Arthur "Art"
The moment I die, I'm going straight to hell, and that's exactly where I belong.
When I was fifteen, the course of my life changed-one second was all it took.
The truth about what happened that summer night is driving me to the brink of insanity.
I'm an ex-drug addict and suicide survivor who's been deemed a lost cause. No one can control me.
I don't give a damn about anything-until I meet her.
She's a "Cin" worth committing.
Cinnamon "Cin"
I have a life most would envy-a track star with a full scholarship lined up after I graduate high school.
My boyfriend and I are looking forward to our future together. I'm content-until I meet him.
He's dangerous, damaged, and I know it's best to keep my distance, but damn I'm drawn to him.
Art is a beautiful disaster, tearing my carefully laid plans apart, causing havoc.
Little did I know my choice would set in motion the destruction of my perfect world.
The consequences will be catastrophic once the dust settles.

Between Us (all of us #1)
I wanted her the first moment I saw her. I was only eight, but my heart's been set on her ever since. I don't know what to call my fixation on her, I don't know if it's just lust. I don't know if it's pure infatuation, or even love. But whatever it is, it's strong. It's unconditional...it's unrefined...but it's unrequited... It's unlawful. And still, no one could convince me that she isn't the one. She is the one. She's the only one. I wanted Aubree. I had to have her, but I had to wait. There's always been a wedge between us. A thick line that's never meant to be crossed. But sometime after my eighteenth birthday I took the first step over it. Nothing between us now-except for the guilt over seducing my best friend's mom. *This book contains some taboo elements, sex, and strong language and is intended for mature readers*Complete

Teressa, being ignorant to everything, dived into a world that took her back to the darkest part of her life. A life that kept following her from the past, along with the twin brothers.
