Inheritance of Desire

Book 1 of Inheritance Series

Banks Mitchell has had a plan since she was sixteen

Play soccer at UNC, follow in her mother's footsteps, and love Noah Martinez the way she always has steady, certain, safe

What she didn't plan for was Ivy

Ivy Martinez has spent four years filing away the memory of one kiss that was never meant to mean anything. Banks called it practice. Ivy called it the moment she understood exactly how much trouble she was in. She watched Banks fall for her little brother anyway and told herself that was fine

That she was fine

She almost believed it

They've been best friends their whole lives. Grew up in the same circle, at the same beach house every summer, around the same kitchen tables and their mothers best friends long before either of them took their first breath. Banks and Ivy were unavoidable in every aspect except the one that mattered most

Now they're roommates

Same apartment. Same walls. Same 2am silences that stretch just a little too long. Ivy knows every version of Banks Mitchell the girl who laughs too loud, cries at Disney movies and will look you dead in the eye and deny it, and has never once in her life slowed down long enough to feel something she wasn't ready for

The problem is Banks is starting to feel something she is very much not ready for

Noah is 30 minutes away, finishing his senior year, and texting every night like clockwork. Riley Mitchell is coaching right across campus and already sees too much. And Ivy is right there wild and warm and familiar pretending she isn't waiting for something Banks doesn't even know she's capable of giving

One kiss was practice

This is something else entirely
