**This is a PREQUEL to The Consequence of Falling, which will be released on Amazon (only free with Kindle Unlimited) in December ** Presley Rose has it all - the money, the clothes, the popularity, but she's unhappy and feels like she's missing something. Nathaniel Bradley has nothing - no money, an unstable life at home, and not the kind of popularity he wants. To escape all of that, he works hard. An unlikely meeting sets them on the same path, but this isn't your typical boy-meets-girl, boy falls for girl romance. No, because Presley and Nathaniel definitely do not love each other. They don't even like each other. In fact, they cannot stand each other. But you know what they say about love and hate . . .

THE OFFER is a STANDALONE adult contemporary romance and a spin-off of the New York Times, Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling novel, THE PACT. You don't need to read The Pact to read The Offer. A few chapters of THE OFFER will be uploaded to WattPad as a preview for those interested in purchasing the book when it releases in June. The whole book will NOT be on WattPad, HOWEVER, I will have the first two books of my paranormal suspense series, Experiment in Terror, up on Wattpad over the next month or so, as well as some (don't laugh) X-men fanfiction I wrote when I was 19 years old. How about that for variety? THE OFFER: Nicola Price used to have it all – a great career, the perfect boyfriend, an excessive shoe collection and an apartment in one of San Francisco’s best neighborhoods. But when she gets knocked up and her asshat boyfriend leaves her high and dry, Nicola’s perfectly crafted world comes tumbling down. And stays that way. Now, Nicola is the proud single mom to a five-year old daughter and living a giant lie. She can barely afford their ghetto apartment and all the men she dates run when they hear she comes with a child. She’s struggling and scared – and nowhere near where she thought she’d be at age thirty-one. Her saving grace comes in the form of a tall, handsome and wealthy Scotsman Bram McGregor, the older brother of her friend Linden. Bram understands a thing or two about pride, so when tragic circumstances place Nicola at rock bottom, he offers them a place to live in the apartment complex he owns. It’s pretty much the perfect deal, so as long as she doesn’t mind living beside Bram, a man that, despite his generosity, seems to antagonize her at every turn. But nothing in life is free and as Nicola gets her feet back on the ground, she discovers that the enigmatic playboy may end up costing her more than she thought. She might just lose her heart.

"My obsession with this story rivals my addiction to Starbucks." - Katie Ross They were inseparable, their love was fierce, their loyalty unwavering... or so they thought... Torn Hearts follows Mia and Jensen's story in the beginning. Like many of our own stories, theirs is not complete. Once I am finished posting this prequel, I will give you the title of Mia and Jensen's full length, standalone story, along with a release date for it. *NOTE: THIS STORY CONTAINS SEXUAL SITUATIONS. You don't need to read Kaleidoscope Hearts in order to enjoy this story, as you do not need to read this story in order to enjoy Mia and Jensen's standalone either. This is just a glimpse to their past. **This has NOT BEEN EDITED. At all.
