Splintered Hearts Series by Sophie Quinn

Noah. Rich. Confident. Motivated. Or at least I was until my father kicked me out of our home after catching me with a one-night stand. Now I'm crashing on my best friend's couch and dancing around his less-than-thrilled boyfriend. My life is going just great. But then, I'm offered a room to rent.

Or at least I was until my father kicked me out of our home after catching me with a one-night stand. Now I'm crashing on my best friend's couch and dancing around his less-than-thrilled boyfriend. My life is going just great. But then, I'm offered a room to rent. It's a cute place, and the man who comes with it is sexier than I know how to handle. I am only a mere mortal. I try to resist, but no matter how much my best friend warns me, I can't stay away from my brand new tattooed sexy roommate. Sure he’s a little growly and closed off but no matter how much I’m warned away I can’t seem to stay away too long. It would be easy if Jamie were as awful as my best friend says, only he’s not. Not even a little. The spark between us can’t be denied. I know he feels it too. My best friend says he's trouble, but that only makes me want him more. Because let's face it, I love trouble. Jamie. Looking for a roommate after my best friend ditched me to move in with his stupid boyfriend is the last thing I want to do, but It’s not like I can afford this place myself or that I didn’t see this coming. Finding a roommate is going to be impossible. Or so I think. Then I meet Noah. Our attraction is instant and offering him the room to rent is a bad idea, but I can’t stop myself from word vomiting the offer the first time we meet. The adorably sexy bookworm with an obsession for romance and inappropriate shirts starts to wedge himself under my skin. He’s unlike anyone I’ve ever met. Noah knocks down every wall I’ve spent years building since tragedy struck me. Old habits die hard, and I’ve always been my worst enemy. My demons are hard to fight and when my past comes back to haunt me, I have a choice. Heal the splintered parts of my heart or fall back into my old ways and risk losing him forever. Splintered Hearts is a grumpy sunshine romance featuring a hopeless romantic bookworm trying to get his life back on track and a grouchy tattooed introvert trying to rebuild his life after a tragedy.
