Panem AU. Thirty-six girls will vie for the crown. But only one will hold Prince Peeta's heart. An Everlark love story inspired by Kiera Cass's Selection trilogy.

Modern AU. There are three types of people in Dawson, Texas: those who are trying to flee, those who embrace their small town fate, and the Mellarks. Mellark Ranch; largest cattle ranch South of Dallas, employer of ranch hand, Katniss Everdeen, and home of The Ohio State Buckeyes' running back, Peeta Mellark. And Peeta Mellark is coming back home today.

When she's sent off to her rich uncle's lake house for the summer, Katniss Everdeen doesn't know what to do with herself. Prim doesn't need her and their aunt is buying her more things than she's ever even dreamed of having. And then there is Peeta Mellark. Katniss definitely doesn't know what to do about him and all the new feelings he stirs up in her.

They've talked, occasionally. Exchanged a few words, a few glances sent in the other's direction when they didn't think they were looking— nothing much has changed. There's still a tense air that separates them.

His arms reach out, hands pressing against the wall either side of her head. He has her trapped—there's no hope of escape.

Sequel to 'Under the Setting Sun'. After a whirlwind summer romance, Katniss struggles to adjust to a new school and a new life in a new city. But now that Gale has followed her across the country and Peeta is living down the street, how will she decide who is right for her? Modern day A/U.
