Reece Wilson and Cara Simmons have history.
Bad History. The type no one wants.

All Cara ever wanted was for him to be out of her life.He caused her too much pain and brought out the worst side of her.  No matter how much they try to run from each other, they are bound together by their childhood best friends who happen to be madly in love but even that is not enough for them to settle their differences. One evening, they both get a call that changes their lives.


Both her child hood best friend and her husband were killed in a drunk driver accident. But what about their children? Will that be enough for Cara and Reece to work through their problems and make it work? 

He pinned me against the wall,"You can't avoid me forever" Reece whispered, the low hum of his voice, started to create a familiar burn. As if sensing his effect on me, his lips turned upwards grazing the shell of my ear. 
Somehow despite my wild heart and shaky breaths, I still managed to sound firm,"Don't underestimate me Wilson" I took a step back, but held my chin high, meeting his stormy orbs that burned with intensity and swirled with excitement.
"Don't give me a reason to" the simple answer made me flare with anger. If there was one thing I hated it was when Reece Wilson made me feel inferior and by the way he stares at me, defiantly, almost smirking at my expense, I knew he knew it too. We were fire and ice.

"I love you god knows I do but I can't do this. I can't. I put up with the phone calls, the text messages, social media, random chicks, not coming home, and everything else. Let alone a baby you conceived by some random chick. I'd be a fool to marry you. I'm sorry but it's time I loved me more than you" I looked at him once more as a tear slid down his face as he stood there lost for words. I looked at our family and friends, hiked up my dress, and walked down the aisle. "Sorry guys! Enjoy the reception and the trip.

15 parts Ongoing Mature
"Do you hate me, Travis?" I whisper, so quietly that it's almost completely inaudible, with a voice so full of suppressed emotion that it slightly cracks. "Yes," he whispers back, so breathless and honestly that it makes my heart drop. I open my mouth to speak, unsure of what I was even going to say. But, before I can, he grabs the back of my neck, and smashes our lips together. ------------------------- Travis Hart has never considered himself an angry person, but something about Jonah Davids lit a spark in him. And before you get the wrong idea, that was not a good thing. Jonah Davids was Travis' annoying next door neighbor, aka, his little sister's best friend since childhood, aka, his little sister's biggest crush. Oh, and on top of that, his lifelong, sworn enemy due to a ten second, miscommunication that happened when they were only eight years old. Ever since then, Travis has spent ten years hating Jonah Davids. But, when Jonah has to move in with the Hart family for the summer due to family reasons, will that change? Tension builds throughout the Hart family's household as the two get closer, swearing to each other that it's only temporary. But the thing is, there is a fine line between enemies and lovers; but the one thing they both have in common, is that neither of these groups can get each other out of their heads.
