makes her heart race. The girl desperately tries to ignore her feelings, as Max is also liked by her own sister, who is not going to give up. The rivalry intensifies, and every meeting with Max turns into a test, where not only his attention is at stake, but also family relationships.
This guy is far from a book hero from her favorite novels, but a basketball player with an untamed temperament. Will Ariana be able to accept him as he is, or will she continue to search for the ideal on the pages of books? Should she be afraid of pain if she can experience something truly alive and real?
