She'd die for love. He didn't believe in love. *** From reading The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood, to watching 10 Things I Hate About You, to listening to You are in Love by Taylor Swift, Emily Kingsley's life is a sum of moments she has spent after romance. Watching, reading, listening or daydreaming, romance has never failed to comfort this high school junior of 17 years of age. She has her own issues: self-sabotage, lack of focus in studying, randomly popping up acne and not loving the way she looked. But she could forget all that as long as she is reading about two people falling in love and finding their happily ever after. Emily wants a romance for herself too, and she knows just the person for it. Landon McArther, a senior in her school. According to Emily, Landon is handsome, sophisticated, well-spoken and unlike any of the immature boys of her class who didn't get her at all. Landon was everything Emily has always dreamed about and moreover he appreciates her for the person she is. But there's just a teeny-tiny problem. Landon McArther has a girlfriend. While that wasn't in Emily's bingo card, she hopes, prays, and longs for the day Landon will be single (because he is Emily's soulmate, and he has to be) and awaits her chance for romance. At the same time, her seatmate in chemistry, the rumored delinquent, grumpy asshole Nathan Callahan, makes fun of her romantic dreams. Can Emily ever find true love? Completed. A fun romcom that will make you scream and squeal and blush!

When Alana moves back to England and takes a job with a Premier League team, the last thing she's expecting is to be reunited with Garrett - her childhood friend and the star of the team who's suddenly very attractive. ... Once she's graduated university, Alana Clarke moves back to where she grew up for her first job as the social media manager for Wakefield FC. While the atmosphere initially seems less than ideal, thanks to a mildly annoying boss, things start looking up when she reconnects with one of the players, an old classmate of hers. Alana knows she isn't supposed to date within the club, but things start piling up in her life and this might just be the perfect distraction. Garrett Bancroft is at a career high. Despite Wakefield's iffy record, he's being scouted by other teams in the Prem - and a few across the globe. Everything is working out perfectly until public attention isn't the only thing he attracts and the club's new hire catches his eye. Although Garrett's performance last season yielded a number of personal records, his mental state was at an all-time low, so a good relationship may be just what he needs. As stated by the league, club staff are highly discouraged from dating players, but Alana can't seem to avoid Garrett's charm. However, hiding their relationship turns out to be a bigger challenge than expected. As Alana begins to make enemies within the club, gossip is leaked about Garrett, and nobody to back them up, the two worry they might just be getting ahead of themselves. Unless they can get someone in their corner, both of their careers might be in jeopardy. How much is too much to risk for love?

As their friendship grows, he confesses that he's never dated before and asks Amelie to be his relationship coach. Flattered as she is, she should say no.

How far would you go to protect the ones you love? A successful architect with a promising career in London, Brian's world spins out of control when the man he always saw as a second father betrays him in the most unexpected way. Left without closure, a year has passed and Brian is now more determined than ever to undo the harm done to the ones he loves most, his family. Even if that means riding the thin line between justice, revenge, and obsession... Immersed in his resolve, finding love again was the last thing on his mind. Until fate steps in and a chance encounter changes everything. Meeting Olivia again so unexpectedly, at his best friend's wedding, stirs up memories he had long ago put away. She'd been his first love, his kindred spirit - and the woman who left him without saying so much as a goodbye. Which doesn't make him want her less. He knows it, the moment she locks her deep green eyes on his. Even knowing it might be too late to repair what's been once broken, Brian refuses to lose her again and sets out to find a way back to her heart. But it's been more than ten years since their story was left unfinished. Will they get one last chance to make things right? Or will Brian learn that sometimes justice comes at too high a price? *** NOTE TO READERS: A full-length, standalone contemporary romance, Where the Stars Fall was previously published on Wattpad as Falling Home.
