how far would you go . . . for someone you love? ♔ Levi steps forward, placing himself between me and Jack. Like he's protecting me from him. But I don't need protecting, certainly not from Jack. "Who do you think you are, dude?" Levi spits, getting in Jack's face. "Look, Scarlett was just helping me out with a proj-" "I'm not your dude," Jack bites, and I want to tear my hair out of my head. This is going downhill very fast. Jack turns to me. "Scar, we need to talk," he says lowly. Then loud enough for Levi to hear, "So can you please get this kid to leave." "Hey, you don't get to come in here and start ordering her around," Levi says harshly. "You don't control her." "And you think that you do?" Jack spits. ♔ When Scarlett moved off to college, she hoped to start anew and find her way in this world alone. Two problems. One: her older brother goes to the same college, and it seems like he's everywhere, keeping her from doing everything she hoped to do as a college freshman. Two: her brother's devastatingly handsome best friend also seems hell-bent on ruining her college experience . . . but in a different way. Their paths keep crossing, and Scarlett is reminded of the powerful attraction that they've both ignored for far too long. Not to mention, a new face begins to occupy everyday Scarlett's thoughts. When Scarlett is paired with an allusive, darkly handsome stranger for a film project, her world begins to open in ways she never thought possible. But as his mystery unravels into dark secrets, she wonders if she's falling a bit too hard. Before long, Scarlett is forced to realize that balancing the hearts of two boys at once just might result in the breaking of her own.

Constance thought she could finally stop looking over her shoulder. She has a steady job as a hairstylist, rents a small apartment next door to her best friend, and keeps a routine that distracts her just enough to not have to dwell on her past. All seems right in her world until a homeless man who's on the FBI's Most Wanted list comes barreling through the salon, effectively ripping apart all the hard work she put into her life. Now she is forced to live as a fugitive from the law alongside the infuriating man who might just be the one to drag the skeletons out of her closet. Between her unresolved past and his unsure future, Constance works to clear his name so she can go back to living inconspicuously before the FBI catches them, or worse before the Mafia catches her. *** Luca didn't want to get attached. He had learned the hard way that people are innately bad and nobody really cares about you; his situation is a prime example of that. However, when a bossy woman shows kindness for no other reason than she wants to, he can't help but return to her house to save her from the goons following his trail and suddenly finds himself responsible for a woman with a past as mysterious as his future. With his new traveling companion having the appetite of a bear and an inability to be quiet, he soon learns that Constance is hard to keep at arm's length. While desperately trying to prove his innocence, Luca gets unexpectedly wrapped up in the strange, caring, trouble-making girl who just might be the key for him to get his life back. *** Highest Ranking: #1 Scissors #6 FBIagent #9 FBI #10 OnTheRun
