Brea Lancaster may have been born in the country, but she is a city girl through and through. She is stylish, influential, and loves the excitement that the party life has to offer. When she receives a call from her brother, who she hasn't spoken to in years, she is forced to return to her small country town that she hasn't been back to visit for almost a decade. Glendale is far from the pretty lights and vibrant parties of the city that Brea is used to. Especially the people in town. When Brea runs into-quite literally-her brother's nemesis and childhood friend, Zander, Brea starts to wonder whether everything she has grown up to think of Glendale may not to be true. This is a contemporary romance about a girl learning there is more to life than what meets the eye, and realizing how incredible but terrifying, falling in love is. A steamy, small town, brother's rival romance.

"What the hell do you want Greyson?" I shout unlocking the door. It's raining heavily so I don't even bother hiding the irritation laced in my voice. I swing the door open about to continue my rant when I'm brought to a halt by his lips crashing down on mine. In one swift motion his arms are around my waist pulling my body flush against his, closing all distance between us. I don't even hesitate to kiss him back, all thoughts from a second ago withering away as I melt into his embrace. The kiss is electric, his lips bringing me to life ; igniting me in the best way possible. I snake my arms up to the nape of his neck grabbing his hair, kissing him hard with so much emotion. In response, he kisses me even harder moaning into my mouth before gliding his tongue hungrily against mine. It takes a while to register that I'm standing in my doorway kissing Greyson freaking Reynolds, the guy I hated from before I can remember. He pulls back breathlessly, and I open my eyes as he finally replies to the question I forgot I asked. "You."

His cruel blue eyes stared down at her with a certain fire, as his lips changed from a snarl to a evil smirk, as he stood over her. "Stay out of my way, Mavis." He sneers at her before walking away from her, and down the crowded hall towards his fIrst hour class. Mavis took a deep breath, as she reached down and grabbed her text books and backpack. She readjusted her fro and rushed to her class as she tried not to cry. She had just bumped into Eryx Mason. Eryx Mason was the scariest person, Mavis had ever met. Every time she caught his eyes, those cruel blue eyes that always spooked Mavis to the core, his tall frame who was always seemed to tower over everyone, his many tattoos that someone his age should not have, spread across his body in a terrifyingly beautiful way, as he always stood against his car before school, shamelessly smoking a cigarette. Yet Mavis was intrigued by him, He was so mysterious and had an aura to himself that drew her to him like a moth to a flame. Unknownst to her the moment, he bumped into her and actually focused his eyes on her, she drew him in, the first thing he noticed was her fro, and how she was the only black girl in school, who wore her natural hair out and it intrigued him.
