Just an innocent bet. Okay, well, maybe a bet to rob the three most virtuous girls in town of their purity isn't exactly innocent, but there's no way we could have known how it would all turn out. How much trouble it would bring. But what the hell were an Amish girl and her sisters doing in the middle of Bright Falls, anyway? I mean, it seemed almost too easy. She was a sheep and I was the wolf, and it was time for me to feast.

It’s been two years since I left for college; the last time I saw Isla. But when she shows up on my doorstep, the last thing I’m expecting is old feelings to resurface. Growing up, we were friends, until everything started to shift. Our friendship turned into stolen kisses and forbidden touches, but we agreed it could never be anything more. Not when her brother was my best friend.

Spending my summer at St. Mary's Boarding School isn't the same without my friends. I knew it wouldn't be. What I don't expect is to see her again. Isla Ransford. The last time I saw Isla, I gave her one rule to follow: become invisible. Four years later, she shows up at St. Mary's and is anything but invisible. The only logical solution is for me to ignore her—resist her. When I find out why she's back at St. Mary's, my choice to stay away is taken. I'm forced to intervene. After all, I'm the reason for her suffering.

We were from two completely different worlds: I was molded to follow the rules; I was the good girl living the sheltered life at St. Mary's Boarding School. But fate brought us together. Somewhere along the way, following the rules became a choice. The lines became blurred, and I was given a taste of rebellion in a package of wild blue eyes and hot, lingering touches. Our plan was set. I would escape St. Mary's, and he would stay. Isaiah warned me that we'd go up in flames if we veered from our plan. Except there was no we about it. Isaiah Underwood let me fall right into the ashes.

Murder. Lies. Betrayal. I deal with those things every day. My name is Jason Avery, and I'm one of the best undercover agents in the country.

Mad at the world and everyone in it, I sought solace at my parents' lake house for the summer. It was supposed to be somewhere for me to be alone and heal. When London Hayes walks back into my life, the universe has different plans. I need to find a way to derail them because I refuse to drag her down with me.

The last thing I expected was to find my boyfriend in bed with one of my best friends. Their betrayal sent me on the next flight back to my hometown in Vermont. The plan was to take the summer to find myself. No dating and no distractions. But when my brother's roommate asks me to come to Canada with him for the summer, I find myself saying yes. I've never been one to turn down an adventure, and how could I possibly deny Simon Murray with those steel gray eyes and dimples he has?

Transferring schools in the middle of my freshman year wasn't a part of my plan, but I won't let my smile falter. Even when I run into my best friend's older brother, the grumpy hockey player I had a crush on in high school. He threatens to break down every wall I've barricaded myself behind, but I can't let him in. Not when I know that he'll only break my heart. He claims he doesn't have feelings for me, so I'm left with no choice but to move on from the fantasy land I've been living inside my head. But as soon as I meet another guy, Sterling Barrett has other plans.

He's my best friend's brother, and he's completely deranged. Dark, disturbed, and hell-bent on making my life as his new tutor an actual living nightmare, he's the enemy I should shy away from.

After experiencing a nasty break-up during my freshman year, there is one type of guy that I refuse to get involved with: anyone from the university’s hockey team. Hayden King is arrogant and has a reputation for being a playboy. There isn’t a single thing about him that I like. Then one drunken summer night turns into a bad decision with Hayden, one that I swear I’ll never make again. But once senior year starts, I can’t seem to get away from him. He’s everywhere I go, everywhere I turn. He’s under my skin and I find myself making mistake after mistake with him.

The last thing that I want to be doing is tutoring Cameron Sawyer. When he asked for my help, I tried to resist, but tutoring another student would look good on my application for med school. That’s all he is—a means to an end. However, the more time that we spend together, the harder it is to ignore his charm. Cam is starting to grow on me, but I can’t get involved with him. We want two different things out of life; we’re on two separate paths. Our dreams can’t coexist and neither can our hearts. Even if they keep playing offsides.

August Whitley was just a fling–someone fun to spend my time with no strings attached. We broke things off before our feelings grew, but it was already too late. After leaving town, I swore to myself that I would never look back. And when I get surprising news, I’m completely committed to doing it alone. Until one night when he walks back into my life…

Loving her was like breathing air—it was hard to live without. Journey Smith was quiet and guarded, and above all else, beautiful. When we were alone, I grew to know the girl behind the stormy eyes. Her hesitant touches and hidden smiles were reserved for me, but now they're gone. Stolen moments of happiness were replaced with sharp barbs and fiery glares concealing her fear. Our past was written in the stone of St. Mary’s—a past that I was not willing to repeat. But what I assumed to be the truth was nothing more than a fabrication of such.

We couldn’t have been more opposite. I was molded to break the rules. My life was seeded in corruption at St. Mary's Boarding School. Fate brought us together, and we formed a plan. I gave her that taste of rebellion, and she became mine. She was my kryptonite. I was her escape, and her trust was in me.

Right or wrong, he’s blaming the beautiful and infuriating stranger he never wants to see again. They’re both in for a shock when Mackenzie shows up as his new personal assistant.

Most women fall for me pretty fast. Maybe it's my killer combo of muscles and good looks, or maybe it's my reputation of always leaving them satisfied, if not panting for more. But there's one thing I never do, and that's get involved for longer than it takes for both of us to get off a few times. Until Hannah Miller, that is. Somehow, she made me break all my own rules.
