Reading In Between The Lions

Tamine Jordan has three rules for surviving Blackridge Academy: 1. Keep her head down. 2. Avoid the Thorpe brothers at all costs. 3. Never, ever, let her heart get involved again. But rules have a way of shattering, especially when your cheating ex and his infuriatingly charming half-brother are determined to make your life impossible. Atlas Thorpe, the boy who broke her heart, is cruel, smug, and still playing games that leave her humiliated in front of half the school. Evans Thorpe, the hockey team’s golden boy, should be easier to ignore… except one reckless night left her tangled in his memory and in his sights. Now Evans has maneuvered his way into her Literature class, and thanks to the world’s most sadistic teacher, Tamine is stuck tutoring him. Being near him is dangerous; not just because of his relentless teasing and disarming smile, but because she can’t stop remembering the way he once touched her. And when two brothers are locked in a rivalry where the prize is her, it’s only a matter of time before someone gets burned. The real question is, will Tamine survive the game, or end up playing it too?

I was a year old when I tried to get some food from my sister's plate. My parents were so angry that they slapped me, rendering me deaf in my right ear. They also hated me until the day I died. They called me a monster that only knew how to take her sister's things. The day I learn I have a terminal illness, I call Mom and tentatively say, "I'm sick, Mom. The doctor said it's a brain tumor. Can you come to the hospital?" She sneers. "You're better off dead. I hope it happens quickly and that you're not at home when it does. I don't want to touch your body." I know they've always looked forward to my death. But when their wish finally comes true and their birth daughter dies, they lose their minds.

"Sign those damn divorce papers, Blaire. I want you out of my life as soon as possible!" Nagising si Blaire sa ospital na walang alaala sa nakalipas na anim na taon. At sa harap niya, si Ryker Montefalcon, ang pinakamayaman, pinaka-cold at pinaka-hot na CEO sa bansa. Ang mas masakit pa ay dala nito ang divorce papers, habang ang isang batang mahina at puno ng pasa ay tawag sa kanya ng “Mommy.” Sa mata ng lahat, isa siyang traydor na asawa at masamang ina. Ang anak niyang lalaki, puno ng galit at ayaw siyang makita. Ang anak niyang babae, takot na takot na maiwan. At si Ryker, galit, sugatan, at handang burahin siya sa buhay nito. Naguguluhan man ay hindi papayag si Blaire na malaman ang katotohanan sa likod ng mga misteryo. Hindi siya maniniwalang gano’n ang pagkatao niya. Kaya kahit gaano kasakit, kahit gaano kainit ang galit ni Ryker, sa halik na puno ng poot, sa yakap na may halong tukso ay gagawin niya ang lahat para muling makuha ang puso nito. Sa pagitan ng galit, paghihiganti, at pagnanasa… handa bang magpatalo si Blaire sa apoy ng isang lalaking kaya siyang wasakin pero siya rin ang tanging lalaking gusto niyang mahalin muli?
