At least he's alive, not that he appreciates it. Now it's a new school year, but some things never change. Like the sizzling tension between Prescott and me every time we’re in the same room. But the more we fight, the more I want to shut him up. With my mouth. Then he sees me on a date with someone else, and something in him snaps. The deal is simple: it's just sex, and nobody can ever find out. Especially not my brother. But then the demons from my past come back to haunt me. The darker they become, the more I need Prescott. And I’m beginning to feel like he needs me too. NOTE: Kiss To Shatter is book one in Shattered & Salvaged Duet. It ends on a cliffhanger.
