Love is a scorching trail she's afraid to follow...
***
Star Matthews knows what she wants in life: everything that her current one isn't.
She made tough decisions to get to where she is now and the last thing she wants is the beautiful complication that is Julian Wilde, Prescott University's most notorious playboy who just happened to be proving his reputation to her roommate when Star first met him.
Thrown together every day in close proximity, Star fights her distracting attraction to Julian who insists that there's more to her than what she shows the world, and that he wants it, all of it, the good, the bad, the beautiful and the broken.
When her sins come to light, proving she is no bright star after all, will Julian stand by her side or will he walk away before she can burn him heart and soul?

The Reluctant Romantics
He was her first love and 'never'... She will be his last and 'forever'. *** Tessa Maxfield has always been the smart one because she couldn't be the pretty one or the cool one. And she's fine with that. The upside of being smart is not making stupid decisions like she did as a kid, falling in love with her older brother's best friend. She outgrew that and could still outsmart it now. Jake Hastings has always been a playboy because he could be so why not? But his best friend's rash wedding and fairytale marriage has left him wondering if he could have more. The downside to his notorious reputation is that when he unexpectedly finds the girl he can't live without, she won't believe him. He burned that bridge a long time ago and she's not letting him build a new one now. Can two people who want so much of what they're afraid of find their way through first loves and second chances to finally find each other? *** This is a spin-off from The Mischievous Mrs. Maxfield. It can be read standalone but I would highly recommend reading the original book first before this one for a lot more context and extra scenes. *** Copyright © 2016 by Nina Tippett.
