Dear Jerk Across the Street, sorry for accidentally walking in on you and catching an eyeful of your-equipment. And hard pass on the open invitation to join you in the shower "anytime", A-hole. That's the note I should've written. Instead I sent a pleasant and apologetic version. Had I known Phoenix "Nix" Russo would've been the neighbor from hell, I'd have told him right where he could shove my words. Nix is the big man on campus with everyone lined up at his games to make sure he knows it. Sure, he's got piercing blue eyes, abs that don't quit and a smile that could set fire to a set of panties from a hundred yards away, but he's also the biggest pain in my ass. Dear Pink-Haired Menace, learn how to take a joke and stop being such a kill-joy... Elle Masterson called the cops on one of my parties-again. My sweet talking usually gets me out of trouble, but this time it got me into a nice pair of silver handcuffs. Now I'm on a reputation rehab tour with a stop at a spring break community service project. Guess who's my new boss? Now we're shoulder to shoulder, sweaty, tired and...she's not anything like I expected. There might just be a heart under that hardass exterior. She's invading my dreams and I can't shake the feeling she's the key to unlocking a piece of me that I've hidden away. It's only a matter of time until she finds out why I'm really here. Maybe I can break through her walls and into her heart before that happens...one screw at a time. ***The Second We Met is a standalone new adult romance***

With another chance at love, what could possibly go wrong? Recovering from heartbreak, unlucky-in-love events manager Cara has vowed to avoid relationships. That is until fate throws her into the path of handsome and kind Henry, who is worlds apart from the men she's dated before. Unfortunately, this encounter is short-lived when Cara misses her coach home--and with it, any chance of seeing him again. But fate is not finished with the mismatched couple. When Cara quite literally bumps into Henry a second time at a work event, the run-in leaves them with feelings instead of bruises, and they can't wait another day before seeing each other again. Yet it soon becomes clear how deeply different their worlds are: Cara's drama-filled African and Caribbean family couldn't be further from Henry's family of wealthy lords and ladies. With interfering relatives, problem friends, and an inconvenient ex-boyfriend attempting a comeback, everything seems stacked against the two new lovebirds. This is no straightforward love story--Cara and Henry will have to get creative with romance if they stand any chance of beating the odds to win their happy ever after. The Second Time We Met is a hilarious and heartwarming romance, perfect for anyone who believes in second chances.

What if you already met the soul mate you were destined to be with? And you didn't even know it? After losing her best friend to cancer, Corinne's life is in flux. She has moved back to Chicago, is considering her next career move (or temp job), and has absolutely no time to look for love--until a mysterious dating app called Met suddenly appears on her phone, and with it, an invitation for Corinne to reconnect with four missed connections from her past. One of them, Met says, is her soul mate... Corinne doesn't believe the app for a second, but when she very quickly finds herself with back-to-back blasts from the past, she'll have to consider if maybe she's wrong about it. The thing is, Corinne's also been introduced to a really great guy outside the app's influence. As their feelings for each other grow, Corinne has to wonder: With her apparent true love still out there, should she tap yes to the next match? With help from a new group of friends, her loving if annoying family, and maybe a touch of fate, can Corinne come to terms with the loss she's still reeling from, take control of her career, and find love along the way?
