My life changes when my friends force me into a bet, and then my path crosses with college bad boy Ryan Carter, and everything changes. Hi, I'm Ryan Drew Carter. Captain of my college football team.

When they challenge me, I can't stop myself from making that bet. A wrong bet can change your life and you as well.

"Fuck." He whispers into my neck, sending a thrill of excitement through my body. His lips still smothered kisses over my neck and his hands roamed my body, starting at my chest, going down to my stomach. Caressing my soft skin, his thumb trailed circles on my groin before slightly slipping into the waistband of my jeans. My breath catches in my throat as I pull at the hoodie that covered his chiselled body. Understanding, Jacob pulls it off in one swift movement before attaching his lips back on my neck. Sucking and biting it before flicking his tongue over the sore spot. A quiet moan leaves my mouth and I clasp my hand over it, denying any noise to escape.

***** Emma Pear knew she wasn't the most popular girl in high school. Her nose was usually buried in a textbook, and her grades were as spotless as her reputation for always following the rules. "Nerd" was a label she'd long since embraced. Her parents, determined to keep her on the straight and narrow, packed her schedule with violin lessons, shifts at the local animal shelter, and tutoring sessions for elementary school kids. Emma barely had time to breathe, let alone experience "normal" teenage rites of passage like parties, late-night hangouts, or even just goofing off with friends. So when the captain of the football team-the captain-unexpectedly asked her to the school dance, Emma saw a glimmer of a different life. She practically begged her parents, and to her shock, they actually said yes. She had no idea that one night, under the glittering lights of the gym, would rewrite her entire story. Blake Black was the kind of high school loner who radiated an almost magnetic quiet. Girls whispered about him in the halls, drawn to his mysterious aura and the fact that he rarely spoke to anyone. Most of his time was spent wrangling his hyper little brother, Alex. Their parents, a brain surgeon and a heart doctor, were perpetually busy, leaving little time for their growing boys. His parents made it clear attending the school dance wasn't optional. They just wanted him to "act like a normal high schooler" for a few hours. Blake's plan was simple: show his face, then ditch the minute he decently could. He brushed off a parade of hopeful girls, already counting down the minutes until he could escape. But then he saw what happened to Emma. And unlike everyone else, he couldn't just stand by and watch.

[18+] Sophia has to ignore her steamy chemistry with British popstar Teddy Stone in order to get revenge on him for upsetting her best friend. *** Pop sensation Teddy Stone has millions of devoted fans, a squeaky-clean reputation, and a craving for some normality in his fast-paced life. Travel blogger Sophia Palmer has a dwindling bank balance, a fear of crowds, and no interest in Teddy Stone's music. Nevertheless, when her best friend Becca-a self-proclaimed fangirl-scores VIP tickets to his concert, Sophia agrees to go with her. During a meet-and-greet with the popstar afterwards, he shows his true colours. With Becca heartbroken, the girls are ready to delete all existence of Teddy Stone from their lives... until he slides into Sophia's DMs. A plan is hatched: if Teddy wants to date Sophia, then she will play along, secretly gathering dirt to sell to the media to crush his immaculate image. An invitation to join his press tour around Europe provides a perfect excuse to get close to him through late-night chats in hotel rooms, cosy dinners, and dancing in exclusive clubs. But with sexual tension sizzling between the pair, loyalties are put to the test, and Sophia begins to suspect she's not the only one hiding a secret.
