Too dangerous to fall in love with. I’m new in town, and I’ve been warned about the Castleton Family. I’ve been warned about Drake. He’ll charm your pants off, girl. He’ll take you for a ride, leave you wanting more, and move on to the next girl. He’s a user. He’s just like his father. He’s a bully. I know all this. And I’m not a stupid girl. I don't fall for bad boys. But the minute Drake Castleton notices me, I’m a goner. Of course, I won't let him know that... *** All the girls in River Valley are the same. I’ve dated most of them. Used many of them. Pissed off my family with a few of them. The new girl isn’t what I’d call pretty. Mouse brown hair. Giant ridiculous eyes. Permanently-pouting lips… I want her the second I see her. The only problem is: she’s already been warned about me. But I’m the King of Castleton High, and I get what I want. One brat of a girl with a sharp tongue? Easy conquest. **contains consensual sex, underage drinking/smoking, and various scenes some readers might find inappropriate** Recommended for 17+, mature readers.

As her father pushes her to secure a marriage proposal from King’s mild-mannered brother in order to marry into the Culhane dynasty, Amelia assumes the mask of a demure young lady, always correct and obedient. It’s a posture that King holds in contempt. Yet when she reveals the true force of her feelings, she unleashes a smoldering passion that cannot be denied. And everything—propriety, filial duty, even love—will be scorched in the wake of such all-consuming desire.
