Scarlet McKinnon has never been one to get into trouble. She's nice to everyone, has a picture-perfect family, and only one potential enemy.
So, when said enemy finds her beaten up on the side of the school building in the middle of Winter, Hayden Mathews is pretty damn surprised.
When the worst liar in history refuses to tell Hayden who did this to her, he makes it his mission to find out what's happening and put a stop to it - whether Scarlet agrees or not. With Scarlet hiding a secret Hayden's determined to uncover, it gets pretty difficult for the two enemies to avoid each other.
Especially when they have a childhood history that may end up more than just history.

𝐃𝐫𝐚𝐠 𝐌𝐞 𝐃𝐨𝐰𝐧 (𝒏𝒆𝒘 𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏)
Coming back was easy... but Hayden Walker? Now, that was the tricky part. Everything Arielle left behind two years ago still there: her home, her school, her friends, even her ex... But a new bad boy is something she didn't expect to have to deal with. ******************** I held his gaze, returning it with the same intensity. "You will not challenge me again." he drew each word slowly, almost hissing and we were so close that they caressed my neck and made my skin crawl. "And from now on you will listen to me. Do I make myself clear?" "Screw you, Walker." I pushed his chest again, recovering part of my personal space. " You think you scare me? You are nothing but a bully. I've dealt with kids like you all my life. So you're not going to impress me with your threats." He froze me with a dark half smile. "Oh, but I don't threaten, sweetheart. I just give warnings."
