Katelynn Reyes has never liked confrontation. All throughout high school, she was a wallflower, a person who avoided people and the drama that surrounded them.
Jayson Tate has always been popular. In high school, he was the boy every girl wanted, the bad boy with a secret, a person who bathed in the attention of his peers.
What people didn't see, was behind all the disguises there was a beautiful friendship. Right from 10th grade, when Katelynn moved to Edmonton from Tillson, Ontario, the two of them were inseparable. And as to be expected from such a close friendship, love grew on both ends. When the two teens turned 17, despite the fact that they were only in 11th grade, they moved in together, making all their secrets harder to hide.
Activities after dark can be hidden up to a certain point, but not when the two secrets collide.
Katelynn moonlights as an outlaw under the name of Hermes, and Jayson, a hero under the name of The Red Knight. When the two meet, disaster is sure to strike. How long can two roommates hide their nightly activities? And how long can they hide their feelings?

"What is your name?" I asked, staring into her doe-like eyes. Almost immediately her face twisted in horror. Her eyes switched back and forth frantically like an exit would suddenly appear out of thin air. The sides of her lips turned downward like it was taking everything in her not to burst into a sob. Sure, she was scared--that much was expected-- but I could see the anger. I could see she was furious with me. Interesting. I thought to myself.

I let her name roll over my tongue for a while. Every second that passed made my vision go black with anger. I looked away from her face before releasing the hold I had on her.

But one night something happens which finally pushes him over the edge, and as a result, he leaves his house the next morning with two things: his mother's gun and a plan.

He harbored a hatred toward his parents, and that hatred extended to almost everyone and everything around him, producing a very troubled and damaged young kid. As Jay enters high school, he becomes very intrigued with one of his classmates. Kind of obsessed, actually. Her name: Mikayla Keeler. Mikayla is very unique, and like Jay, she doesn't seem to fit in with her contemporaries. Instead, the two of them keep each other company, and their friendship very quickly escalates into a romantic and intimate relationship. Despite having Mikayla, Jay's troubles continue to burden him. He and Mikayla are fighting habitually, his home life is still unbearable, and his time at school is hardly any better, made worse by a bully named Calvin.

His Forbidden Angel
{Book 1 of Deception series} "That's seriously what you think?" She asks in bewilderment. I scoff, "No its what I know. I watched it with my own two eyes Ashlynn." She chuckles sarcastically at my condescending tone. With a look of defiance in her eyes she leans forward so that her lips brush my own as she speaks, "I was right outside in the stairwell the entire time. I never left. I watched the end of the fight and then I went upstairs and had a drink with Emmaline. Margo left with the guys. I've been here this entire time." I clench my jaw and close my eyes. She has been exposed to the darkest parts of me over the years. Why didn't she run when she had the chance? She won't get another one; I won't let her leave now. "Look at me Jax." I blink my eyes open to find unshed tears in her own. "You are not your father," the conviction in her voice sends relief through me. I release her wrists but keep her caged against the lockers. Her newly freed arms wrap themselves around my neck and pull me so that my forehead rests against hers. Her body is pinned between mine and the locker which means I can feel every enticing inch of her. "I won't leave you; and I won't let your demons consume you." Her eyes stay closed during that statement only to open again with amusement dancing in them. Breathlessly she says, "But if you don't kiss me in the next two seconds I'm going to combust." My body hums in anticipation. This girl is going to be the death of me. +++ Ashlynn conceals her trauma behind a facade of perfection. Never a hair out of place, makeup to cover the bruises, outfits to hide the scars- all because she's afraid to appear weak. Jaxon chooses to embrace the trauma to fuel his anger. He uses fighting as a release. He is who he is and he's unapologetic about it. He can see the pain behind the illusion she creates. She looks past his anger to the complex emotions underneath. Will they be each other's salvation? Or will they choose to continue coping alone?
