Upsy Daisy by Chelsie Edwards

Upsy Daisy is the first book in the Higher Learning series by Chelsie Edwards.

Daisy Payton is perfection personified, or at least that’s the image her family wants her to project and it’s killing her spirit. College is Daisy’s chance to escape the pressures of her family’s expectations and figure out who she is on her own not who her family wants her to be. If that means telling a little white lie then so be it.

Trevor Boone doesn’t have a perfection problem. He’s got a ‘life has handed him nothing but issues’ problem. Abandoned as a child and then taken in by relatives who love reminding him how much of a burden he is, Trevor just wants something that’s his own and that he’s gotten on his own terms. Finishing college top of his class and living the life he wants to live is a part of that goal until he meets Daisy.

Neither Daisy nor Trevor can afford to be distracted by the sparks between them but their attraction to one another isn’t going anywhere. Ambition might be the very thing holding them back from fully stepping into the people they want to be, but it’s also possible that being together is just enough of a distraction to see their carefully laid plans all fall to ruin.

Upsy Daisy is available now as an e-book.
