Oliver West never expected his quiet life to turn into a nightmare. The boy who once shared secrets and summer adventures with him has become someone he doesn’t recognize. Keiran Morrison - tall, dangerous, and devastatingly handsome - now uses that same intensity that once made Oliver’s heart flutter to terrorize him instead.

Every day at Riverside High is a battle for survival. Every corner could hide a new humiliation. Every moment of peace is just the calm before Keiran’s next storm.

But why does Keiran’s hatred burn so bright? What happened to turn childhood love into adult cruelty? And why, despite everything, does Oliver’s heart still race when Keiran gets close - even when he’s terrified?

Some mistakes can’t be forgiven. Some wounds run too deep to heal.

But sometimes the line between love and hate is thinner than you think.

My heart was hammering so hard I was sure he could hear it. The sound of the zipper being slowly pulled downward seemed impossibly loud in the darkened theater.


I grabbed Kieran's arm with both hands, trying to stop his movements while frantically whispering, "You, you, you you're the b-best!"


This is insane. We're in public, is he going to grope me like this where people can see us? Why is this so hot? 


NAH NAH, I halted my mind's thoughts, and made sure we both understood.


THIS ONE WASN'T ON ME, I TOTALLY DIDN'T THINK THAT!


I looked to see Kieran still watching me deeply and I held his hand even tighter and slowly released his fingers from my fly  "I'm serious, you're the best boyfriend in the entire world"


My response seemed to satisfy Kieran because he surged forward, capturing my lips in a kiss. It began softly when he pecked my lips repeatedly.
