Allie
When I moved to
River’s Edge, dating was the last thing on my mind.
I definitely
didn’t expect to fall for him.
Jesse Shepherd.
Popular. Star
athlete. Cocky as hell.
You know the
type.
But as time
passed, I realized there was more lurking beneath that gorgeous exterior.
Secretive.
Angry. A little bit broken.
The more I
peeled back his layers, the deeper I fell.
Until I slammed
headfirst into his sea of lies.
Jess
I blew my shot.
Pissed
everything away—college, lacrosse, my future—only to end up right back where I
started in River’s Edge.
I was content to
revel in my misery, spending my days drowning in a bottomless pit of booze and
girls.
Until I saw her.
Allison Parrish.
Beautiful.
Sarcastic. Perpetual bad attitude.
The pretty
little distraction from the shit show that was my life.
But the sins of
my past were closing in on me, and I learned the hard way that nothing gold can
stay.
I am so excited
to finally have Jesse’s story. He worked a special place in my heart when I
first read about him in Bad Habit. His smart mouth, smirk and idgaf attitude
makes him the ultimate bad boy. The one everyone wants but won’t admit because
he came from the wrong side of the tracks.
When Jesse meets
Allie, you know there’s something there, but she’s so guarded. Allie is
determined to keep her walls up and not travel down that road. She has saved
herself for that special someone and she doesn’t think Jesse is the one.
However, will Jesse worm his way into her heart and make her, his? Or will Jess
just use Allie for another notch in his bed post? He is a ladies man, after all.
Charleigh Rose
is one of my top 10 favorite authors. She’s one that I will one-click without
reading the synopsis. Her writing is so descriptive and detailed, and you know
that it’s going to be a chart topper. For contemporary romance, she has the
ability to captivate her audience and pull you into her world. I can always
visualize each and every character and that ability? Priceless. I can’t wait to
see what she has up next!

“Did you hear
that?” I ask. Moving in slowly, he cages me in, bracing his right arm on the
wall above my head, his left hand by my hip. He brings his lips close to my ear
and I fight the shiver that rolls through me. “It’s probably just your
admirer,” he says, his voice hushed and husky. I swallow hard, looking over his
shoulder as he nuzzles closer, his nose skimming my neck, then down to my
collarbone. My pulse pounds in my ears as he moves back up, his mouth brushing
across my cheek, stopping at my parted lips. “Is this convincing?” He asks.
He’s so close that I can feel his breath on my lips, and I realize that I want
him to do it. I want him to kiss me. I give a slight shake of my head in
response. “No?” He smirks, knowing exactly what he’s doing to me. His left hand
leaves the wall to curl around my hip and he presses his chest to mine. “How
about this?” “Almost,” I whisper. I wet my lips and the tip of my tongue nearly
grazes his bottom lip. His expression goes from playful to heated in an
instant, then he’s closing the final distance. It’s soft at first, just a brush
of his lips against mine, but soon he’s cupping my face with both hands,
tilting my head back as his tongue sweeps into my mouth, his movements
confident and skilled. Unhurried and unyielding. My hands find his shirt,
pulling him closer as his tongue fucks my mouth. Because that’s exactly what
this is. This isn’t kissing. Or maybe it is, and I’ve been kissing the wrong
boys. Jesse groans, fitting a firm thigh between my legs, and the need bubbling
inside me threatens to boil over at the sensation. But all too soon, he pulls
back, leaving me breathless. “Was that convincing enough?”
