This box set contains the duet, The Stillness of You & The Chaos in Me. THE STILLNESS OF YOU Ben Lancaster had just tattooed himself onto my soul, and the thing about tattoos? They’re painful to remove. Bad girl, Georgia King, is trying to survive after spiraling into a darkness that nearly took her life. With her college dreams on hold, she’s trying to get healthy and still the craziness inside her. She has no room for someone like Ben Lancaster, and if he were smart, he’d stay away. Because everyone knows Georgia is bad news–she ruins people–and if Ben isn’t careful, he’ll be next in line. Ben Lancaster is a young, hotshot hockey player on his way to the top. Newly signed to the Philadelphia Flyers, he’s living the dream. The girls. The money. The fame. He thought he had everything he wanted until he met Georgia. Suddenly, he wants more–he wants her. He’ll do whatever it takes to get her, and Ben Lancaster always gets what he wants. But the girl who’s different from anyone he’s ever known is hiding secrets. And as the dog days of summer pass, only time will tell if Georgia’s secrets can be healed. Or if her bruised soul is strong enough to resist Ben Lancaster… THE CHAOS IN ME The conclusion to Ben and Georgia’s story It’s been almost a year since Georgia King let Ben Lancaster walk out of her life, and a lot of things have changed. She’s had a year to mature. A year to come to terms with who and what she is—the good and the bad. And in that year, she realized that the biggest mistake she ever made was letting Ben go. Ben, the man she still loves. The man whose heart she broke. The man she wants back… Ben Lancaster swore he’d never tangle with love again. After a blistering affair gone wrong, he’s decided it’s not worth it. The hotshot new face of the Philadelphia Flyers has everything any man could want. Money. Fame. Women. Except the one woman he doesn’t want is the one woman he can’t forget. The one woman who suddenly appears in his life once more. Georgia King. As the two former lovers navigate a hazy summer in Philadelphia, the one question both of them can’t ignore is… After it all falls apart, is there still a chance for love?
