Jasmine Sorello is a single 30 year old successful New Yorker who likes to think she has it all together.  Even if she is okay with her  casual hook ups and independence, her family and close friends seem to think otherwise. With their crazy antics like setting her up on blind dates and overbearing Italian mother always talking about her non existent grandchildren, Jasmine is just fed up with others around her trying to control her life.  She made a promise to herself a decade ago and refuses to go back on it, but when a powerful force takes Jasmine's fate and turns her life upside down and back 25 years earlier will time be the only thing to cause her to break that promise to herself.
Dean Cameron lived a pretty private life. His James Dean rebel without a cause looks got him plenty of attention from woman.  He never had the need to settle down but had no shortages in one night stands.  His life was pretty routine until one night finding a lifeless body in a park.  After that night his life would be turned upside down forever.  Trying to be a Good Samaritan he was just going to drop this stranger off at the hospital and take off not wanting to get involved in any drama.  His plan almost goes accordingly until that stranger opened her doll shape eyes and looked directly into his and that is when a complete force went through his body almost as if those eyes have some kind of power over him.  He finds himself doing crazy things that he would never do like opening up his apartment to this crazy chick that insist she is a woman from the future. Even though she doesn't seem to appreciate anything  he does and seems out of  her mind he can't seem to get her out of his mind.........

This book has everything! If you miss and loved the 80's you will enjoy going down memory lane with references to great songs and fashion from that era. Great descriptions of places in New York City and of course my favorite baseball team. You will laugh, cry and everything in between....

Featured on @Romance, @Ambassadors, and @humor, @ChickLit Cover art by the fabulous @LNRoberts1. It's 2019 and university student, Olivia O'Shea, doesn't possess the luck of the Irish as her name might suggest. Instead, she's feeling like she might just be the unluckiest girl on the planet. Her high school sweetheart, Daniel Burns, whom she continued to date in college, was found with his fingers, and a few other more salacious body parts in someone else's cookie jar. Now it's summer vacation and Olivia is back in her hometown licking her wounds and trying to forget it all. At their old high school's international food festival, Olivia runs into Daniel with his new girlfriend, and a storm is definitely brewing. But this storm is a real one with thunder, lightning and rain, and Olivia, caught out in the open, is suddenly struck by lightning. She wakes up in the high school infirmary only to find that she's been transported back to high school with the chance to do it all over again. Olivia is determined to ditch Daniel, in spite of his stubborn advances, and instead tries to rekindle an old flame with the shy introverted Jack Garcia, with whom she'd shared one very spectacular kiss back in high school. As Olivia attempts to pursue Jack, Daniel keeps getting in the way and frustrating her plans. Can she really change her future for the better, or is history only meant to repeat itself? If you liked the iconic 1980s rom-com Peggy Sue Got Married, then you'll love this modern retelling of the classic, time-travel, do-over, second chance at love.

#1 Steamy on October 13, 2018-October 18, 2018 #2 Steamy September 25, 2018 Sena Mcginley was a beautiful child. Her dark blonde hair always had wavy curls and she had sapphire eyes that looked like they were made of glitter. She was smart, fun and a little on the wild side during her childhood. She had a lot of friends which included Jennifer and Bethany. These two girls were as much fun as Sena and were equally as beautiful. They were special to Sena but neither was her best friend. That honor belonged to Grant Dalton. Her best friend since first grade. He was quiet and reserved but popular as the school quarterback. He didn't get into the drinking and partying as much as his teammates. Girls fell to his feet and that was his favorite part of high school. He had dirty blond hair, light blue eyes, his eyelashes so long he looked like he wore eyeliner. His six foot three-inch frame towered over Sena at five foot five. The two met when Jake pushed Sena off the swings. Grant rushed over and pushed Jake down and helped Sena back on the swing. From that day forward he was her protector and best friend. He had a habit of sneaking into Senas room at night and the two spent hours talking and laughing. She would give him advice about girls and he, of course never approved of her dating anyone. She was too perfect to trust any guy alone with her and this irritated Sena. What happens when the two are separated by college and the military? What happens when she returns to his life for all the wrong reasons? https://w.tt/2yJYTwm Edited by @hannahbananalc Copyright © 2020 by Grace Madden All Rights Reserved.
The Moving Times Of Caroline Proudly by CarolineProudly
20 parts Complete
Caroline is 16 when she suddenly decides that her perfectly normal and loving home life is absolutely and completely intolerable. Suddenly moving out of home in 1988 is the beginning of a 13 year journey. As the journey continues, the passage of time has no significance. Always with the ability to find the humorous side, each address marks another chapter in Caroline's life and is the backdrop for the people she meets and the events that occur. Accommodation varies from unheated rooms and houses with wheel-less cars jacked-up outside to Regency flats and rural cottages. Transportation means vary from a single use bicycle, to Betsa and the faithful Dwanetta. Flatmates vary from a lovely Brummie and a singing nun to a dying dog, a ginger laminator, a 3 nippled geek and an accidental spell with a local drugs baron. Events vary from harbouring boarding schoolgirls, exercising racehorses, the occasional rave, trading in shampoo and marmite on toast to looking for stolen laundry, going undercover and self-defence with a hockey stick. Jobs vary from not having one to shop work, bartending and au pair through to getting a toe on the corporate ladder. There is infatuation, and love from various sources so there is also disappointment, and breakups by varying means and for various reasons. Education varies from a bit of formal study to a large dollop of the University of Life. The latter being the real reason Caroline left home in the first place - to grow up in her own way through her own experiences with no-one else to blame but herself and the interesting hand that life deals along the way. Caroline moves home 19 times, only to find that the 20th move takes her to the last place she ever expected to be. Back where she started. Things aren't always as they seem...
Year of the Chick (book 1 in the "Year of the Chick" series) by romimoondi
31 parts Complete
[NOTE: This book was written in 2010, a time of long-distance phone cards, weight-loss obsessions, and searching for a man as a solution to life's problems-what a messy time to be alive! In other words, I hope you enjoy this throwback, and while this book does end on a cliffhanger of sorts, the sequel addresses any unanswered questions (which is hopefully fair, given that book 1 is free, ya know?] An awkward family homecoming at Christmas. A humiliating public weigh-in, with two judging parents as the audience. The announcement of a deadline for arranged marriage doom. And that's just the first two chapters. In "Year of the Chick," Romi Narindra must find love before her parents find her a husband. Easy to say, less easy to live through, as this book takes you deep inside "awkward Indian living in the West." To escape her fate, Romi wades through the waters of secret-dating, where self-consciousness is at an all-time high, and experience at an all-time low. It's the sort of thing that would turn almost anyone into a man-crazy freak with romance tunnel-vision, and that's exactly what ends up happening. All the while, a lack of inspiration in her corporate job leads Romi to her love of writing, in what quickly becomes a man-quest play-by-play. From whiskey-breath scum bags to uni-brow creeps and everything in between, Romi and her wingmen come up empty time after time. And that's when she meets a fellow writer. On the Internet. So will it be arranged marriage doom, or an Internet affair that's not as creepy as "To Catch a Predator"? Time will tell in the "year of the chick," a twelve-month quest to find love. Tick-tock. --------------------------------------------- "Year of the Chick" is book one of a series, and book two is available at Amazon! LENGTH: 75,000 words or 285 pages DISCLAIMER: this book contains profanities, blunt accounts of the dating scene, and many awkward family moments. Enjoy!
