Madoc and Fallon. Two estranged teenagers playing games that push the boundaries between love and war . . . 
She's back. For the three years she's been away at boarding school, there was no word from her. Back when we lived in the same house, she used to cut me down during the day and then leave her door open for me at night.
I was stupid then, but now I'm ready to beat her at her own game . . .
I'm back.
Three years and I can tell he still wants me, even if he acts like he's better than me.
But I won't be scared away. Or pushed down. I'll call his bluff and fight back. That's what he wants, right? As long as I keep my guard up, he'll never know how much he affects me . . .

'I read this book in one sitting. Rival was as gripping as it was sexy!' - Colleen Hoover 
Quote from Penelope Douglas:
Bully was my love. Until You was my responsibility. Rival was my pleasure. But Falling Away was my destiny. Every whisper, every breath, every kiss, and every word came from my gut. This is the book I'm most proud of.

Falling Away (Fall Away)

This is Jared's story . . . 
Have you ever been so angry that hitting things felt good? Or numb to all emotions? The past few years have been like that for me. Traveling between fury and indifference with no stops in between. Some people hate me for it, while others are scared of me. But none of them can hurt me, because I don't care about anything or anyone. 
Except Tatum. 
I love her so much that I hate her. I hate that I can't let her go. We used to be friends, but I found out that I couldn't trust her or anyone else. So I hurt her. I pushed her away. But I still need her. She centers me. Engaging, challenging, bullying her-it's the last part of me that feels anything human. 
But then she went and screwed everything up. She left for a year and came back a different girl. Now, when I push, she pushes back.

Meeting Tyler Marek for the first time makes it easy for Easton to see why his son is having trouble in school. The man knows how to manage businesses and wealth, not a living, breathing teenage boy.

Wanting him is taboo. Needing him is undeniable. And his long-awaited touch will weaken Easton's resolve - and reveal what should stay hidden...

Genre Fiction

Together in one volume for the first time, New York Times bestseller Penelope Douglas's two bestselling novellas in the Fall Away Series, full of intense emotion and smoking-hot passion... AflameTatum Brandt finally has everything she wants. Acceptance to medical school, a circle of friends she would never replace, and contentment that every day is now hers. All through high school, Jared Trent called the shots. He decided if she would be happy or sad, fearful or free. He owned her heart, and he played with it like one of his cars. Never again. Two years ago, Jared left town, and Tate's life is exactly where she wants it to be. Or that's what she tells herself... Because two years ago, her heart also stopped beating, and no matter the success in school or the support of her friends, there's only one time every week she can feel that same rush in her blood: Friday nights on the track. That's hers, not his, and to hell with anyone that gets in her way again. Especially him. Next to Never Under the close watch of the men in her family, Quinn Caruthers has found it nearly impossible to spread her wings--or even date--without her three older brothers, Jared, Madoc, and Jaxon, jumping in to hover. And when a family friend--several years older--from her childhood still holds her heart, she knows they're going to be a problem. Lucas Morrow is a man, and knowing her brothers, he may as well be forbidden. But years ago, Lucas left town and shows no signs of returning. Quinn knows she shouldn't wait for him anymore. Until a package turns up on her doorstep with no return address and its contents reveal family secrets that threaten to turn her world upside down. She's never asked about the path of her parents' romantic history, but she soon learns their happy marriage had a very rocky and passionate start. As she starts to see things around her with new eyes, Quinn will have to make tough choices about whether she'll keep waiting...or finally go after what she really wants. *Please note: The Next Flame is not a new story. It is Aflame and Next to Never together in one book. For those readers who desired paperbacks of Aflame to complete their collections, this is it.
