Tear (The Seaside #1) - Rachel van Dyken
Life as a teenager is never easy. But for Natalee Murray, things have just gotten way more difficult. Bored with life, she can't wait to graduate high school and get out of town, especially considering the famous band members from AD2 suddenly start attending her school, making her once boring life, absolutely insane.
It starts with a pen. A single brush of fingers, and
she is captivated.
But Alec and Demetri have a dark secret, one that
could shatter their reputations and Natalee's heart. What do you do when one
guy paints your life with color while the other infuses your soul with passion?
How do you choose when
your heart is divided?
One kiss could have changed Abby's
life, but when it didn't happen, she ran. Jack was everything to her and when
he didn't respond, Abby couldn't bear it. Everything about that night--leaning
in close to his face, feeling the night breeze teasing her hair, the way his
scent filled her head--was burned vividly into her mind, including the moment
when Jack pulled away. There was no kiss. Abby was wrong. She was wrong about
him, wrong about them.
Maybe she didn't have to go to
college two thousand miles away, but she did. She had to forget about him. Abby
threw herself off the grid, disappearing completely from the life she knew.
After completing her undergraduate degree, she enrolled in seminary. All
contact with her old life was severed and she never looked back, until she was
forced to.
A fallen boxer.
A woman with a broken dream.
A competition…
He even makes me forget my name. One night was all it
took, and I forgot everything and anything except the sexy fighter in the ring
who sets my mind ablaze and my body on fire with wanting…
Remington Tate is the strongest, most confusing man I’ve
ever met in my life.
He’s the star of the dangerous underground fighting
circuit, and I’m drawn to him as I’ve never been drawn to anything in my life.
I forget who I am, what I want, with just one look from him. When he’s near, I
need to remind myself that I am strong–but he is stronger. And now it’s my job
to keep his body working like a perfect machine, his taut muscles primed and
ready to break the bones of his next opponents . . .
But the one he’s most threatening to, now, is me.
I want him. I want him without fear. Without
reservations.
If only
I knew for sure what it is that he wants from me?
Evan
Lennox is going nowhere fast. She's living with her grandparents after
her parents bailed on her, she got kicked out of her posh private school, her
ex-boyfriend proved to be the biggest sleaze imaginable, her former best friend
is a back-stabber, and her current best friend is stuck in backwoods NJ. To top
it all off, one teeny, tiny fire she lit to burn some memories of her ex goes a
little out of control and winds up igniting a good piece of a very powerful
family's pecan orchard. Evan lands her pampered behind in court and gets
sentenced to community service. Which she knows she deserves. But the hard
labor and humiliation may be her undoing.
Until she meets Winchester Youngblood on the site. Everything about him is tricky, confusing, not at all what it seems, and so sexy, Evan can't resist pulling closer. But every step she takes to get to know him gives her more of a reason to back up and put him as far out of life as she possibly can.
