Mason Kade is the dream.

He is the promise.

He’s offering what so many would fantasize about, and it’s not that I don’t want it/him/us.

It’s the opposite.

There might be ghosts haunting me, but this man who's my soulmate is asking me for forever.

How can I say no to someone who already gave me my happily ever after?

It's been years since my mother was in my life.

I healed. I learned to accept love. I lived.That's all done.

She was away, and now she's back.

I avoided her for a year and a half, but I couldn't hide anymore.

Mason had an internship in Fallen Crest, so we headed back for the summer.

And when we got there—no one was prepared for what happened.

Fallen Crest is back with a vengeance!

Samantha, Mason, and Logan are all together and united with one common enemy: Park Sebastian, the king of fraternity douchebags.

With professional football scouts eyeing his every move, Mason Kade has to walk the line for the first time in his life. Any move he makes against Sebastian has to be perfect and under the radar. One mistake, and his career is over.

Sebastian has other plans. Mason’s career isn’t his target—not even close. Wanting to destroy Mason completely, Sebastian knows he must hit him where it hurts the most: Samantha, who doesn’t give a rat’s ass that she’s the target.

Sam is bound and determined to protect Mason herself, no matter the cost, but what if the cost is beyond her imagination? What if this time, the villain wins?

My mother tried to destroy me. She doesn’t exist to me anymore and my father, the one who raised me and the biological one, are both works in progress. The only two people that I can trust are Mason and Logan, and they’re the two people who I could lose. It won’t happen. I won’t let it. No matter the truth, no matter who loves me, I won’t let anything or anyone come between us.

They’re my world. They’re my life.

They’re my family.

Sam's first day at Fallen Crest Public doesn't go well. Some girls want to be her. Some girls want to destroy her. And some just don't like her. All in all, despite being protected by Mason and Logan, it's still only the strong survive. Sam will not only have to survive, she needs to learn how to conquer too, but there's another battle growing. Things are about to come to a disastrous end between the towns, Roussou and Fallen Crest. Sam's other main dilemma? Keeping Mason and Logan from getting arrested or hospitalized.

Samantha and Mason are together. Everyone knows it. Not everyone is dealing with it. While Mason's ready to give them the middle finger, there's one not going away. Her mother. Threats are issued. Ultimatums are given. Even blackmail is used, but only Samantha can put a stop to Analise. However, when a trauma from her past is triggered, she may not have the courage or strength to do what's needed. If she doesn't, Mason's future could be destroyed.

Being crew is walking between two worlds.

One world is normal: Prom. Parties. College.

Those are the concerns they worry about.

In our world, we deal with other situations.

Cops. Drugs. Brawling.

That's a typical day for us.

But what if it wasn't?

What if there came a day when you stopped?

When you considered letting your enemies win?

When you didn't fight back?

When you chose a different path?

First I lost my family. Then I got the Wolf Crew.

I couldn't lose them too.

But what happens when Cross, Zellman, and Jordan keep going…

...and I don't?

For the longest time, I was Bren Monroe.

I lived in Roussou, California.

I had no parents, no brother, but I had a crew.

Then things started to change.

I never planned for any of it.

I didn’t think I’d fall in love.

I didn’t think I’d have a relationship with my brother again.

I didn’t think that he’d come back.

Now I’m in Cain.

My crew is in college.

They’re growing, going through their own things.

And here I am, figuring out my life.

There’s always hurdles and obstacles to overcome.

That was never my hardship.

That was my regular.

But living? Being content? Being happy?

Those were my challenges now.

Everything was going well…

Until it wasn’t. Again.

To survive where I live, you have two options.

You can be a Normal—a cheerleader, jock, member of the debate team, or on the yearbook committee. You pretend everything is normal.

Or you can be crew.

You insult us? We hurt you.

You hurt us? We really hurt you.

And if you f*ck with us, we will end you.

My name is Bren.

I'm the only female in the Wolf Crew—the best, fiercest, and most dangerous crew there is—and we have a rule: There's no falling in love.

Well… too late.

Mason and Logan Kade are two brothers who did their own thing. They were rich and expected to attend Samantha's school, Fallen Crest Academy. They chose public school and now she has to live with them. The problem is that she doesn't care at all: about them, about her friends, about her cheating boyfriend, or even about her parent's divorce. But maybe that's a good thing. Maybe change is a good thing. This book contains adult/mature young adult situations.

Mason Kade is not known to be nice. He is ruthless, manipulative, and unforgiving. Most will say that he is a jerk and he is to those that cross him or cross his loved ones. However, he does not want to be who he is. He does not enjoy hurting others, but there is no limit to the lengths he will go to protect himself and his brother. This is the story of how he came to be and this is why so many love Mason Kade.

This is a story of a destroyed family and the effects it had on a son.
