Study Games by Sofia Aves

Science girl meets bad artist boy and takes him down but not without incurring scars of her own.

Waverly Alloway just wants to study, graduate and be a geek. If that makes her boring, then so be it. She loves spending quite time with her bee hives, but being the smartest girl in her class means she’s put on tutoring duty where each hour is torture.
Jax Palmer’s bad boy attitude is a facade. The artist in him craves solitude and silence, but to survive Rippton U, he’s created a persona to cover who he really is, and be what everyone else appears to want from him.
But with Waverly, the deception drops away. Jax isn’t the only one with a secret, and his past time of digging beneath the geeky-as-cute girl’s skin fast becomes a craving he can’t stop – nor does he want to. Her past could tarnish them both, but he refuses to let her crumble alone…

Even if it means showing who he really is to a judgemental world that will take his penance out on her.
