Termination Dust — Tori Minard

He lives one block away in a different world. When notorious bad boy Dex Morgan rescues innocent Cass from a bully, she's stunned speechless. Why would a dangerous thug, a guy only interested in scoring sex and drugs, go out of his way to help a straitlaced girl like her? But as she gets to know him, she discovers a completely different Dex from his image. He's smarter, sexier, and far more dangerous than she'd ever imagined. He makes her want to throw away her good girl reputation forever. Dex longs for Cass, but he knows there's no place in his messed-up life for a sweet girl like her. Yet he can't stay away from her no matter how bad they are for each other. But when their worlds clash and Cass is forced to face the seedier side of Dex's life, their love is shaken to its foundations. Will they prevail over disillusionment and separation or is Dex just Cass's walk on the wild side? Termination Dust is a complete novel with no cliffhangers. 110,000 words
