Grayson Ford and Emma Kinglsey--close since they were kids, opposites in every way. He's the stuff high school crushes are made of, Mister Popular, and captain of every team. She's artsy, cute, and not in his league, though fully aware of Summerland's "I Dream of Dating Grayson Ford" support group.

I can't say no. The girl's had my heart since before I knew it went missing.

He hides a life of hell. His father hates him, his mother's gone. Emma is his only savior, yet she doesn't know her power over him. She's the only girl he wants, the only one he could ever tell--though he won't.

I'm stronger, bigger, more of a man than he'll ever be, but because I ruined his life, I've taken his crap, his attacks, the vulgar nature of his existence.

Until she discovers Gray's embarrassment, his humiliation. Emma fights for him and for a chance. Theirs is a Cinderella story that she believes impossible. But as the layers peel back, it's just a guy who needs a girl in order to keep breathing.

My mind is already doodling Mrs. Grayson Ford in imaginary notebooks. He has no clue where my head is at... But, given that I didn't see what just happened coming, maybe I have no clue where his head is at either.

Only for Him. Only series, Volume One.
All novellas will release Spring 2015

Read an excerpt:

He reaches over our heads and grabs my iPod, shoving an ear bud in his ear and one in mine. A “few scrolls later, music blasts. It’s kinda emo, a little deep, nothing that I expect he’d choose. The vocals croon about heartache, about how the future is a blur. The beat drops low, and the bass rolls through my body. Even though Gray’s so close, or maybe because of it, I feel my blood thumping.

“Now that…” Slowly, he nabs the lone ear bud from me. Our eyes lock. “I’d pay to see you dance to.”

“Grayson,” I whisper as a fever hits my neck, bleeding through me. When he looks like this—acts like it too—I don’t know what’s for real and what’s in my head.

“Been talking to your wall?”

I stifle a cringe. He knows me so well it hurts. “Something like that.”

“About me?” He smiles, but it’s not a joke. Everything feels different. His voice sounds different. His touches have been longer, his looks deeper, and right now, he’s not pulling back from his question. “Nothing to say, Ems?”
