Shattered & Yours
Violet Hayes never expected her senior year to start with loss. Losing her mother to cancer was heartbreaking, but being sent away to London by a father who couldn't bear to look at her? That was something else entirely. Thrown into the home of her father's best friend, she finds herself living with the Montgomery brothers-Theo, the easygoing and protective one, and Mason, the arrogant, brooding, gorgeous one who makes it painfully clear that he wants nothing to do with her. Mason Montgomery has everything-looks, money, power. But beneath the smirks and confidence, he's spent years battling demons he refuses to name. When Violet walks into his life, soft-spoken yet undeniably strong, she's just another rich American girl-or so he thinks. He's determined to push her away, but she sees right through him. And the more he tries to fight it, the more he finds himself breaking all his own rules. What starts as heated arguments and endless teasing quickly turns into something neither of them can ignore. But just as Violet begins to feel like she belongs somewhere, Mason's world unravels-his mother's dark past comes back to haunt him, his rage spirals out of control, and the walls he built so high start to crumble. When a dangerous encounter at a party pushes them to their true breaking point, Mason is forced to face what he's known all along-Violet isn't just another girl. She's the one person who sees him. And he'll do anything to keep her safe, even if it means fighting against everything he's ever believed. Love was never supposed to be in the equation. But sometimes, the people who are the most broken are the ones worth fighting for the most.Complete

Because if he wants to act like an asshole, she's not afraid to match the energy. What starts as petty revenge turns into tension, banter, and something neither of them is ready for.
