[Book 1 of the We Are One trilogy]
Before they were rock n' roll legends, they were campus legends.
It's back-to-school season, and a new cohort descends upon the University of Vermont, Casablanca. New friendships, new rivalries, new flames, and homework await - will the future Hottest Band in the World be able to handle it and rock the stage at graduation, or will the curtain fall early on these flaming youth?
Starry-eyed freshman Eric Carr has big dreams of becoming an illustrator/animator and even bigger hair. One thing's certain: he and his new roommate, Bruce Kulick, long to join a rock band someday. Two childhood best friends, Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley, deal with the stigma of being inner-city kids on a full-ride scholarship in wildly different ways, while long-suffering RAs Tommy Thayer and Vinnie Vincent struggle to balance their burning desire to cut loose and have fun with the wilder-than-fiction realities of responsibility.

No Second Chances
In order to go on holiday with their friends, mortal enemies Kai and Joey make a pact to be civilized with each other for the entire duration of the stay. Joey already thinks this is going to be the hardest thing she's ever had to do in her life...and then she learns that they have to share a room. Standalone in the Just One Kiss series *** When her friends decide to plan a group holiday for the summer, Joey Winters doesn't expect the one person she hates the most to be a part of the plan, and she certainly won't let being around Kai Rutherford affect her rules: never forgive, never forget, and never fall in love. Not only does she have to breathe the same air as him, she's expected to share a room - and a bed - with him too. Determined to make this work, Joey and Kai enter into a pact: they have to be civilized with each other all summer. If they don't, their friends will force them to stay in the creepy cabin included in their rental. Alone. Between passive aggressive compliments, late night arguments, and moments of confusing sincerity, Joey starts to wonder if she's had Kai wrong all along. And, just maybe, her friends will finally find out why she really hates him.Complete
The Aid
*MAJOR EDITS/REWRITE IN PROGRESS* Evie has dealt with her fair share of traumatic events, and she just wants to focus on college and her beloved paintbrushes and bass guitar. Harry is just beginning to deal with the most traumatic events of his life: cancer and the American healthcare system, respectively. The two fellow students meet on a bus when Harry notices a stranger following her, and he walks her home to make sure she's safe. Months later, when she learns about his diagnosis, Evie returns the favor in the only way that makes sense: by marrying him. It's meant to be just on paper. She's merely helping him out financially through her mom's health insurance plan. Neither of them expects this simple favor to come with growing worry that turns into a reluctant friendship, which then spirals completely out of control before either can stop it. But it does, and now they're dealing with it in their own unique ways: Evie ignores it, and Harry ignores her ignoring it. // TW: cancer, strong language, alcohol/underage drinking, mentions of substance abuse, mentions of physical abuse, sexual content
