Good Hurt
Good Hurt
Book 1
Addison Blaise is an addict, but not in the way you might think.
In two months, Addison will leave her sick mother behind, fly across the country, and pretend to be a normal college freshman.
Her parents and older brother went to Harvard; now it’s her turn. Go to Harvard, major in BioChem, become a world-renowned researcher, cure cancer… It was her dream. But that was three years ago, before the incident and before pain, anxiety, and fear ripped her mind apart. Now, faced with the reality of living on her own, thousands of miles away from the safety of her home, that dream is terrifying.
No, Addison certainly didn’t need any more pain, but that didn’t stop her from wanting it all the same. She didn’t ask to fall for him, but something about her older brother’s friend, Asher Aves, was impossible to resist. Was it lust? Was it love? When would enough be enough?
Try as she might to stop herself, when the hurt is this good, it’s never enough.
Splinter
Book 2
After an explosive and unexpected breakup with Asher on the eve of his study abroad departure, Addison starts her second semester at Harvard desperate to overcome the pain Asher caused when he ripped her world apart. Determined to prove to herself that she’s over him, Addison opens her heart to new love interests only to hopelessly suffer through a sequence of devastating and dangerous lovers.
And despite Asher’s best efforts to focus on his personal ambition of launching his startup, he’s unable to shed his controlling ways and continues to monitor Addison from overseas in the name of her protection.
Splinter, the second book of the Good Hurt series, pulls both Addison and Asher down into the darkness, where demons from past traumas rear their ugly heads. Heartbroken but determined to win her back, will Asher reunite with the love of his life? And even if he does, will she take him back?
Salvation
Book 3
Following a ruinous crash reunion that leaves him gutted, Asher decides he will stop at nothing to win back Addison’s love. But this time, Addison refuses to let Asher back into her heart, rebuffing his controlling ways despite desperately craving his intoxicating dominance. With new career opportunities on the horizon, Addison and Asher struggle to navigate the pull of their own ambitions amidst the fallout of their failed relationship.
When a scorned ex-lover turns deadly, Addison spurns Asher’s help and instead lets the unresolved pain of her childhood trauma consume her mind. But if anyone gets to break Addison apart and piece her back together, it’s Asher, and this morally grey alpha is never letting go.
The only question is, will he be able to save her before it’s too late?
In Salvation, the third and final book of the Good Hurt series, Addison wonders if her toxic relationship with Asher finally will come to a head? Will she resolve her inner demons and find peace at last? In her tumultuous and reckless world, Addison Blaise wonders what will bring her salvation. But perhaps the better question is not what, but who?
