Pine River (Special Edition)

nPine River was supposed to be a new start for me.n n nn nAnd it was, especially attending school with my three overprotective cousins, who were the triplets at the top of the social hierarchy.n n nn nExcept they weren't alone there, and the first day when I came to school, I saw him.n n nn n n n nn nScout Raiden.n n nn nTall. Lean. Tattooed. Mesmerizing.n n nn nHe was a golden god with dark and piercing eyes-looking like he wanted to eat me up.n n nn n n n nn nThe feeling was mutual, and that was a problem.n n nn nIt was lust-want-must have-loathing-hate all at once. I was affected.n n nn nAnd I couldn't have that. No way.n n nn nNot after what I'd just left in Cedra Valley.n n nn n n n nn nI didn't care how much money his uncle had.n n nn nI didn't care that it seemed every girl wanted him.n n nn nI didn't care about his reputation as an up-and-coming fighter.n n nn nOr the promise of how those hands would make me feel.n n nn n n n nn nWhat I did care about was staying as far away from Scout as possible.n n nn nBecause the promise of his presence, the heat that was going to turn the light back on in my world wasn't a promise at all.n n nn nIt was a threat.n n nn n n n nn nI wasn't going to survive Scout Raiden.n
