"Everything has changed, I wanted more." * * * Ella's life can be described as an organized mess. She knows school, books, animals, and that her mom left her without a word three years ago. Her dad is around, but not as much as Ella needs. Now, at 18, she lives under the care of her older sister, Victoria, who really doesn't care about anyone but herself. Jasper Cunningham is the new cute waiter at Ella's favorite diner. A shy, clumsy, slightly awkward nineteen year-old that's a computer nerd and has been home schooled his whole life. Jasper's social skills have a limit, especially when it comes to talking to pretty girls. Jasper and Ella weave a new friendship that introduces her to Jasper's hectic, but lovable family. The Cunningham's are everything Ella wishes her family could be, but they don't hesitate to let Ella in. Their friendship leads to something more and intense. Nothing is ever as simple as that and it won't be an exception. Just when Ella thinks her world is coming together, it crashes all over again. --------------- *This is a spin-off of Best Kept Secret and Best Kept Promise, but you DO NOT need to read those books before this one. This book is New Adult and will contain minor sexual content and explicit language. Cover graciously given to me by @GlueEater

Dark haired and tattooed, Xavier looked like the ultimate bad boy...but weren't bad boys meant to have that boyish charm? The thing is, Xavier was extremely guarded, hot headed and quite frankly, scary. In fact, Xavier was many things but romantic and loving wasn't two of them. He was a building half built, a puzzle with half of the pieces missing... Until he met me. Warning: Bad language (lots of). A possessive delinquent that is guaranteed to make you smile (or cry.)

Exes aren't supposed to end up as best friends. Exes-turned-bff's should never have a one night stand. Dexter and Hadley do.

"First things first, learn how to loosen up. If you really want to learn, you can't be so uptight." He said as he circled around me. "It's just weird, I'm not used to it." I said shyly. He stopped, standing in front of me. He sighed. "Look Gracie, I'm not saying you should be totally open and comfortable with this, but I'm saying, if you want to learn, you're going to have to learn to trust me. Do you trust me?" I hesitated, then nodded lightly. "Good." He said with a small smirk. "Now lesson one," he started to circle me again, "You're going to learn how to kiss." (cover by: BeautyDoesntWither)
