Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He’s got everything she ever wanted. She’s got everything he’s always needed. But when it comes to giving in to love, he’s going to give her a run for her money. LILA A music contract. It’s all I’ve ever wanted. And when my best friend and I hear that Olivia Johns and Connor Wheating—country’s newest It couple—are on tour and taking auditions, we jump at the chance. When we arrive and have a run-in with an agent—and she offers me a contract on the spot!—I jump again. Then I find out there’s a catch. I have to pretend to date one of the guys on the tour. Help to rehabilitate his (very, very bad) reputation. Hold his hand, smile for the cameras. The usual. And that doesn’t sound like it should be hard. Until I find out that rock star is Rivers Shine. The music industry’s resident bad boy… and the guy I accidentally slept with on my first night on the tour. The guy I saw right through. And the guy I think I might already be in love with. He’s got everything. Brooding good looks, the most kissable lips I’ve ever seen, and a hard exterior hiding something a whole lot softer underneath. I don’t think he is who he says he is. And I want to figure out what’s really under that heartbreaking exterior. Regardless of whether it costs me the contract I want so badly. RIVERS Okay, I know how this all looks. Bad boy, good girl. Cue the photographers and their bylines. Get the feel-good story in place. My agent will finally get the redemption story she’s been looking for all these years. But I’ve got a problem with that scheme. First off, I never go along with anyone else’s plan. I’ve been around the business way too long to fall for every idea pitched at me, and I’m stubborn enough to know I can get my way if I demand it. And the second problem? Lila Potter. She’s a good girl stuck in a bad scheme. Sunshine and rainbows being thrown up against a wall of shadow. Pure love and down-home goodness that are way too pure for the likes of me. The truth is, I want her. I want all of that. Being around her feels like being wrapped in warm cashmere while someone whispers that I’m going to be okay. And after a lifetime of having to take care of myself, I could fall right into that. Let Lila save me and love me for the rest of my life. I could. But I know that would do to her. It would break her the same way it’s broken everyone else I’ve attached myself to. And I might be the music industry’s biggest heartbreaker, but when it comes to Lila… Okay, I’ll just say it. I love her too much to let her go down that way. I won’t allow it. No matter how much my heart wants to give in to her. Tattoos and Heartbreak is the first in the Lila and Rivers duo of the Trouble Next Door series, and promises a broken rock star, a girl who's too sweet for him, plenty of angst (and a little spice!), and a chance at the HEA neither of them knew they needed. Their story concludes with the next in the series, Guitars and Mistakes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rock star who doesn't know his own mind. A rising star who wants to save him. And a secret that will either save them... or tear them apart. RIVERS Lila Potter. Sunshine Girl. Rising star. And as of this week, my agent’s new favorite project—and one, I’ll add, that replaces her old favorite project, which was me. The agent—and for all I know, the record label and my publicist, too—have decided that I’m no longer worth their time. I’m too broken. Too dark. Too damaged. The sad thing is, they’re right. And Lila is a better option for all of them. She’s gorgeous and talented and sunny. The bright light to my darkness. The sunshine to my broken soul. And the only balm that can make me feel better. I’m in love with the girl and everything about her… but I also know that she’s too good for me. She’s too bright, too beautiful, and I’m willing to sell my entire life’s work to save her from anyone who might hurt her. Even if that someone is me. LILA Rivers Shine. Famous rockstar. Playboy. Angstiest musician around. And also a lost boy, not that anyone else has ever bothered to notice. But I saw it the first time I met him, even though he puts on a good show with his grunge, loud music, and ice-cold stares. I’ve never been able to stop seeing it. Rivers Shine is a good man who’s built a bad reputation just to keep himself protected from the world around him. He doesn’t want anyone seeing the real him, though he’s never told me why that is. The thing is, I do see the real him. I see the laughter. I see the wry sense of humor and the fact that he’d sell his own soul for the people he loves. I’ve even seen the teddy bear he doesn’t want anyone to know about. I also know he’s planning to sacrifice himself for the good of his band. And I’ll be damned if I’ll let him do that. Because I love him too much to allow it. Even if he’s the most dangerous—and possibly deadly—thing that’s ever happened to me. Guitars and Mistakes is the second in the Rivers and Lila duo of the Trouble Next Door series, and promises angsty rock stars, damaged heroes, and a girl who’s too stubborn to quit. HEA and heartbreak both guaranteed in this stunning conclusion to this duo! Watch for the next book in the Trouble Next Door series, Smoke and Mirrors, coming in fall 2024.

Book excerpt: "An affecting love story of two strangers finding each other at exactly the right moment." - Kirkus Reviews The tormented guitarist. The fearless security guard. The kiss that’s seen globally. The razor blade that threatens to end everything. Billy Nestor has everything he’s always wanted: a band, the best guitar skills, a creative edge like no other, a thick skin, and the chops to climb the charts. The one thing he’s missing is a supportive father. While his mom is his biggest fan, his father has chided him since the day he picked up an instrument, slating that the boy would never amount to anything unless he applied himself to something other than heavy metal. Michelle Parsons has seen the world through the eyes of the battlefield. She’s determined, tough as nails, and has enough brains and drive to get her anywhere she wants to go in the world. Until she gets shot in combat and has to take a backseat job as a security guard for a nothing band, and what’s worse, she gets the job after her dad calls on a friend for a favor. Despite the disappointment, she quickly learns that protecting a band is almost as exhilarating as dodging landmines behind enemy lines. In the band’s third month of touring as an opening act, the city that they play in is riddled with an unexpected, potentially life-threatening situation. Michelle has to put her life on the line once again, only this time, without her hard hat and camouflage. After getting the band on the stage safely, a certain band member seeks her out once the applause quiets, and a fast friendship evolves. Billy finds himself seeking Michelle out, escaping the sheltered life inside the hotel room, until Michelle and Billy come to an impasse on a serious topic, one close to Billy’s heart. But little does Billy know that Michelle has also become close to his heart, and he doesn’t realize it until she climbs onto the shuttle bus to go back to the airport…out of his life forever. A heartbreaking, true-to-life story about the trials and tribulations of being a rock star, and falling in love unexpectedly, with someone you would never have expected to fall for. A story that covers sensitive subject matter, readers will see rock stars in a whole different light, and the people that love them, too. Dress Rehearsal has sensitive scenes, violence, course language, drug use and graphic sex, so please be forewarned. Billy and Michelle’s story is a standalone that will leave you laughing, crying, and rooting for the main characters as they take you through their journey of love, heartbreak, success and triumph.
