Waylon Ludlow was my first heartbreakโthe boy I secretly loved from the sidelines while he ruled Wildhaven High and then disappeared without a word. Now heโs back, all smirks and whiskey-soaked charm, and with a baby no one knew about.
But Iโm not the same quiet girl I once was. Iโm fire now. Feral, stubborn, and one smart-ass comment away from punching him square in the jaw.
I live loud, love hard, and fight for what matters. And even though Waylon is a mess of mistakes wrapped in faded denim, my heart still skips like itโs seventeen every time he looks at me. And his little girl, well, sheโs got me wrapped around her tiny finger.
We clash. We burn. We break things. But the more I push him away, the more I wonderโam I chasing the storm, or is it chasing me?

Hunter Reddick is the talk of the league. He never backs down from a challenge. Bottom of the ninth, two outs, winning run on third? Heโs throwing a fast ball for the win. But when Hunter and his new teammates come into my bar, he makes his move on me, not expecting to get benched.
Just as he decides to give up, my carefully guarded walls start to break down. Maybe a summer fling isnโt such a bad idea after all. Except Hunter wants more than a summer. He wants falls, and winters, and something real. And heโs set his sights on me. The one girl who canโt give him that.

They say you canโt choose where you come from.
Maybe not.
