From ashes

the long version

Aside from her dad, Cassidy has only ever trusted one man: her best friend, Tyler. So of course she follows him to Texas when he leaves for college. She just didn't expect to be so drawn to their new roommate, Gage, a gorgeous guy with a husky Southern drawl. The only problem? He's Tyler's cousin. And there's something about Cassi that makes Gage want to give her everything. Too bad Tyler has warned him that she's strictly off-limits. When disaster sends Cassi running into Tyler's arms, she will have to decide whether to face the demons of her past, or burn her chance at a future with Gage.
