1. BETWEEN NEVER AND FOREVER by Brit Benson
SYNOPSIS
In the beginning, there was Savannah Shaw. Teasing me with a mischievous, merciless grin by day. Crawling through my window with tear-stained cheeks by night. I was ordered to avoid her. Forbidden from seeing her. But my need to protect her was innate. So natural I never questioned it. So visceral I couldn’t fight it. She was the first rule I ever broke, and it’s why I lost her the first time.
Now, out of nowhere, there is Sav Loveless. World famous frontwoman for The Hometown Heartless, Hollywood’s newest up-and-coming film star, and my daughter’s idol. Her reputation for trouble precedes her, but the celebrity who sets foot in my small town is no longer a girl in need of protection. She’s a woman who has saved herself, and this time, it’s my life that’s falling apart.
Maintaining the distance between us is imperative, but everything about her pulls at every part of me. My need to touch her clouds my logic. My need to have her, to own her, to love her. She’ll be the last rule I ever break, but this time, it will be to keep her.
2. OF HEARTBREAK AND HARMONY by Brit Benson
SYNOPSIS
He burned me once. This time, I won’t be the one consumed by the flames.
Torren King is rock-and-roll’s broodiest bachelor. Mysterious, moody, and coveted by nearly everyone. But to me, he’s just the sad boy who set fire to my heart, then reduced me to ashes in the desert. For four sweltering nights, I burned for him, and he conquered my heart one whispered lyric at a time. But on the fifth night, he shattered me in the way only a flawless rock god can: irreparably, and with devastating finesse.
Four years later, the last place I expect to be is sitting before him, reading through a contract with a pen poised in my fingertips. A favor for a favor, he says. A US tour and a fake relationship in exchange for the answer to all my problems.
I hate him. I hate that I need him. And what I hate the most? He doesn’t remember me. At all.
But despite the burning chemistry between us, the rapidly blurring lines and the suffocating attraction, he’s still the rock star who ruined me. I refuse to let myself forget.
