Evangeline Patel had a rule: matchmaking was business, not personal. She prided herself on keeping it that way. Love wasn't a mystery to her; it was a carefully calibrated algorithm of compatibility, shared goals, and communication styles. And she was the undisputed queen of cracking the code.
So when her sister Meera cornered her one Sunday afternoon with an urgent plea, Evangeline hesitated.
"His name's Ethan Walsh," Meera said, showing Evangeline a photo on her phone. The guy in the picture had a boyish grin and messy brown hair that looked like it had never met a comb.
Evangeline raised an eyebrow. "You want me to matchmake...him?"
"Yes," Meera said. "He's my coworker and friend. He's smart, funny, and, believe it or not, actually looking for something serious. He just-well, he's not great at the whole dating thing."
"And I'm supposed to fix that?"
Meera leaned forward, hands clasped. "Please, Evangeline. You're the best at this. He deserves a shot."
Evangeline sighed. "Fine. But if he's late to the meeting, I'm out."

Moonlight Kisses
"Why are you doing that!" she whisper-screams while her eyes flit to the other guys, who are now immersed in something else that isn't us. I kiss that spot again, making her whole body shiver. It's oddly entertaining to watch what my slightest movements do to her. Usually it takes a lot more for a girl to unravel this way, but her breath hitches each time I go to kiss her neck. I could only imagine what my hands could do to her body. "You still didn't answer my question," she huffs harshly. And still she hasn't pulled away from me. Had I been any stupider, I'd say Jordyn was actually enjoying herself. If she hates this so badly, why hasn't she asked me to stop? [] In August, Jordyn Reeve starts attending Crestview Prep and not long after strikes a deal with Beau Clemonte, an arrogant, rude boy who happens to be the thing that can give her what she wants: his best friend, Jake Amherst. Of course, everything worthwhile must come with a price. Despite her outright opinions, Jordyn makes a deal with the devil. Or at least that's what that's what she saw at first -- a coldhearted, stubborn asshole that cared even less than she did. Her only intention was to see this out to get the guy. However, it wasn't that simple for Beau. Cover created by: @meha-k Started October 2020 Completed January 2022Complete
