Ink and ashes
When bad girls meet good girls, sparks fly... and sometimes they burn. Rowan Blackwood has ink in her veins and attitude in her soul. As the town's most sought-after tattoo artist, she's known for her wicked sense of humor, her leather jackets, and the fact that she doesn't let anyone too close - especially not small-town golden girls. Enter Harper Ellis - firefighter, local hero, and, unfortunately, Rowan's best friend's little sister. Harper's disciplined, clean-cut, and annoyingly perfect. She's spent years trying to prove herself in a male-dominated job, and she doesn't have time for Rowan's teasing or her infuriating smirks. But when Harper moves back home temporarily after a fire leaves her apartment unlivable - and ends up staying in the spare room next door to Rowan - the heat between them gets hard to ignore. Between late-night banter over beers, accidental hand brushes, and the kind of tension that could set off alarms, Harper starts realizing there's more to the tattooed troublemaker than meets the eye. And Rowan? She's discovering that maybe she doesn't have to keep everyone at arm's length - even if loving Harper might be the one risk she's never dared to take.Complete

Goodbye Heartbreak (Book Four)
This isn't your average meet-cute. In fact, it's not cute at all. Rowan Ward is a tattooed florist with a soft heart and a sharp tongue. He likes his solitude, craves his routines, and absolutely panics when his roommate announces he's moving to California. Past trauma makes change feel like a threat, and Rowan doesn't do well with being left behind. Piper Kerrigan is fresh off a fallout with her sorority sister, a college scandal that scorched her family ties, and a sudden eviction that leaves her scrambling for a new place to live. She's just trying to stay afloat while working for event-planning royalty Savannah Monroe Remington and pretending everything's fine. So when Rowan offers up his spare bedroom, Piper is... hesitant. Because it's Rowan. Mysterious. Moody. Tattooed in ways that should not be legal. But also Rowan is safe, gay (probably), and weirdly comforting. Two single roommates. One shared space. Zero romantic expectations. They bond over caffeine, sarcasm, and their mutual hatred of Valentine's Day. But when Piper misreads a key piece of Rowan's identity, what started as a safe arrangement quickly starts feeling like a threat, to her comfort, her rules, and her no-dating-roommates policy. Because this isn't a love story built on fate or convenience. This is an anti-meet-cute. And things are about to get very, very complicated.Complete
