Two very different girls fall for two very different guys in a double romance about love and money. What happens when a corporate city girl falls for a musician, and a free-spirited hippie can't resist the charms of a successful businessman? Both women will have to face their pasts to overcome their differences and find true love. Lexi is a driven businesswoman living a high-flying corporate life in Sydney, Australia, who has her eyes on one thing only: a promotion. When a chance encounter has her suddenly housing Otis, a homeless but handsome musician, she can't help but feel that she might be able to make room for one more thing in her life - someone to love. Meanwhile, Sparrow is a beach-dwelling, spiritual hippie who lives her life in the moment, not bound by money or modern society. But because of her past, she's afraid to love again. When Thomas, a kind-hearted businessman begins to slowly break her walls down, can she forget everything she's left behind? Both Lexi and Sparrow fall hard into whirlwind romances with the very different men they've chosen, and tensions rise as they are forced to make hard choices about money, love, and themselves.

Post grad doesn't always go as planned. For Josalee, David, Ingrid, and Victor, the line between loyalty and fragility is blurred. Josalee wasn't supposed to fall in love with her gay best friend David-and she definitely didn't mean to have a one-night stand with him. Before she can separate her feelings from reality, they each discover a secret so big, it could kill them both. Ingrid can't seem to hold down a job. When she loses her second position in five months, she is stripped of more than just financial security. Even worse, she has no idea that her boyfriend Victor has been unfaithful-more than once. When a crushing loss and the economy threaten everything the four friends have worked for, they must fight for their own kind of happily ever after. AUTHOR'S NOTE: The following is an excerpt.

'You didn't answer my question,' he asked, holding her gaze in his hypnotic ones. 'Wh... what question?' She was surprised at her own voice, it sounded like of someone else's. She wanted to ask him--which question, there were so many he had asked her tonight. Each one threatening in their own different ways to her sanity. Brandan smiled mysteriously.

And then...
