Even if it Hurts: (Coastal Elite, #1)

Product Information

In its permanent home, my Coastal Elite series, the book will have a new Coastal Elite cover (and a discreet version for those who prefer them), but the story has not changed, so if you missed Sophie and Silvan’s story earlier this year, don’t worry!

It could have anyone questioning their life choices, pondering over existential matters and reshaping, for lack of a better word, the concept of true love and loyalty.

But like always Sam has a keen ability of balancing the immoral (and illegal), boundary pushing behavior of her leading men with my catnip trait- they would do ANYTHING to possess, to care for, and to protect the heroine…except from themselves, of course. Except, you'll never have this particular guy shouting in front of your door for you to let him in the house. Laura and I opted to leave her name off the cover of the discreet version (it will still be on the interior title page) for the sake of uniformity. She’s mentioned like twice in the book and all Hanna says is that her friend Parker she wants to go to her house and hang out. The man said yes i stapled her hands to the bench and was going to ram a object up her and she found that dedicated.

Then they have that private talk in the empty classroom and he’s doing more sexually suggestive threatening, grabbing, squeezing, and holding her by the throat, leaning into her air space. Don’t get me wrong- he does very bad, wrong, not okay in the real world (and to some not even okay in an imaginary one) things to others and to our heroine Aubrey. The timeline is too tight, I wouldn’t have been able to get it all posted and be sure I could also get it back down in time to publish it. Aubrey is a seemingly sweet and innocent FMC who has tried to slip through high school, and by accident, unfortunately attracted the attention of a girl bent on revenge and her dangerous not-so-good boyfriend who decides he wants in on her plan.So Aubrey not only has to take care of her mom and spend as much time with her as she can, but she works and attends school full time. I have a feeling the Coastal Elite series is going to turn out to be as intricately woven, addictive, and captivating as Sam's Morelli Family series that had me in a chokehold back in 2018.

I swear this guy always kept in mind what was in Aubrey's best interest 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻), you don't let any other man touch you, and you have a bright future laid bare ahead of you. Wrapped in Red will not be released on its own, so if you want to own that one, either this Christmas collection or the Meet Me Under the Mistletoe anthology are the only places to get it. Fingers crossed we get a lot more of Dare and Aubrey in future books and possibly even another book of their own one day.

You see, there was this one girl who wrote an insulting haiku about our sweet Aubrey (notoriously famous for being a girl of iron will, her principles made of steel).
