Chasing Between the Lines

Isabella Hayes has three rules for protecting her heart:
Stick to books.
Avoid trouble.
And never, ever fall for a boy like Asher Cole.
Then he walks into her life and breaks all three.
Asher is reckless, arrogant, dangerously charming-and usually found speeding through the city on a black sport bike like he has nothing to lose. He's the kind of boy Bella only likes when he's fictional.
In real life?
He's a disaster waiting to happen.
So when Asher suddenly takes an interest in the quiet girl who spends more time in bookstores than at parties, Bella knows better than to trust him.
There's just one problem.
He won't leave her alone.
He challenges her. Teases her. Pushes every button she has. And somehow, before Bella realises what's happening, I can't stand you turns into don't look at me like that, and staying away from Asher becomes impossible.
Especially when he convinces her to climb onto the back of his bike.
One ride changes everything.
Now Bella is sneaking out for midnight adventures, discovering what Asher's smile looks like when nobody else is watching, and wondering whether the safest life is really the one she wants.
And Asher?
He's breaking the only rule he's ever lived by.
Never stay long enough to care.
But their relationship has one devastating problem.
Asher is lying to her.
Because the night they met wasn't a coincidence.
He knew exactly who Isabella Hayes was.
He had a reason for finding her.
A reason for getting close.
And somewhere along the way, the girl who was supposed to be part of his plan became the one person he couldn't walk away from.
Now the past is catching up with them, Bella is getting dangerously close to the truth, and Asher is running out of time to confess everything.
Because once she discovers why he really entered her life, losing her won't be a possibility.
It'll be a promise.
She thought the dangerous part was getting on his bike.
She was wrong
