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.

The devil's favorite little toy.

Rose was being watched. He watched her every move. He would watch her until she was his. Rose McCoy - a normal girl. She had family and friends she loved. Her life was - as most people would call it - perfect. When she turns 18, something changes. She is being watched. She shrugs it of as nothing but imagination. But she grows more paranoid when she keeps seeing the same man everywhere. Instead of fear she feels - attraction? She hasn't even seen his face and she is attracted to him. Why? ~~~~~~~ When he saw her for the first time, he instantly felt attracted to her. He had to have her. He saw her for the first time at a beach party. She was so beautiful with her blond hair and her deep blue eyes. It was the first time he had ever felt so attracted to a human. A weak human. He had to have her. And he sure was getting her. He watched her. His name was Lucifer - the devil - and she was going to be his bride.

Finally sitting in the plane, I took out my favorite book. It was a mafia romance book. Some people find it weird that I read those, but mafia books are actually my favorite. After a while I noticed from the corner of my eye a silhouette, definitely a man, sitting right next to me. Soon I could feel his gaze on me and my book. Normally it wouldn't bother me, but his gaze was so intense it made a rush of heat run through my body. I could feel my heart beat a little too fast, that I even started feeling a slight pain in my chest. But then something unexpected happened. The man beside me leaned forward and started whispering something that caused my heart to completely stop beating for a second. "I don't know why these books romanticize mafia bosses, but I can surely tell you that in reality, we're not that nice sweetheart"
