TOO STRONG
(
CONOR
I kissed her.
She slapped me... and then told me to ask her to dinner, only to cancel the date ten minutes later.
After watching my older brothers fall in love, I knew it was a matter of time before I’d be the one mindlessly losing my head over a girl, but I didn’t expect it to happen so fast. I was supposed to buy a house, get a job, and spend the next few years enjoying my youth before submitting to one woman for the rest of my life.
Fate had different plans, though, sending me on a mission to pursue a girl who doesn’t want to be pursued.
Too bad that fate and the past get in our way...
Just when I think I’m winning, a well-kept Hayes family secret turns our lives upside down.
VIVIENNE
I told him to ask me out.
And then I found out he’s a Hayes. Entitled, rich, spoilt.
I’ve steered clear of rich boys like him all my life. It’s not that difficult, really. Once they realize I live at a trailer park, work two jobs, and drive a battered old car, they disappear faster than they appeared.
But not Conor. He’s relentless in his pursuit, a bit awkward, too, with how he plays hot and cold, but the more I get to know him, the more I realize not all rich boys fit in the same bag.
I cave, falling for him hard and fast...
And then I crash when old truths come knocking on our door, tearing us apart.
