The Crush by C.A Williams

The Crush by C.A Williams

This story of Grier and Wynn starts of not really a story about them; but about Wynn trying to heal from the betrayal that she suffered at the hands of her stepfather.

Wynn was a 17 year old female living in Michigan with her mother and stepfather, well the only father she has known since she was 3 (she lost her real dad to a car accident back in her mom’s hometown of Bay Shore). The betrayal her mother felt and the sickening feeling she felt would forever haunt them. After that one day she can’t seem to forget she moves to Bay shore AL with her mom to live with her Grams, Aunt Gracie and her cousin Collins. Her senior year of school was to be spent getting to know new people and trying to forget that unforgivable tragedy.

Grier Daniels was the star quarterback at Bay Shore high school. He was also the boyfriend of the head cheerleader Lexie. The ice queen of Bay Shore; she loved the attention that being the most popular girl & dating the star football player brought. The first day Grier ran into Wynn along with his best friend Vance, he knew there was something special about her. She was nothing like Lexie, but he couldn't act on those feelings, couldn't betray the girl he had spent the last 2 years with. But being “comfortable” with someone for the last 2 years doesn't necessarily make a happily ever after… or does it?

When their friendship starts to blossom Wynn finds out a secret about Lexie that could tear Grier apart; but does she risk telling him and loose his friendship and have rumors spread about her by Lexie or does she stand by and watch her new found best friend give his life over to the rich little girl who believes that everything should be given to her and she shouldn't have to work for anything. What does the ice queen do that shocks Wynn?? What about her stepfather? What ever happened to him?? Guess you’ll have to read to find out.

Full Count By C.A Williams

I really enjoyed this book..... Oh Dylan Turner, just oh so dirty lol.....

“I didn’t know this is how love could really feel until I met you.”

The typical “man whore/bad boy” Dylan Turner was use to girls falling at his feet and doing whatever he wanted… What he didn't expect was for his world to do a 360 when he met Paige Brinton.
When Paige decided to head off to college her dad as well as her long time best friend Jake thought she would be attending the University of Florida, not in a million years did they expect she would he out to USC (University of South Carolina) for school. Jake was Paige’s’ best friend since she was a little girl, she lost her mom at 10 years old and for a very long time it has been her and her dad. But Paige needed to spread her wings, Jake had always put his life on hold for her, had always been her protector and she wanted to the space to explore and learn new things; she thought the space would be good for Jake as well, he could start to live, find a girlfriend and experience all the things he didn't get to because of her.

Dylan Turner was one of the top baseball players at USC (the next best thing heading for the major league), he was best friends with Christopher (chris) Chapman who just happened to be the brother of Paige’s roommate Katherine (Kitty) Chapman. He was a part of the Chapman family; ever since Chris took him home for the holidays that first year at school they family accepted him as one of their own. Dylan was abandoned by his mother as a baby and bounced from foster home to foster home his whole life…. The only thing in his life that was stable was the fact that he would always fall back on baseball, no matter how much he moved he would always find he felt at home on the school’s baseball team.

When Paige and Dylan’s worlds collided they never expected it to be like this….. Should Paige stay away from the obvious bad boy and stick to safe and predictable? How about her best friend?? Her dad has always thought he was in love with her; could he actually be speaking words of wisdom?? Should Dylan risk hurting Kitty (his sister in a sense) by going after her roommate; the girl that wasn't quite his type but just made him feel all kinds of weird things? Or should he stick to his routine of loveless trysts and guarding his heart??? The surprise in the end will definitely throw you for a loop… Don’t think you’d want to miss it.
