"And much to Grayson's surprise, he felt it-a pull. The kind that made his chest tighten and his thoughts scatter. He didn't like it. He didn't want to feel anything for her. But every time she smiled, every time she spoke with that damn optimism, something in him shifted. It irritated him. It frustrated him. But it was there, and he couldn't shake it."

Lila Calloway had heard all about Avery Grambs, the mystery girl who had inherited everything from billionaire Tobias Hawthorne, but when a letter shows up at her house weeks after the news first broke, she's shocked to find herself named in Tobias's will. The envelope is simple, unmarked, and cryptic, and though she has no idea why she's been included, the letter makes one thing clear: she's about to be dragged into a world of wealth, secrets, and games she never signed up for.

Arriving at Hawthorne House, Lila is met with suspicion, cold stares, and a family full of questions. But it's Grayson Hawthorne-the brooding, distant eldest son-who catches her off guard. He's everything she isn't: guarded, serious, and relentlessly smart. And though Lila tries to stay out of his way, there's something about him, something in the way his eyes follow her every move, that pulls her in. The only problem? He doesn't want her here. And the more he pushes her away, the harder it becomes for Lila to ignore the tension between them.

I dont own the inheritance games and the characters they all belong to Jennifer Lynn Barnes (except for Lila).
