Nothing in Kellen O'Connell's life has come easy. He knows better than anyone that, if you want something, you'd better fight for it. When he finds himself drawn to a feisty kindergarten teacher, he realizes he's going to have to fight harder than ever if he wants to know her secrets. On the outside, Ali Crawford has it all. The perfect job. Great friends. A wonderful family. But she has demons, just like everyone else. There are things she's never given a voice to, and they are relentlessly chipping away at her conscience. Will she have the courage to trust the magnetic, if not annoyingly infuriating, Kellen with her past? Or will she let it ruin the best thing she's ever known, as it turns her into someone she doesn't even recognize? If they can learn to trust each other, they might just find something worth fighting for. *Intended for readers 18 years of age and up due to mature content.
