Marylin
She declared war on the king. She never expected to win his heart.
When Ashley Monroe moves to Ridgeview, she has one rule: keep her head down and survive her junior year. That plan dies the moment she witnesses Marcel Vance—the school's untouchable quarterback and reigning bad boy—humiliating a freshman in the hallway. Everyone else looks away. Ashley steps forward.
It's the worst decision she's ever made. And the best.
Marcel is furious. Intrigued. Undone. No one has ever challenged him, and certainly not a fiesty, curvy new girl with fire in her eyes and a mouth that won't quit. He tries to destroy her socially. She fights back harder. He tries to ignore her. He can't. Every glance becomes a battle. Every argument becomes foreplay. And the more Marcel tries to push Ashley away, the more he realizes she's the only person who's ever truly seen him—the broken boy beneath the crown.
But Marcel has secrets. His father controls his future. His best friend, Liam, is falling for Ashley too. And a beautiful, vicious cheerleader named Tiffany has already staked her claim on him. As the war between Ashley and Marcel transforms into an undeniable, electric attraction, the stakes rise higher than either of them imagined.
When Marcel is forced to choose between the life he was born into and the girl who makes him feel alive, he will have to destroy everything he's ever known. But will Ashley's love be enough to save him? Or will the king of Ridgeview High crush the only person who ever dared to love him?
Some enemies are destined to become lovers. Some wars are worth losing everything for.
