Roman Valdez has other plans. Star receiver. King of the school. The Devil in cleats. From day one, it's his mission to ruin me. Except something about his actions doesn't add up.

One night was all it was supposed to be. No names, no numbers, no strings. I didn't expect to ever see him again—or for that night to leave me with a permanent reminder. But life has a funny way of ruining plans. Now, I'm back in Sun Valley, face-to-face with Emilio Chavez, the Devil who once made me forget all the rules. He's furious I disappeared without a word, and he's made it his mission to make me pay. It's only a matter of time before he uncovers my biggest secret. When he does, it could ruin everything.

Evan Shaw has wanted to be a photographer for as long as he can remember, and Pine Valley is the place to go to make that happen. What he didn't expect was to be sworn into a secret society with a dark history—or to fall in love with a man so filled with anger there might never be hope for them. Alek Anders doesn't believe in love, nor does he have the time for it. He can't chase his dreams like all the rich college kids around him; he has his family to look after and food to keep on the table. Then comes Evan. Everything he's not, he pushes all of Alek's buttons.

Pine Valley is a school rich in both history and legacy, and it's once more opening its doors to another year of students. Laila "Lally" Stewart is drowning her grief for her deceased best friend the only way she knows how—by partying, isolating herself, and leaving her friends behind—until her school notices her debauchery and gives her one last chance to prove she is worthy of its hallowed halls. Only, it comes with a price tag she can't pay, at least not until she finds herself involved in a game called Risk, where the stakes are high, but the payout is higher.

Pine Valley is a school that's both rich in history and legacy, and it's once more opening its doors to another year of students. Skylar Warren owns the streets of Pine Valley and everybody in it. From cars to people, there is nothing he wants that he can't get—until now. When he is offered a chance to race for the prestigious StarFire racing, Skylar realizes there are two things he wants more than anything else in this world—the championship title and Silas Townsend—and he plans to get both, whatever it takes. Silas "Bones" Townsend has the perfect life—or so everyone thinks.

A notorious flirt. A serial anti-monogamist. Wild, carefree, and very, very loud. Luna has one rule in life: don't get attached. Until she meets Jackson. The nice guy on campus. People-pleaser to his core. Reluctant thrower of kick-ass parties. Quiet, unassuming, and content to live his life firmly out of the spotlight.

Sticks and stones may break our bones…Hockey is my life. After Wren Davis puts my dreams of the NHL in jeopardy, I vow to make her life hell if she ever comes near me again. But she’s my best friend’s foster sister, and even though they don’t live together anymore, their bond is still tight, which makes avoiding each other extra difficult.

Welcome to the college years . . . Love has not been easy for Tessa Ross and Lucas Links, but they have managed to overcome situations that so many others in their lives haven't. And through all of their difficulties, neither have ever denied the love they have for one another. But sometimes love isn't enough. What new joys, pains, and decisions will they make as they take their first steps into adulthood?

Dominique Price wants me. My body. My mind. My soul. And he can have me—behind closed doors and away from prying eyes. As long as he helps me forget my pain, and promises to stay the hell away from my heart, I'll be his. And for a short while, he'll be mine. But we're playing a dangerous game. One whose rules are swiftly being ignored. I want him. Need him. Might even be addicted to him. Only, happily ever after was never in the cards for us. And it looks like I'm the idiot who forgot that.

Ellie Klein fled Vermont after graduating high school, and she hasn't been back since. Not to see her overbearing parents nor her distant brother, not even to visit her temperamental cat and beloved dog. And most importantly, she hasn't been back to see Theo Fox. Her first love and brother's best friend has been but a distant and painful memory for the last seven years. When Ellie's travel site lands her back where it all began, her goal is to get in and out without seeing anyone from before. But life has other plans.

Dominique Price. Good looking. Arrogant. Football-God and my brother's best friend. He hates me. He wants me. He can never have me. Everything comes so easy for him. I refuse to be just another game for him to win.

Bear Thomsen and I both want the same thing—his grandpa's old auto shop. My dream is to rehab it into a bookstore. Bear's is to tear it down to build a hockey rink. Paradise is the fresh start I'm looking for after taking leave from the police force in LA. I want to escape the big city with its big problems, and avoid a big, unwinnable fight with my commanding officer. But, if I turn in my detective badge I worked so hard to earn, it will be the toughest thing I’ve ever done. Especially because I hate walking away from a fight.

You know those stories where an adorably misunderstood, clumsy girl needs a fake date to a wedding so she asks her brother’s best friend and they accidentally fall in love? I wish that was the kind of life I lead, but it’s not. I don’t need a date to a wedding. I need a date to a funeral. And I don’t have a brother, or a best friend with a brother available, which means I’m stuck with Tyler Jaeger. Sure, he’s a professional hockey player who also knows advanced calculus, but let’s say we’re not compatible and leave it at that. I should know. I am a matchmaker.

If people have polar opposites, Luca Rossi is mine. His butt is in the baseball hall of fame. Mine's comfortably seated in the hall of lame. When he's not snagging fly balls out in center field, he's modeling in shampoo commercials. I once jammed my own finger while stirring cookie dough, and sometimes I forget shampoo is a thing. He's a total cynic when it comes to love. I make a living writing love stories. But after my latest broken engagement (no, I don't want to talk about how many times that's happened), it's clear he's exactly the man I need.

Large and in charge? Honey, I'm the biggest, baddest, mother pucking-est machine to ever own the ice. I shoot. I score. In and out of the rink. I don't come early, but I come often, if you know what I mean. And I always leave the ladies wanting more. Until that chick last night. I'm no one-thrust wonder, and you're damn right I'm going to prove to her I can do better. But every time I think I'm finally on my way back into her pants, she one-ups and out-balls me. I should cut my losses, lick my wounds, and walk away. But Zeus Berger doesn't walk away from anything.
