Amantha loathes Jack Emory. Unfortunate then that she's landed up trapped in a bathroom with him at her sisters wedding.

Zoe Alves just landed the biggest gig of her career: whipping NBA star Zac Layne back into Playoffs shape. There's no way she's going to mess this up---least of all by falling for the Thunderbolts' Golden Boy and the sizzling looks he's shooting her way. Zac Layne has had a couple of hard knocks lately. After his seven-year relationship with his high school sweetheart went up in flames, a pesky shoulder injury keeps slowing him down. What he needs is a win---not a spunky physical therapist that adds to the distraction. The rules are simple: rehabilitate and move on. But when things heat up, they might just need a whole new game plan. ---------------- Tropes: basketball romance, girl boss

Jacob Maier looks hot on paper: An award-winning musician with famous friends and even more famous exes, he's both a tabloid favorite and a cautionary tale. The word in Hollywood is: if you're a female star on the rise, don't touch him with a ten-foot pole. YouTuber Alexis "Al" Hunter has heard her agent's warning and brushed it aside.

But just as she's about to leave, a guy walks in who has the women at the bar swooning like he's the protagonist in a steamy cologne commercial. And Al can't help but watch! Until he takes a seat at her table... -------- GRAVITY (named after the John Mayer song since he accidentally inspired this story too) is a romcom I made up in 2019 to cope with insomnia. I wasn't planning on ever writing it down but the story came back to me when I had a severe case of insomnia thanks to the 2020 Covid lockdown. Unlike the majority of my books, which are largely inspired by my own life, this story pays homage to my favorite celebrities, the digital age, and pop culture. I should be too old to get excited about stories like this, but some of us never grow old, so this one's for the eternally young. ;p Hope you enjoy!

When Latin singer Juan Peláez hires hyperrealism artist Lin Solavida to paint a mural in his home, he doesn't know what he's in for. Word around town is that Lin is a forty-something guy with a Quasimodo-like hunchback. But no one has ever actually seen the man. Their contract comes with specific instructions: Juan isn't allowed to enter the room while the artist is working in his house for the next two months. Straightforward. Doable. Until his accidental run-in with the mysterious artist. Here's the problem. A: SHE is gorgeous, witty, and crazy talented. And B: She has walls so high no one can climb them. Finding ways to entice Lina into wanting to spend time with him shouldn't be too hard for a charming, creative guy like him, right? Wrong. Every attempt backfires. He either upsets her, runs her over, or, you know, epically embarrasses himself in front of her. But every miserable failure also makes her laugh and teaches him something new about Lina. ----------------------------- Tropes: forced proximity, lone (she-)wolf, meet cute This is a feel-good rom-com that came to me after watching Disney's Encanto. 😅 Just that "We Don't Talk About Bruno" turned into "We Don't Talk About Lina."
