However, the more we hang, the more I can’t help but hang on his every word, every look. And when he ends up newly single, I can’t stop my hopes from running rampant. Felix. I’ve been accused of talking about my best friend Cor too much, but when my client mistakes us for boyfriends and invites us to the historical gala of our dreams…well, it’s time to ask him to be my fake date. Except fake dating Cor doesn’t just feel natural, it feels better than most relationships I’ve been in. And when my curiosity for more takes the wheel, we end up exploring everything. We’re circling each other, just like we do in a sword fighting match, however, this isn’t just skill or reputation on the line. Far too fast, it becomes clear that I love him, and if he doesn’t feel the same, I won’t just be disarmed—losing him would deliver the finishing blow. less

Ever since my former best friend and I drifted in high school, I’ve kept my distance. I’m content sticking to my cycle—the day job, my inventions, and a string of failed dates.

There’s only one man I’ve ever wanted more with, and he wants nothing to do with me. Even if he did though, he’s straight, and I’m tugged in so many directions I’m splitting at the seams. While I don’t know what caused the rift between me and Declan, when I get assigned on a masonry job at his house, I’m not passing up the chance to get back in his life—however I can. And when one monster of a storm leaves me stranded at Declan’s house, I discover irrevocable truths. One: Declan never realized I was flirting all these years. Two: Declan’s not as straight as he thought. When those truths come to light, the potential that emerges could either change my life or completely destroy me. less

When an older hottie comes into the tattoo shop asking for a Prince Albert, I can’t help but flirt. I’ve been on the anti-commitment train forever, but I’m always down to hook up. Except, this guy happens to not only be straight and newly divorced but also my coworker/bestie’s…dad. So, avoid at all costs, right? Wyatt. Getting divorced only made me realize just how few friends I have. And maybe in a pathetic attempt at socialization, I ask my piercer to grab a drink with me after my session. But he makes me laugh, and he’s so animated and full of life that I want to hang out with him more. Then I start noticing things I shouldn’t…like how those flickers of interest feel an awful lot like attraction. Same with that desire to be around him all the time too. And then the jealousy kicks in, and before I know it, I’m falling for Rory Brannon. However, even if he was interested in more, there’s one major problem. He’s my daughter’s friend, and that makes him off-limits…no matter how badly I want him. less
