Endgame: Ocean Bay #1

Endgame: Ocean Bay #1

My name is Mercy James, and I've always had a three-point plan:<br /><br />•Get through senior year with the best possible grades.<br />•Get a full-ride scholarship through college. <br />•Get the hell away from my irresponsible single mother. <br /><br />I didn’t think this was too much to ask for and I worked damn hard to make it a reality. <br />For years, everything went according to plan. Sure, I was dragged through several different schools and towns since the age of ten by my emotionally stunted mother, but I was almost there, dammit. I was on the verge of starting senior year in high school and my final year of this plan…<br />Until my mother went and did the unthinkable!<br />She only went and got herself knocked up by a man who lives on the other side of the country! <br />Worse than getting pregnant, mom married the douche. <br />As if it wasn’t bad enough to uproot my entire life six weeks before senior year, Mom's new husband, Gabe Owens, comes with baggage. <br />A sweet stepsister, Amelia. <br />And the b*stard of all b*stards, Rourke. <br />Rourke is my age and doesn’t want me in his town, much less his home. He's also hell bent on making sure I know it.<br />Thing is, I don’t want to be there either, and if Rourke Owens expects me to swan in and kiss his ass to make him like me, then he has another thing coming. <br />I'm nobody's bitch and he's about to learn that.<br /><br />WARNING: Due to its explicit content, bad language, and graphic sexual content, Endgame is recommended for mature readers of seventeen years and above.
