Publisher Description
From the BookTok sensation and New York Times bestselling author of Bully and Falls Boys comes the fourth novel in the Fall Away series.
He's the guy she’s supposed to avoid. She's the girl he won’t let get away....
K. C. Carter has always followed the rules—until this year, when a mistake leaves her the talk of her college campus and her carefully arranged life comes crashing to a halt. Now she’s stuck in her small hometown for the summer to complete her court-ordered community service, and to make matters worse, trouble is living right next door.
Jaxon Trent is the worst kind of temptation and exactly what K.C. was supposed to stay away from in high school. But he never forgot her. She was the one girl who wouldn’t give him the time of day and the only one to ever say no. Fate has brought K.C. back into his life—except what he thought was a great twist of luck turns out to be too close for comfort. As they grow closer, he discovers that convincing K.C. to get out from her mother’s shadow is hard, but revealing the darkest parts of his soul is nearly impossible....
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Douglas's hard-edged, emotionally raw third Fall Away new adult romance (after Rival) seethes with passion. Good girl K.C. Carter is home from college for the summer and still reeling from a rough breakup. Vulnerable K.C. is unable to resist the dangerous charms of Jaxon Trent, the bad boy next door. The clash of personalities leads to a series of steamy encounters, and the two begin falling in love despite their best efforts. However, K.C. has to escape the shadow of her dead sister and emotionally abusive mother, while Jax has his own checkered past to overcome. When K.C. reclaims her birth name Juliet and Jax opens up his heart, they can finally start healing each other. Passion and anger simmer on the page, turning love into a battlefield (in which sex is one of many skirmishes) as Douglas unleashes her characters' inhibitions and dark sides. Sometimes it's hard to believe Juliet and Jax can calm down long enough to establish a healthy relationship, but their chemistry is downright explosive.

So good!!
This was soooo good!
Favorite Couple!
The chokehold this book has on me!!!!!
This surprised me
I wasn’t really sure I wanted to read this book seeing that is was about KC, she never really interested me in Bully.. sure I wanted to learn more about Jax but KC was a turn off.
When I tell you this book was absolutely gorgeous. The telling of it was amazing. I really felt for both characters and it changed me view about “KC”… Jack brings out the wild, strong, fearless girl she had buried inside her.. she became a new woman let’s just say..
We learn more about Jaxson in this book and what he went through all them years. He thought he was going to break KC out of her shell but in the end it was KC who broke his mold.
This book was really good. I’ve noticed with Douglas, that the books I’ve read so far always have a deeper meaning to them than just steamy scenes. I’m into Aflame but so far this series has been amazing!
