[LGBTQ+ New Adult Fiction] On the evening of October 8th, violinist and college student Noel Miller is murdered in a mysterious explosion. The primary suspect? Her girlfriend and fellow music student, Riley Davis, who was the first on the scene of the crime. Additional suspects include third-year soccer star, Lucia (Lucy) Peterson, who had a heated argument with Noel on the day of her death and currently has no evidence to prove where she was at the time of the murder. These are the details that junior criminal justice major, Piper Watson, is given when assigned by her professor to look for an alibi for Lucy in order to prove her innocence. In her quest to help Lucy, Piper makes a deal with the soccer player. Piper will help Lucy prove her innocence, and in exchange, Lucy, a well-known lesbian, will give Piper advice on how to win over her roommate she's been secretly in love with for half a year. All the while, a spinning mystery unfolds as to who was truly responsible for murdering Noel Miller, and why, on that fateful October evening. (Published: 2021)

[Formerly known as 'Trinkets'] Mahika and Amoli can't stand each other, but that's not the only thing they have in common. Mahika treats Amoli like she's childish. Amoli thinks Mahika is a stuck-up prude. But Mahika's best friend and Amoli's brother are getting married, so they can't ignore each other forever. If that wasn't the case, they wouldn't even acknowledge each other's existence. Right? Wrong. What meets the eye isn't all there is, is it? Throw a big fat Indian wedding, some alcohol, and a dimly lit hotel room together, and you'll find out, too. Because Mahika and Amoli certainly do.
