Brielle Knight has just graduated from high school. It was the summer, she's working at a diner not too far from her house. Her life was average, but good enough for her. Everything changes when Nathan Campbell her childhood crush also known as her big brother's best friend comes home from college for the summer. It was just a childhood crush she says. Nathan notices how much Brielle have grown up since he's been gone. Brielle notices how every look he gives her sends a chill down her spine. Maybe it wasn't just a childhood crush. They both know that acting on this is off limits, but something being off limits only makes you want it more. Especially when it has black hair, blue eyes, tattoos, and a wicked tongue. But who will crack first? CAUTION!! WARNING!! : there will be foul language, abortions, sex, alcohol and drug use in this book. I will warn you before each chapter that contains these things. Thank you.

Football players are assholes. I know - my brother is their king. Older and annoyingly overprotective, he's the star quarterback at Santa Cruz High School. I love him, but everyone worships the air he breathes and it's suffocating. After a traumatic experience with a quarterback three years ago, I want nothing to do with boys and dating. All that matters is getting into college, so I ace my classes and sign up for my school's student ambassador program to boost my applications. Thankfully, I have my best friend, Harper, to get me through high school being overshadowed by my brother. My plans for a quiet, low-key senior year are destroyed when my brother's cocky, arrogant rival keeps butting into my life. Logan Hightower is a total player who expects me to drool at his feet while he uses me to burn my brother's game. If he thinks I'll fall for his gorgeous looks and shallow charms, he's totally mistaken. He'll never succeed because I hate football players. Note: Some of the chapters have mature content, as marked.
