LOGINWhen 19-year-old Lila Monroe moves into her new stepfather’s mansion, she doesn’t expect her stepbrother to be Asher Vale, Harrington Academy’s notorious bad boy, and a biker with a temper, and a line of girls trailing behind him. She’s whimsical, artistic, and a little too honest for her own good. He’s trouble with a jawline, tattoos, and a reputation to match. They hate each other instantly. But when a rumor threatens Lila’s place at the academy, Asher comes up with a reckless plan and asks her to pretend to be her boyfriend to protect both their reputations. What starts as a fake relationship slowly blurs the line between hate and something dangerously real. But what happens when her childhood crush also transfers to the same school?
View MoreLila's povI could not believe it. The first boy I've ever masturbated to was here…in my new school. And the best part? He was calling me baby.“Uh…we just moved down here and my parents sent us here. What a coincidence!” Jax exclaimed, hugging me again. I closed my eyes and inhaled deeply, letting his perfume wash over me. Once upon a time I'd been madly in crush with Jax, who had been a classmate at my former school. He was also my closest friend's twin brother.He never saw me as anything else other than his sister's friend. I know because he always called me sport, and he calls his sister that. “Yeah…uh, wow.” I tried to keep it breezy and chill, but I could feel my toes tingling as he hugged me. He'd never hugged me before. In fact this was the closest we'd ever gotten.“Wait? Wasn't I over him already?” I asked myself, pushing out of his hug. “Uh…what about Kiesha?” I asked, not even bothering to hide my excitement that my friend would be here too.He ran his hand through his
Asher’s POVRumors died fast at Harrington when you gave them something better to chew on.Unfortunately for Lila and I, nothing new came up. It was a Monday morning and Lila had spent her time with her father over the weekend.And even though I'd never say it out loud, I had missed having her around the house. I pulled into the school's parking lot, and turned off the engine of my motorcycle but I didn't stand up.I know I said this was fake, but I could not stop thinking about her, not that I'll admit it to anyone. No other girl had ever made me lose sleep before. Hell, I didn't even smoke my cigarettes this weekend.A beat up Ford sedan pulled up into the lot just then. It wasn't flashy like all the other cars in the lot. I've never seen that car before so it must be her. I was right.Lila stepped out, slinging her backpack over one shoulder as her dirty blonde hair caught the morning light. Her face was set in a frown but still effortlessly pretty in her vintage sweater, miniskirt
Lila’s POVI stepped back quickly, but it was too late, Vivian waved the phone in the air. “I was live, and the whole school has seen you kissing your stepsister.”I gasped, covering my mouth with my hand. No…this wasn't happening. Asher caught Vivian’s arm and dragged her to him. “What did you do that for? Are you crazy?”Vivian laughed and then buried her nose in Asher's neck. My heart twisted at that. Why was she so close to him? Why didn’t he push her away? His tongue had just been in my mouth.“I told you no one would take you away from me.” She pulled away from him and turned to me. “Not even her.”“Yiu know you;re insane right? We’re not in a relationship. Why the hell do you keep scaring away every girl I get close to?” Asher asked.“Uh…this is lovely and all, but Vivian when you meant the whole school, did you mean like your classmates alone?” I asked, scared that if this became a scandal, I might lose my scholarship. I had only gotten the scholarship because of my stepfather
Asher’s POVI didn't want a stepsister, especially one like Lila Monroe.She was all sunlight and weird energy. She hummed when she drew, talked to herself when she thought no one was looking and dressed like she was in season one of Shameless.I hated her. Because of her mother, my father remarried just after a year of my mom's death. How could he? How could he move on so easily? I stopped counting how many times I wanted to smash something since then.I was never going to like her, and her mother, and I wanted her to know that. I was toasting my bread that morning when he said, “You'll drive your new sister to school, Asher.”I stared at him across the kitchen island. “Are you serious?”“Yes,” he said without looking up from his phone. “Lila isn’t taking public transportation. She’ll ride with you.”“She’s not a kid.”“She’s family,” he said.Lila walked in right then, her dirty blonde hair tied up in some messy bun, wearing a yellow sweater that looked like it belonged in a childre
