At the beginning, they were strangers. Though that is how all great relationships have to begin at somepoint.
Sixteen year old Marine Gallagher was lonely, depressed and bored out of her mind with her life. That is, until the handsome and mysterious Nick Dawson wiggled his way into her life, turning everything upside down and backwards. She knows that dating someone like Nick will bring nothing but trouble, but nothing can stop a girl in love...
Nick Dawson is misunderstood. All throughout his years people thought he was a bad guy, or a player, even. All he needs is to fill the empty hole inside him... the hole where his family used to be... and he thinks Marine can do it.
You know what they say, opposites attract.

I am totally addicted!" - ARC reviewer SUMMARY: Eila Walker knows luck is not a friend, so she is downright shocked to inherit a million-dollar Cape Cod home. And yeah, her new town isn't perfect: the cheerleaders are heinous clones, the local undertow can kill ya, and her Great Grams was supposedly fried by lightning in the harbor square. Still, Eila is hopeful her luckless days are in the past . . . until history decides to repeat itself. When Raef O'Reilly becomes her friendly, yet weirdly protective shadow, Eila thinks life is pretty darn perfect - until she is hauled beneath the waves by an unnatural undertow. Revealing coal-black eyes and iron-like strength as he rescues her, Raef can no longer hide what he is . . . or what she can do. Eila, last of her kind, can supposedly channel the power of human souls, while Raef is more adept at stealing them. Even worse, the legend about her ancestor isn't such a myth, since Eila's grandmother was one kick-butt warrior until her lightning-like power backfired. A power that is written all over Eila's DNA. Determined to stay one step ahead of a dangerous clan that is hunting her, Raef, along with three unlikely allies, will do all they can to protect her. But as hidden pieces of their brutal histories unravel, Eila begins to understand just what went down in the harbor square. She soon realizes that following in her grandmother's fearless footsteps may be the only way to save those she loves . . . including Raef.Complete
