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?

[BOOK 1] What they have is messy, reckless, and impossible to walk away from🦋 ************* "I won't leave" I whisper, and he smiles, "I know, baby" he says softly, and my lips tug upwards into a smile. "You're the exception" he continued, his tone tender as he pressed a short, sweet kiss to my forehead. I didn't know it then, but I started falling in love with Finn Brookes, we were each other's exceptions. * * * Lily Garcia didn't come to university looking for love-especially not with someone like Finn Brooks. He's charming, infuriating, and a walking complication she doesn't need. But no matter how hard she tries to keep her distance, there's something about him that feels like gravity, pulling her closer with every encounter. Beneath his cocky exterior, she senses the fractures he tries to hide-the same ones she's been running from her entire life. Finn's been through hell, and love isn't part of the plan. He's good at keeping his walls high, locking out anyone who might get too close. But then Lily shows up, and suddenly his carefully controlled life begins to unravel. She's everything he didn't know he was missing, and that scares him more than he's willing to admit. But with their pasts threatening to destroy what they could be, and old friends trying to drive a wedge between them, trust becomes their biggest hurdle. And when a new love interest steps into the picture, everything Lily and Finn thought they were building starts to fall apart. Fighting their demons was never supposed to include each other, but now they have to decide if the risk of heartbreak is worth the reward of finally letting someone in.

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.

"We were complete opposites. Jackson's life before me consisted of him pushing away anyone who tried to get close, while I wore my heart on my sleeve." ---------------------------- Maggie Carpenter is a waitress at a high-end club in Arizona who loves nothing more than a quiet night cozying up with a good book. One fateful night she ends up serving Jackson Porter, a devastatingly handsome yet brooding British author, celebrating the National Book Awards nomination for his newest novel. It's an instant magnetic attraction for the two of them but there's just one problem, they're polar opposites. Due to his abnormal upbringing, Jackson's life before Maggie consisted of him pushing away anyone who tried to get close, while she was an open book who always wore her heart on her sleeve. He had tattoos, piercings, and cursed like a sailor, yet she was mild-mannered and did everything to please those around her. Both stubborn in their own ways, Maggie needs someone to show her how to live in the moment, yet Jack needs someone to keep him grounded. Jackson lives his life wild and free, while Maggie toils her life away living vicariously through the pages in her books. But the reality is, neither of them were really living until their stories collided.

There are no warning signs to keep you from getting too close to the edge. It's like a roller coaster, exhilarating and terrifying at the same time."
