I’d
never met anyone quite like Mathias Wade.
He
was brooding and arrogant, but I loved him anyway.
Together
we were wild and uncontained—a hurricane raging.
Then
I had to leave, and words were exchanged that could never be undone.
But
now I was back, and Mathias better watch out, because this bitch
wasn’t finished with him.
Game.
Set. Match.
All
is fair in love and war, right?
Mathias
Wade, the lead singer of Willow Creek, is used to getting everything
he wants. Except for Remy Parker—the one that got away. Childhood
friends that grew into more, Remy was the one constant in his life
until she moved away. In anger, he lashed out and broke the only girl
he ever loved. With temptation around every corner Mathias drowns his
sorrow in women and alcohol. When the band returns to their hometown
for the holidays the last thing Mathias expects is to run into
Remy—but she’s back, and she’s not done with him.
Remy
never forgot Mathias or the pain he caused her. When she moves back
to the place she grew up to take care of her ailing grandma her heart
is set on revenge. She’s determined to make Mathias fall in love
with her all over again—only this time she’s going to break his
heart.
But
Mathias never stopped loving Remy—and she soon discovers that her
feelings haven’t disappeared either.
Can
two people too stubborn for their own good overcome their own demons
and find the love they always deserved?
I
jumped up on the counter and he moved to stand in front of me,
bracing his hands beside my hips. I kicked my legs against the
cabinets like a little kid as he stared down at me intensely. I
wasn’t sure what he was looking for in my eyes, but he must have
found it, because he cupped my cheek and leaned in.
“This
feels like when we were younger,” he whispered. “Like no time at
all has passed.” His words echoed my previous thoughts.
I
closed my eyes, feeling his breath fan across my lips.
God,
I’d missed him.
It
didn’t seem possible to miss someone I’d grown to hate, but I
did.
I
was pretty sure that when someone like Mathias came into your life
they were impossible to forget.
He
was like the sun, burning so bright that even once he was gone I was
still blinded.
“Did
you ever miss me?” I asked. “Even once?” I held my breath,
waiting for him to explode—because that was Mathias. He could be
nice one minute and an asshole the next. I wouldn’t put it past him
to kick me out for my question.
Instead
he surprised me by leaning in impossibly closer and nuzzling my neck.
“Always.”
