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)

Elsie Lark is a walking paradox. A marine biology student that suffers from severe aquaphobia. Despite her near-crippling fear, she's determined to follow in the footsteps of her late father, a famous marine explorer. Trying out exposure therapy, Elsie starts visiting her college pool. But, just when she makes progress... she slips, hits her head on the side of the pool, and goes under. Elsie is certain this is the end of the line for her. Until a pair of strong, steady arms, and painfully soft lips bring her back from the darkness. The only thing Ethan Monroe cares about is qualifying for the 2024 Olympics in Paris. He's more at home in the pool than on solid ground. And despite being almost a celebrity on campus, he avoids people, preferring the silence of water over a crowd. Imagine his surprise, though, when his usually peaceful training session turns into a rescue mission once he finds a girl drowning in his pool. After resuscitating her, Ethan thinks the girl will thank him and be on her way. What he doesn't expect is for her to follow him around like a puppy, begging him to help her get over her fear of water. With training and family pressure, Ethan doesn't have time for anything else. But Elsie's infectious, bubbly determination - and promise to tutor him in Marine Zoology - cracks his resolve and he accepts. However, the sizzling attraction between them might be a bigger problem than he expected... and change them both in ways neither of them is prepared for. __________________________________________________________ TROPE YOU CAN EXPECT: grumpy/sunshine & "he hates everyone but her"
