In which I fall in love with my brother's best friend. ***** "Don't pretend like you don't feel anything." His voice is low, sending shivers down my spine. "What do you mean?" "You know damn well what I mean." "I don't know what you're talking about." I pretend to ignore him, flipping some pages in my book. "Come on. I have all these assignments waiting. Aren't you supposed to teach me tonight?" "It depends on what you want me to teach." He smirks, his voice sounding even more dangerous. ***** I thought that my brother was the most popular guy in school, but as soon as I step into my university life, I realize how wrong I was. Meet Vaughn Cooper, his best friend. The guy is the epitome of every girl's dream. Godlike handsome. The quarterback. He's got the looks, and he's got the brain. Come on, he's got the scholarship to one of the most prestigious universities in the country, while I have just barely passed the entrance examination after long years of struggle during high school. How could a guy who worked that hard and deserves nothing more but adoration be labeled as a bad boy? Yeah, the answer is simple. The moment we lock eyes, I realize something as I stare into those piercing, amber eyes. He's not every girl's dream. He's every girl's nightmare. In my case, MY nightmare. Calm down, heart.

college hockey player Jackson Blythe makes a bet that he can stay away from chicks for a whole month, he decides that he needs someone to help him stay accountable. when he finds out that Ameeriah Jonas' crazy ex won't leave her alone, it seems like the most perfect opportunity- she can make sure he doesn't hook up with randoms at parties, and he can make sure her ex doesn't bother her. the dating may be fake, but the fake feelings and the real feelings start to become blurred as they continue spending late nights together and find out that they may care more about each other more than they realize.

Amelia Promise has spent her life just one treehouse away from the Evermore brothers. Growing up next door, she and Cole Evermore have been inseparable best friends since childhood- midnight talks, icecream Fridays, and shared dreams under the stars that hovered over their backyard hideaway. But everything changed when high school hit and Cole became a different version of himself-popular, charming, and within the fading memories of childhood, Amelia realized she developed a huge crush. Enter Chase Evermore-Cole's older brother. Quieter, more observant, and maybe too good at seeing through Amelia's walls. While they're all home from college for summer, he offers to help her get Cole's attention. It seems like the perfect plan. But as long days blur into long nights, Amelia finds herself working through complicated feelings. Now caught between the boy she's always wanted and the one who might actually see her, Amelia must figure out where her heart truly belongs before the summer ends.

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)

Arabella never meant to get close to someone like him. Warren is reckless, unreadable, and surrounded by rumors that make people run. But the more she's warned to stay away, the more she wants to know why he hides behind those walls...and why he can't seem to stay away from her either. ────୨ৎ──── Warren Reid is a name everyone in town knows, and not for good reasons.
