Official bonus novella to High School Hit List.

Maddy Danton should have never returned. She's collateral damage, trapped within a cage of secrets, a risk to the reputation of a boy held on a perfect pedestal. And maybe freeing herself from her shackles is as unrealistic as it is dangerous.

But lies can only last as long as their facade survives. And Maddy is sure she is dying.

A deeper, darker, and steamier insight into the characters of High School Hit List. Find out what happened to the royalty of Arlington once they left the kingdom.

» can be read as stand-alone, however, contains spoilers to its predecessor

Seven years ago, Tristan Knight walked away from the love of his life, Serenity Harris, without a word or a backwards glance. No goodbye. No Dear John letter. No words of apologies or excuses. She'd woken up one morning to an empty bed, her body sore; her hair wild and unkempt from their tempestuous love-making the night before. That night had been the first time Tristan told her he loved her. Their courtship had started fast. It took four hours for him to get her into bed and take her virginity and one night for her to fall head over heels in love with him. The year leading up to their final night together had been full of twists and turns, ups and downs. But she'd thought they had finally gotten to a place where they full understood and valued one another. So what happened? Why did he leave? And why had he come back today of all days? Her wedding day. To his former best friend and band mate, Nyle Wentworth. Nyle has been there for Serenity ever since Tristan left her heart in irrepairable pieces. Nyle loved her back to life and in spite of her love for Tristan, she found herself drawn to him. Now they're about to get married. Nyle won Serenity fair and square and he doesn't feel bad about actively pursuing her, falling in love with her, marrying her, or spending the rest of his life with her. He and Tristan were friends but that's all in the past. And that's where he intends to keep it. All Serenity wants to do is to marry Nyle, be happy, and go on with her life but the reappearance of the love of her life is making that more than difficult. Tristan is back, he wants what's his, and he doesn't care who he has to destroy or kill to have it. Now that Tristan's back, Serenity finds herself torn between what her heart wants and who her head knows is the better choice. **For mature audiences only (18+)

Well written" ~HappyEndingWriter ***Teaser: I went into a frenzy when the curtain was drawn apart and there stood the boy next door with his eyes closed and hands outstretched. But he wasn't just there. He was stark shirtless! My eyes slowly widened and I could feel my own heart beat frantically against my chest ribs. If anyone told me the nerd had perfect eight pack abs and flexed muscles, I'd disagree but here it was, mocking me right in the face. Sweats trickled their way down his belly lines and his torso was rising in a sync.*** --- Extended description: What happens when the tomboy starts to have girl like feelings she ought not to and always condemned?

UNEDITED After violating campus rules and committing student misconduct, twenty-three-year-old Warren Ashford is deep trouble and at risk of losing his volleyball scholarship -- the one thing he truly values other than his bad boy reputation, and his family. There's only one way Warren can salvage the scholarship that's giving him a free ride through university and that involved keeping his lifestyle low-key. Meaning, no partying at clubs on Friday nights and no late-night hookups with random girls. No fun. Just him, his education, and volleyball. Oh -- and the high-strung, sassy girl with the deepest brown eyes he's ever seen. The moment she walks into his dorm room -- the same room she's staying in because of a glitch in the computer system -- he wants nothing more than to strip her down both physically and mentally. Not only is she immune to boys like Warren, but she makes it obvious that she's not interested in having any kind of relationship with the campus' star athlete. Warren likes the challenge, but little does he know that Nova Elliot, behind her spitfire attitude and deep brown eyes, is still nursing a broken heart and a past full of despair. The last thing she wants is to hand her heart over to a boy like Warren Ashford (who has a faultless smoulder) -- the kind that only ends up breaking hearts after toying with them. But as the winter semester passes and the heat of summer arrives, Warren's bad boy charm begins to crack Nova's structurally built walls as the two of them head out on an unforgettable trip to Halifax. The two of them begin to learn that two people often fall in love with the most unexpected person at the most unexpected time and do unexpected things.
