Hudson Higgins had fond memories of Boggy Creek from his childhood. So what better place to escape New York City for a few weeks to finish up a book that was nearing deadline than the small town in New Hampshire his parents visited nearly every summer.

To Marco (No I’m not going to add Polo), Last night was a mistake. A big mistake. Or rather should I say small? I don’t want to hurt your ego. I should have listened to your sister. You’re insufferable and rude and far too cocky. Don’t worry, I won’t be telling anyone what happened because as far as I’m concerned it never did. Please stop calling me. I do not need to come and collect my bra from you. Or the t-shirt you lent me to sleep in when I got cold. No, that one act doesn’t make you a gentleman. And no, I do not need to have your smell near me to fall asleep.

"To Mr. Tate Howard, You are quite possibly the most infuriating, annoying and grumpy man I’ve ever met in my life. I know you think that you’re God’s gift to women, but I have a secret to let you in on: you’re not. You’re God’s gift to yourself. Get over your wanna-be cool surfer self and grow up. I thought it was time that someone addressed your big head and told you straight to your face that you're not all that. Just because you have an Ivy league education doesn’t mean you’re the smartest man in the world."

Tyler Redwood, you might be my brother’s best friend, but I find you to be insufferable, cocky, arrogant, immature, and totally annoying.

Except when my celebrity ex drags me into the spotlight. And Keelan steps in—a little too fiercely.

Joshua Hicks is a hockey superstar who hired me for one thing: to help him with three kids that landed on his doorstep. Day one, he's shirtless and working on his car. It takes everything in me to look away, but he soaks me up like the sun itself. When he finds out I've never been kissed, he offers me a proposition. I live with him as his nanny for the summer; he'll teach me all about dating. His lessons leave me breathless… a touch here… a kiss there. It doesn't mean anything, right?

Six years ago strangers broke into my house while I was home alone. I hid, but one of them found me. I expected death, but he spared me. I thought it was over … except for the nightmares. But he was only waiting for me to ripen to his taste. I’m not the first girl he’s taken to sate his dark hunger, but I will be the last.

Savannah Merricourt is labeled as my intended, and I should accept it, as I do everything, because my father’s too powerful and I’ve been locked in the basement too many times.

The Edwards daughters have a reputation for falling in love under forbidden circumstances. Not me, though. I'm the calm, collected one and Daddy's new favorite since I cause the least trouble.

We have all these plans to live off-campus and then start our careers without wasting our best years caught up in toxic relationships. Until the night we had dinner with his parents. And his older brother walked in…. Masen Cooper.
