aaron alex bad badboy boy choices dark harm humor jackson make past romance scars self summer summerromance

Alexis Greene has walls. So many that she's lost track of the ones she put up by choice and the ones that built themselves based upon instinct. These walls were built to mask her past and keep everyone at a distance; even those closest to her. She refused to fully bare her scars to anyone, because being open meant vulnerability. And vulnerability meant allowing herself to be hurt again. 

These walls were built to be unbreakable. 

Until she meets Jackson Walters on a summer trip with her friends. Jackson is definitely not what she expected to find in this tiny vacation town. Walters is a boy with a track record for breaking hearts-and the law-without a shred of remorse. Trails of tears and tickets are left in his wake, and Alex refuses to let a guy like that knock down her barriers. This bad boy has plenty of walls of his own, though; and scars running deeper than anything she's ever dealt with. Jackson is bad news, and Alex knew from the start. 

So why can't she keep away from him?All Rights Reserved

Finding You by dani_alyse

"He rests his forehead on mine and closes his eyes. Instantly, my own eyes flutter shut. I can feel his lips so very near to my own. 'Mia..," he says, almost like a whisper, 'I'm not him.' I gasp as his lips almost brush mine. 'Please... I need you to try and trust me.' If only he knew what he was asking of me." *** Mia Valiente is a girl who's spent her entire life trying not to be noticed. Her goal for the rest of junior year is to keep her head down, survive Track & Field season, and avoid her ex-boyfriend, Sean, as much as possible. It's been a year since she decided she loved Sean. It's been a few months since he broke her heart. It's been a week since he came back to stomp on the pieces. She feels like she's completely lost who she is. She doesn't know if she'll ever be that person again. Until she meets Hunter Scott. And all that begins to change. Hunter is tall, charming, and confident, with an edge that makes his kindness all the more surprising. Not to mention, gorgeous as hell. He's the kind of guy who knows exactly what he wants. So why does it seem like all he wants is Mia? Maybe Hunter is a little lost too, and maybe through finding each other, they'll find themselves. ******* HIGHEST RANKINGS: #1 IN DRAMA, #15 IN ROMANCE, #1 IN QUOTES

Something There by maddyxmarie

'"Can you spread your legs a little farther for me, baby?" he asks me, his voice a low whisper. I nod, doing exactly as I'm told, and he bites down on his lower lip. "Good girl," he breathes, and those two words alone do the most wicked things to me. His fingers trail even farther north until he reaches the hem of my underwear. His eyes meet mine and I have to let out a shaky breath, holding on tight to him to keep myself stable. "Yes or no?" he asks me quietly, and I nod frantically.' 🌸🌸🌸 Lexi Brooks' love life was suddenly flipped upside down when she was kissed by Bryce Bradshaw the day before he mysteriously moved away. It left her heart in a twist, until her mind was trapped elsewhere when 'The Incident' occurred; quite possibly the hardest thing she'd ever go through. But Bryce always had it easy. He was the heartthrob, the bad boy, the perfect guy. He had the looks, the talent, and the charisma. Though to Lexi's surprise, on the rare occasion she could catch him out of the spotlight, she saw something else there. She could tell that he was a little distant. He could tell that she was a little different. The only crucial detail: He simply left without a word. 🌸🌸🌸 Highest Rankings: #1 in Drama #1 in Heartbreak #1 in YA 🌸🌸🌸 'Something There' Book #1
