Kara was used to her big brother's protection, used to her sheltered ways, but when Alec leaves home at nineteen, when she was fourteen, to live with a few friends down in Florida, she's left to herself to get through life. But two years later, Kara's experienced, no longer the naive little girl she was, all thanks to Alec's ex-best friend Kevin. When their two-year relationship goes from smooth-going to abuse-ridden in the snort of a line, she tries her hardest to jump out of the hookup by "dumping" Kevin and moving to Florida to live with her twenty-one year old brother for the summer...but Kara has a way of attracting trouble, and Alec's extremely hot roommate Jeremy is everything she wanted to get away from and maybe even more. She's determined to not get close to any guy again, but this cocky, pigheaded, insanely sexy jerk won't give up on pursuing her. She won't give in, nope, nada, never...Sucks for him.
