Bella Pierce has always been a hopeless romantic. Obsessed with cheesy romance novels and Hallmark movies, she's always yearned for that special connection that everyone seems to find so easily.
Lincoln Montgomery is Bella's neighbor and worst enemy. His stupid smirk, charming mannerisms, and need to be the funniest person in the room has always rubbed Bella the wrong way.
Ever since the first grade when Lincoln moved in next door to Bella, it's been constant banter and bickering. Poking comments and non-stop insults, they really do seem to hate each other. They simply aren't compatible. But maybe one day...
This compelling story takes you on the journey of Lincoln and Bella, two rivals who may find out they have more interest in each other than they ever could have imagined.

Crimson Heat
Luna Cross doesn't do chaos. She keeps her secrets buried, her walls high, and her enemies at arm's length-especially the arrogant, reckless golden boy of West Ridge High, Lucas Hale.

But when a school prank gone wrong lands them in detention together for five excruciating days, Luna is forced to face the fire-and him-head-on. Lucas Hale thrives on chaos. Flirting with danger (and girls), pushing boundaries, and lighting matches just to see what burns-he's used to getting what he wants. And what he wants now is Luna Cross: her fury, her fire, her attention. Even if it means getting under her skin in all the wrong-or right-ways. But Luna isn't the only one hiding something. As the tension between them ignites into something electric, secrets unravel, loyalties shift, and lines blur. What starts as hate simmers into heat, and suddenly the girl who swore she'd never let anyone in finds herself falling for the one person who could burn her whole world down. Love and war share a heartbeat. And sometimes, your worst enemy is the only one who truly sees you.Complete
