Book IV of UNC Series

Carter Blake hates the world, but most importantly, the people that occupy it. He wants to insulate himself and only focus on getting through school and basketball. After suffering at the hands of his alcoholic mother, he wants nothing to do with her or her lies, but it seems like the universe has different plans for him because his past returns to collect on some long overdue debt.

Addison Kelton has always been known for being a bitch even before her best friend passed away, but now she has walls so high that nothing and no one can get through. She wants to be left alone to cover her invisible scars with ink. Nothing matters to her but her art and the future she promised her best friend she would have. Not her stepfather, her mother who's haunting her from the grave, or the past she's trying to forget but keeps coming back to check on her.

This story is about two broken people who hate people but are forced to live together in hopes that they overcome their hatred for the world.All Rights Reserved

Unfortunately, the poor choices of her past come back to bite her in the ass, placing her right in the crosshairs of the most dangerous man in the city, who is far too proud to admit Cassidy is the only girl who wouldn't be wrapped around his finger.
