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.

Sarah Campbell has everything she's ever wanted. She worked day and in and day out for her acceptance to her dream school, Vanderbilt University. And now that she's got it she can't wait to finally let loose. She never was the goodie-two-shoes her parents thought she was, but with a new start here at Vandy, she's really ready to make a name for herself. Except she already has one. Sarah Campbell, Peer Mentor. Sarah's been volunteering as a peer mentor at Vanderbilt since she was in high school, so it's no shock to her when her boss asks her to take on the hardest case of the semester. Cue Adam Watson. Adam Watson is ready to move out and move on. With a past riddled with mistakes, he's ready to create a new future for himself. The only problem? Vanderbilt isn't so forgiving. He's handed his acceptance and football scholarship with one condition, that he meets with a peer mentor once a week. After a serious warning from the head coach, and threats of being kicked off the team, Adam realizes that the only way he's going to keep his starting position is by actually attending these meetings once a week. Even if it's not by choice. Sarah Campbell and Adam Watson's worlds collide in a unique set of circumstances, and neither one of them are necessarily thrilled about it. But as Sarah begins to spend more time with Adam, she realizes that there's more to him than what meets the eye. And maybe, just maybe, there's a piece of him worth saving. *Trigger Warning: This book deals with issues such as Alcoholism & Bulimia. -Updates: once a week -Cover created by: TinHoverCarlnIce
