After reaching a fiery boiling point that leaves their trust in ruins, spitfire Summer Westley and arrogant Ashton Banks are far from kissing and making up. But fresh scars and a bitter dose of consequences can't stop the relentless craving for one another no matter how much damage has been done. As they wrestle with the high emotions and unresolved tension simmering between them, Summer and Ashton find themselves wondering whether the lingering aftertaste of each other is strong enough to keep their future together alive - or if they were always fated to crash and burn.

That's a risk she's no longer willing to take. Then he showed up. The school's golden boy. Charming, cocky, and effortlessly popular. Captain of the basketball team and a certified heartbreaker. But beneath the swagger, he's haunted too. When he first spots her sitting alone at one of his games, something about her lodges in his mind and refuses to leave.

But she's not looking to be saved-and definitely not by a boy like him. Can he break down the walls she's built? Or will she push him away like everyone else? Would she fall for him... or would she lose him too? Find out in this heart-wrenching, slow-burn romance about healing, heartbreak, and the terrifying beauty of second chances. ---

Hopelessly Devoted
"Never call a girl a bitch," I glared into his eyes as he opened them, piercing into me, the bright blue drink I had just poured over him still dripping from his dark hair. "Or she just might act like one." I gave him one last sarcastic smile before pushing by him and walking away, practically strutting. Well, this year will be fun... β’ β’ β’ β’ Crystal Summers; a self-proclaimed expert in all things sarcastic and the human embodiment of destructive decisions. Trying to get away from her troubled past, she moves with her mom to California to start a new life, and potentially not screw this one up. There, she quickly meets Scarlett and Savanah, her new-found partners in crime, and her life finally begins to feel normal again for the first time in years. But she just so happens to also collide with the school's sexy, notorious jackass, Ashton Monroe.. and his pack of asswipes. She loathes him, and the feeling is mutual. But as the poets say, the line separating love and hate is a very thin one. And often times, when two people hate each other, it can grow into much more.
