She didn't mean to flirt with the same man twice.
Talia owns a bakery, lives above it, and spends her days surviving heat waves, broken AC units, and a construction crew she did not ask for outside her shop.
Colby works construction. He's reserved, funny in a dry way, and very good at pretending he isn't thinking about the bakery owner who offered his crew water on the hottest day of the year.
At night, Talia logs on and talks to her closest online friend-the one who knows her sarcasm, her anxieties, and her tendency to overshare when she's tired. The one who texts back fast. The one who feels... familiar.
There's just one problem.
They're the same person.
A slow-burn romance built on near-misses, late-night messages, and the kind of tension that only exists when two people already know each other-without realizing it yet

Band On The Run
Keely Staub has grown up. At least that's what she thinks has happened. No longer a naive eighteen year old being introduced to a music industry that's equal parts grandeur and grime, she might even be considered a veteran. At just twenty six, she's lived almost too much of a life in the intervening years since she first came to New York. A great love and a great band, not to mention more than a few unsavoury addictions picked up along the way in the time honoured traditions of the rock stars before her. And she gave it all up - except the rock star part, of course. That was a different Keely Staub, a more innocent and wild one all at the same time. She's determined that person and all the things that came with her will stay in the past, and has a very clear path laid in front of her. A measured, smart, hopefully one day respected, path. The problem is the past refuses to remain the past.
