J'ai souhaité nommer cette introduction "Vers un monde sans tabou" car c'est exactement les premiers mots qui me viennent en tête lorsque je parle avec ma mamie. J'espère que ces premiers mots vous plairont et...

Except that best friend I was determined to stay away from is now my new roommate. My very naughty, very rebellious roommate, Wesley Knight. The boy who was once the bane of my existence with his constant teasing is now a drop-dead gorgeous athlete.
