I want to spend more time with her. When a stalker begins sending Kylie a series of notes, I'm only too willing to help protect her. Maybe I'm looking for a relationship after all.*Standalone with a HEA.

A romantic comedy adventureFletcher is the "World's Worst Boyfriend" and I have the trophy to prove it--along with the consolation gift card I've already spent.Entering him into the anonymous contest was cathartic and eye opening. It's obvious I need to end this farce of a relationship... so, I do.Too bad I'm still comparing every man I meet to Fletcher. Too bad I can't get him out of my mind--or my house, for that matter, with the way he's always stopping by to 'fix' something. And it's especially too bad that I'm learning not everything is as it seems, and that maybe, just maybe, Fletcher had a good reason for his actions. (Although, there is no justification for the moldy laundry.) What's a girl to do? He says he'll explain everything soon. But am I ready to face that explanation? What if he's really not the worst--what if I am?

World's Worst Boyfriend

Tuesdays Like That

She disappeared from our lives without a word. I never expected to run into her at a Quik Mart in between jobs. What’s a guy to do when he finds his first crush? Follow her home, of course, and remind her of all the things she’s missing. I didn’t know that holding onto Riley would involve living in a trailer park. Or keeping it a secret from my sister—her best friend. Riley is completely at home with lawn-mower racing, beer-guzzling exhibitionists. She doesn’t think I can handle it. Well, I’m going to show Miss Trailerhood that I’m here to stay—no matter what trailer-park mayhem she puts me through. Love is patient, love is kind, love means buying a single wide.

Miss Trailerhood

My best friend is back in town—and I refuse to let my pesky attraction to him ruin our friendship.

Tripp Sharpe and I have been best friends since middle school. And when he moved away to go to medical school and become a doctor? We’ve kept up by texting, phone calls, and every funny reel we come across.

I have one simple rule for myself: protect our friendship at all costs—even from myself.

But when Tripp moves back to town, I can't ignore the attraction I feel. If it were anyone else, I’d just avoid him. But it's hard to avoid a guy who thinks we're still the same ol' besties we've always been.

Or are we? It turns out some things have changed for him too.

Maybe I'm imagining the long stares, the lingering touches, or the flimsy excuses to spend time together, despite his ridiculous schedule.

And when Tripp asks me to show him how I like to kiss? It seems like I’m not the only one blasting through our friendship rules…
