Along Comes Trouble (Brookside Romance #4)

From the moment we met, Tessa Morgan pegged me as trouble. Why? Your guess is as good as mine. I’m funny. Easy-going. My years as a high school football star worked wonders on my body as well as my reputation. I’m Colton Carmichael. Everyone likes me.

Everyone except Tessa.

And believe me, the feeling is mutual.

Every time we run into each other, there’s an explosion to rival any fireworks display out there. We couldn’t be more opposite if we tried, but chance keeps pushing us together. Before long, those explosions of anger turn into…something else. Everyone I know loves Tessa, and the more I get to know her, the more I understand why.

She challenges me to become a better version of myself while I teach her to loosen her death grip on the rules.

Love was never supposed to be part of my vocabulary, much less the house with the picket fence, or kids running around the yard. Not for this rolling stone. The way Tessa and I see our futures is as different as we are. We're headed in opposite directions as our relationship stretches out between us, a rubber band pulled taut and thin.

So now what? For the first time since high school, I look at the future with hope instead of indignation. I can’t stand the idea of being without her, but how long can you ignore a freight train coming straight at you when you’re standing on the tracks?

Along Comes Trouble is a standalone, enemies to lovers romance.
