After a late night fight between Alex Summers and her ex goes terribly wrong, her parents ship her off to spend a stress-free summer in Los Angeles. But the second she steps off the plane, Alex stumbles into California bad boy Elias King, a too-hot-to-handle heartbreaker with a taste for trouble. ***** When Alex and Elias find themselves stuck living under the same roof, their sexual tension's undeniable, but their differences set them on a warpath to destroy each other. Elias bets he can steal her heart and seduce her in thirty days, while Alex swears she can keep him one-night-stand-free and have him sober by the end of the summer. All's fair in love and war if you're playing by the rules, but this time around, there are no limits.

Ariel Valentine had it all. She had the looks, the friends and the grades. She may not have been the most popular girl in school but she was definitely well known. Everyone called her a troublemaker because she would cause everyone (mainly guys) trouble and grief. Why is that? Because she enjoys seeing guys get hurt. She has a painful past and doesn't want anyone to know her true intentions. When rumors start circling around that a new 'bad boy' is coming to school Ariel takes this as a whole new game. But little does she know that Louis will twist her world into something she never expected. What will happen when he tries things other boys didn't dare do? Will she fight back, or be to overwhelmed to do so?
