"Something can be both delicate and violent" *** Harry lowers his eyes at me as he backs me up against the wall, the red lighting only making him look more menacing "You wanted the bad guy Abby? Wanted the villain?" My heart his running a hundred mile an hour when my breathing hitches in my throat as his hand comes up to wrap his long fingers tight around my jaw forcing me to look him in the eye.

[COMPLETED] Bentley Hale is the best street racer in the Bay Area, but everything changes when she becomes wrapped up with Harry Styles, the new official racer for the Oakland Kings gang. Bentley's got a wicked mind and the attitude to match, but so does Harry. Money, murder, family, love, gangs, drugs, sex, cars, California... what could possibly go wrong? ----------------------- this book contains violence, mature/dark themes, explicit sexual content including kink, and the use of profanity.

Hazel has spent years clawing her way back from one cruel setback after another, shaping her life into something so controlled it can't fall apart again. Every goal has a plan. Every risk has a rule. Getting into her dream university is supposed to be the clean start-the beginning of the career she's bled for. Then, on her first day, she breaks the very first rule. It starts with getting into that damn car. Damien Hunter is trouble in human form: sharp-tongued, arrogant, and irritatingly amused by the way he can make Hazel snap. She should hate him. She does hate him-right up until the bickering turns into charged silences, lingering looks, and the kind of longing that risks everything she's worked for. But Damien isn't just a distraction. He's a storm with something to hide. As Hazel is pulled deeper into his orbit, she starts noticing the cracks: the half-truths, the sudden disappearances, the way his story never quite matches the rumours. And the closer she gets, the more she realises Damien isn't running from university drama-he's running from something darker. Something that could destroy them both. Now Hazel has a choice: cling to the rules that kept her safe... or risk everything for a boy who might be lying about who he is. Because falling for Damien was the easy part. Surviving what he's hiding is another.
