"Why is it the best book?" He asks, innocently. Oh, boy. "Cause it has tons of sex scenes," I answer honestly. I'm nervous about where this conversation is going, but I hide it. I smile seductively and look up at him through my eyelashes. "Oh, yeah?" He smirks, getting even closer to me. "Mmm," I hum, unable to form words. He walks forward enough so that his body is practically pressed up against mine. With my back against the wall, I have no where to go. He focuses his gaze on my arm as he traces the scar that's formed there. His touch ignites my skin and makes my whole body feel like it's on fire. "Which scene is your favorite?" He asks, his voice almost a whisper. I wait for him to meet my eyes. When he does, I can see something burning in there, something that can only be put out one way. I swallow once to gather up enough courage to say what's next on my mind. "Want me to show you?" ------------ WARNING: MATURE THEMES THROUGHOUT BOOK. WILL BE SPECIFIED IN AUTHOR'S NOTE.

When River crosses paths with a man who speaks to every hidden hunger inside her, their connection spirals into an all-consuming pull neither of them can resist-but is she Grayson's salvation... or his ruin? *** Everyone in River Avelle's hometown knows about Grayson Maddox-the troubled bad boy who almost killed another student in the middle of the school hallway. Those who look into Grayson's eyes only see pure fury and hatred. They all think he's beyond redemption, even Grayson himself. But not River. As the seemingly perfect good girl, River saw something more in those alluring grey eyes. Something worth holding onto. From the first time their eyes connect, both Grayson and River feel the intense, undeniable attraction between them...but neither of them understand what's pulling them together so fiercely. The closer they get and the more vulnerable they become, River has to wonder: is she saving Grayson from his darkness? Or is she just pulling him further into hers? *** He tips my head toward his with his index finger, keeping my eyes trained on him and driving me crazy with the primal look on his face. His grey eyes look heavy, filled with dark desire, and a shock runs up through my core. Everything around us disappears and all I can sense is him and the hardness pressing between my legs. "What are you doing to me, River?" he whispers, his voice raspy and utterly captivated. His face is lowering and I'm closing my eyes, waiting for soft lips to press against mine. My whole body is on fire as I hold my breath for his touch. *** Cover by @strayin
