Jeb’s Mate by Abigail Raines

I’ve always been a bad boy, but things have never been this bad before.
Now I’m running from something terrible, something I didn’t want to do and can never take back.
When I arrive in Washington, planning to hide out at the Tremblay estate where I used to visit my cousins, the Tremblay brothers, I pretend everything is fine.
Because nobody can know what I did when I can’t even look at myself in the mirror and every time I close my eyes, I taste my best friend’s blood.
But I didn’t count on the girl.
Shelly is hardly what I’d call my type.
She’s cute, sure. But she’s too shy, too smart, too…good.
The last thing I came here to do was to find love.
And the last thing I want to do is hurt someone so sweet.
But when passion takes us both by surprise, I know that love isn’t something that listens to reason.
