"I'm about to be the worst habit you've ever had, duchess." ♕ ♕ ♕ Katherine Morrison expected to spend the summer before her senior year in Bali, not Flagler Beach, Florida. That's where she meets nineteen-year-old Lukas Oliver, another unexpected change. She literally bumps into him at the car wash he's working at, but she knows she'll never see him again. That is until she punches his best friend in the face at a party. Lukas Oliver is trouble with pretty blue eyes and tattoos. All he has in life is his dad, his twelve-year-old sister, and his art. During the week, he's working at a local car wash to help pay for his dad's medical bills and college in the fall, but on the days he's free, all bets are off. None of his plans included Katherine. When things between Katherine and Lukas take a heated turn, they make an agreement. Nothing happens beyond the three months of summer. No contact, no attachments, and nothing exclusive. But holding on seems to be more difficult than letting go. What happens in Florida, stays in Florida. *** This story contains explicit language, sexual content, and A LOT of romance. I'm taking the whole good girl/bad boy to a new level. ;)…

Oh, and he's crushing on the girl in apartment 2F. Tyler and Maggie's first meeting was on top of the list of things that went better than expected. Their next meeting doesn't even make that list.

(Book 1) "What exactly did you do to get kicked out of your last school?" I felt my chest tighten when the vicious smirk played across Noah's lips.

(Book 2) *Contains spoilers below* "I needed more closure than what you gave me." I half lied. "It feels like an open wound someone keeps pouring salt on."His expression remained hard and cold. Almost distant. "I don't know what you want from me, Willow. You coming here isn't closing any wounds, it's just opening up old ones."I let out a sigh and rubbed my hands over my face. "I just needed to see you, okay? It's a relief to know you're even alive right now." I was begging myself not to cry.Noah shifted a little and folded his arms against his chest. "I don't know what you want me to say." "Anything is better than nothing." I said as I took a step closer. "I missed you. A lot."He peeked from under the mess of curls falling over his eyes. "You want me to tell you I missed you too? Is that what you're doing here?"I clenched my jaw shut and curled my fingers into fists at my sides. "I don't want anything from you." Scott isn't gone...yet. But he still refuses to let Noah go without harming anyone Noah cares about. It's been nine months since Scott took Noah under his wing and moved away from California.

With Scott still lingering and Noah's new found attitude, there's bound to be a little trouble. Way more than Willow bargained for. And maybe, just maybe, Scott isn't the real enemy.…
