A story of first love, innocence lost, and love for family. Strong & Wilde - PART I The hardest thing Cody Wilde ever had to do was keep the promise he made to his dying father-stay away from trouble. Growing up in a rural Texas town and being bullied by the sheriff's son made it nearly impossible to control the notorious Wilde temper. Only having his good friend, Cassie, and her family for support made the task bearable. Cassie Strong never understood why people picked on Cody. He was sweet, sexy, and had a silly side that he showed only to her. When tragedy strikes her family, it's Cody who is by her side and their friendship blossoms into something more. But when Cody's lifelong enemy threatens the one thing that could make him break his promise, will he risk losing Cassie or will he be strong enough to hold on to his father's last wish? Strong & Wilde - PART II Cody can't deny his growing feelings for childhood friend, Cassie. But with the threat from a lifelong enemy looming, Cody resolves to keep Cassie safe, even if it means sacrificing his own happiness. Troubled by Cody's aloofness, Cassie takes matters into her own hands, determined to win his heart. Unable to keep himself away from Cassie, Cody gives into his feelings, and the two become inseparable. Then, on one blistering summer day, Cody's fears come back to haunt him, but Cassie's the one to pay the price.
