Book IV of the UNC Series Carter Blake has a bone-deep hatred for the world-and especially for the people in it. All he wants is to keep his head down, focus on school and basketball, and avoid the mess of human connection. After enduring years of pain at the hands of his alcoholic mother, he's determined to cut ties with her and her endless web of lies. But the past isn't content to stay buried, and the universe seems intent on collecting on debts he's been trying to forget. Addison Kelton has always been called a bitch, long before her best friend's death hardened her even further. Now, her walls are sky-high, and she's determined to keep everyone out. She drowns her invisible scars in ink, pouring everything into her art and the future she promised her best friend she'd fight for. Nothing else matters-not her overbearing stepfather and certainly not the memories that refuse to stay in the past.

Everyone says that healing is a personal journey- that you must be self-sufficient and independent... but well- historically that just does not happen. Healing has always been done by or with a community. So, when River and Amelia are constantly pushed together by their friends- as they clash and then work to form a friendship that turns into so much more- what happens when maybe the path to healing is not so simple as ticking off Amelia's self-care checklist, what happens when both Amelia and River find themselves needing each other in more ways than one? Relationships sustain us, but they also destroy us. Can both find the trust that they need to love each other healthily?

Welcome to Red Ridge, where the water is warm, the weather is hot, and the relationships are slow-burning. Reed Langley is a smart girl, but she tends to lose her common sense when Farris Matthews is in the same room as her. The problem is that this is often the case, seeing as they're best friends. She was warned against being friends with the bad boy, but nobody can deny that he loves to be around her. She wanted a bad boy who is good for only her, and she got one. But she wants more, and she's starting to realize that she can't get it from him. Charlotte Alexander has everything she wants. Almost. Maybe it's 'the chase' or maybe it's just insta-lust, but she's wanted Alexander Thompson since the day she met him and he happens to be the only guy who doesn't seem to want her, but she's not planning on giving up any time soon. Maddison Kingsley is a fighter. But usually, she finds herself fighting to be alone, so her new inclination to fight to be close to someone so different confuses the hell out of her. Aaron Alexander apparently knows who she is, or maybe it's just her reputation that he's heard of, and she finds herself wanting a chance to show him that she's not who they say she is. Lucy Kennedy is the new girl on campus, and she's painfully aware that she's only there for soccer. She almost decides to give it up entirely until someone convinces her to stick with it in order to continue doing what she loves. She quickly develops a confusing crush on a friend, trying desperately to untangle her thoughts and feelings before she loses all that she has.

FREE STORY. PAID BONUS CHAPTERS. There's a thin line between love and hate. One thing Rosalie Jackson knows for sure is that what she feels towards star college hockey player Roman King is definitely hate and that feeling is mutual. Having hated each other ever since they met in freshman year under not-so-great circumstances, nothing has changed two years on. What they see as hate everyone else sees as sexual tension, and there are only so many insults they can throw at each other before that tension is released. Their feud continues through junior year and as much as they would love to avoid each other at all costs, they keep getting thrown together under the worst circumstances possible. As their rivalry heats up, so do their consequences. Stuck with each other for a full year, they'll find themselves spending more and more time together than ever before. Hockey games, temptation, and science experiments will go wrong. At the end of it all, maybe, just maybe, they'll become each other's perfect obsession.

Sequel • Worth Fighting For It is commonly known and spoken that time heals all wounds. But what they don't tell you is that those wounds remain, leaving behind a plastic film of torment and affliction with those subconscious memories nudging you like an old friend from the past. It can be four years. Four years of moving on and thinking that you're healed with the replacement and reminder of a child you couldn't love more even if you tried. Savannah had herself convinced that she'd moved on from Joshua Parker, but she was not too naïve to know that even if wounds heal, they will leave behind the scar that can't be forgotten about as easily as you would think.
