Desperate

by Sapir Englard

In high school, Veronica Tanner was “a stuck-up bookworm who’d never get laid in a million years”—at least, that’s what the mean girls called her. But she’s grown out of that, and now all she wants is Jax Cole, her stepbrother’s drop-dead-gorgeous best friend. Luckily for her, he wants her too, but they’ve known each other since they were kids. Wouldn’t it be weird and kinda gross? He is stupidly hot though…

So when her best friend offers a lifeline in the form of her brother’s spare room, she doesn’t hesitate... even if that brother happens to be her longtime nemesis. He’s cocky, infuriating, and way too attractive for his own good. Neither of them wants this setup, but sparks start flying faster than they can dodge them. As the walls come down, attraction turns dangerous. He’s known as a player, and she’s known him long enough not to trust him... so why does her heart say otherwise? With secrets, grudges, and chemistry colliding, one wrong move could burn it all down.

by Anne Laura van Rooij

Lena Carter has one rule she refuses to break—Jaxon Walker is off limits. He’s her best friend’s older brother, the school’s star point guard, and the last person she should ever want. But rules have a funny way of bending when Jaxon decides he’s not going anywhere. What starts as teasing banter and sharp-tongued exchanges slowly shifts into something heavier, charged with stolen glances and moments that linger too long. Lena keeps telling herself to stay away, to stay loyal, to stay safe. Yet every interaction pulls her closer to the one person she swore she wouldn’t fall for. And when lines finally blur, she has to decide if protecting the truth is worth losing the only connection that feels real.
