Vienna Shaw doesn't do risky, edgy, or anything on the wild side. She's the woman who thinks The Goonies is a horror movie and lives for Austen-era romance novels.

She didn't expect the smoldering guy with tattoos to step up and knock one of those things off her list.

Ryder Huntington was my first and only broken heart. I promised no one would tear me up like his sweet words and broken promises ever again.

And I certainly didn't expect Ryder would bring with him cops, handcuffs, and words like "breaking and entering." Now he wants to make up for the misunderstanding. Well, that ship has sailed, I think.

I have no plans to change my mind, until the night we collide (literally) in the parking lot.

Asher Hansen began tormenting me our freshman year, not long after my father kicked him and his older brother off the compound with nothing but the clothes on their back. They blamed Dad for their mother taking her own life. To be honest, I think I did, too.

But that doesn't explain why his words always made me feel...fizzy inside.
