Tara Kingston's been talking to a guy named no_clue online for quite awhile and they maintain a good friendship. They THINK they're complete strangers to each other. but they might be closer than they think. How close? Let's just say that they're neighbours. Andrew Clark, a bastard/enemy next door to Tara, is ironically her childhood friend since their parents are extremely good buds. He has to spend the summer all by himself thanks to her(not really her fault). Fortunately, he has an online bud to talk with. ...You see how this will end up already, huh? It'll end tragically. Very.

...it's easier. ...it's safer. ...it's often not hate at all. *full available on Amazon. Free in KU.* The Granger and Drake families have been through everything together; the suicide of the eldest Granger son, the Drake patriarch's cancer diagnosis, family holidays with only slight maiming, and more dance recitals than anyone would care to remember. Leilani Granger can't stand the person Casper Drake has become, and Casper doesn't even recognise his best mate's little sister anymore. Loving each other is second-nature, but they don't know how not to hate each other either. As they face losing Leilani's only remaining brother and Casper's best mate to his inner demons, old habits lead them back to each other for comfort. But, after one night of a deeper connection than either of them were ready for, the lines between the emotional and the physical start to blur. Leilani wasn't the kind to lose herself in meaningless sex. Casper's been doing it for years. It's the only time they can forget the storm clouds in their lives. It's the only time they can remember the sunshine. It's the only time hate doesn't get in the way. But, the trouble with hate is...it's often not hate at all. NB: Contains mature content.
