Hopeium (Messy Business of Love Book 1)
“The hope of something better can ruin the chance for something amazing.”
Isabella Monroe is living her best life, doing whatever it takes to achieve her dreams while struggling to pass this semester. It’d be a helluva lot easier if her life wasn’t imploding thanks to her ex-boyfriend punishing her betrayal by leaking her secrets and intimate photos across the internet…
When his revenge campaign hits campus, she realizes she either has to intervene or drop out.
One night where nothing goes wrong. Is that too much to ask for?
Dion Johnson arrives in LA for one last epic week with his best bros before graduation. A spring break full of sightseeing, drunk nights, and one-night-stands is the goal. Then Dion sees Isabella and, suddenly, pursuing anyone else just seems pointless. All he needs is an in. And as he’s devising a smooth introduction, he witnesses a moment that ruins her night.
A spilled tray of loaded nachos and a bold act of kindness spurs a passionate fling with the potential to become so much more—or at least it might if living on opposite coasts and Isabella’s commitment-phobia weren’t major obstacles…
Detachment (Messy Business of Love Book 2)
“Love can heal the broken. Secrets can destroy everyone…”
Kylie Dulaney grew up in a toxic home where emotional detachment became her go-to coping mechanism to survive life with a violent, alcoholic father. Now that she’s become her husband’s verbal punching bag, Kylie finds herself swimming against a current of depression and anxiety. The only way to keep from drowning might be to once again shut down…
In the days after his mother’s passing, Marcus Jones closed himself off, quit his job, and poured everything into his writing to keep from spiraling out. After the success that he’d always dreamed of comes to fruition, Marcus hires his friend Kylie to rescue her from corporate misery.
Unexpectedly, working long hours together ends up being exactly what Kylie and Marcus need to find relief from mental anguish. As their connection deepens and their relationship tests boundaries, secrets old and new threaten to ruin everything…
