Am I making a mistake by moving in with my brother and his hot best friend? Most definitely! Did my heart start pounding when I saw him in his towel? No comment. Did I get all dolled up for what I thought was a date that ended up being a work event? Can the earth swallow me up now, please? Oliver Rose has been in my life since I was seven. As my brother's best friend, he was at my house more often than not. And I loved having him around. In fact, I even had a secret crush on him. Even though he was four years older than me, that didn't stop me from daydreaming. Until I turned seventeen and he broke my heart. I swore I would never interact with him again. And I didn't. But now, it's five years later, and I'm graduating college and all out of options. With no job and no prospects, my parents have stated I can move back home or I can live in New York with my brother. Obviously, New York is the better option, but my brother's roommate is Oliver. Oliver with the gray-blue eyes that have haunted my dreams. Oliver with the kissable lips that smirk whenever they see me. Oliver with the steely tongue that lives to boss me around. I've told myself that I'm older now. I'm not going to let him bother me. But then he picks me up at the airport, and I know that staying away from him will be a lot harder than I thought. Oliver Rose isn't happy that I've been ignoring him for years, and now he's determined to make me his. But the joke's on him because I'm never going to fall for him again. The Edge of Falling is a standalone romance.

The Edge of Falling

Noah St. James is the grump who stole Christmas... Seriously...Christmas used to be my favorite time of year. The presents, the spiked eggnog, kissing handsome men under mistletoe. And then he came into my life. Or rather, I came into his life, under a little bit of a pretense. It's not my fault I wanted to surprise my boyfriend on the train home to visit his parents. How could I have foreseen that he would dump me and then I'd have to pretend I was on the train for another reason? Surely, I couldn't have known fate would play a helping hand by having a driver at the station, holding up a placard with my name on it. And yes, I did lie slightly when I said I was the Taytum they were waiting for. But I was going to tell them after I slid into the limo. I just needed my boyfriend to see I didn't care that he was a two-timing weasel. I didn't know I was going to meet Noah St. James in the backseat. And after his snarky, "You're Late," I knew I wanted to bring him down a peg or two. It had nothing to do with his turquoise blue eyes. Or the fact that he put made movie stars look ugly. Or the way my heart raced when I caught him staring at my lips. So, yes, I pretended to be the nanny the St. James family had hired to look after Noah's sisters three young kids for Christmas. It was only going to be for a month. And I was in need of a job anyway. And the house and family were Hallmark perfect. I didn't account for the fact that I'm not good with kids. I can't clean very well. And Noah St. James seems to be on to me. Why else would he be popping up everywhere I go? I just keep telling myself that I only need to last 30 days. And maybe, just maybe this will be the best Christmas of my life.

Eggnog, Mistletoe, & Noah St. James

To my tent mate, I am only going to say this once. I am not interested in you. I will not be sharing a sleeping bag with you. I will not be asking you to keep me warm with your 'hot body'. Who calls their own body hot by the way? I will not be doing a belly dance for you in the middle of the night and I definitely won't be making you hot chocolate. You'll be lucky if I even alert you to a bear, so don't push your luck. I'm going to be 100% honest with you. I'm not interested and have no desire to see you again after this trip. Yours Unsincerely, Susie P.S. Not if you were the last man on earth They say that no good deed goes unpunished and they are surely right. I agreed to go on a camping trip with my best friend and her new boyfriend, Finn, but I never agreed to share a tent with Finn's best friend, Brody. Brody is a pompous full of himself jock. He thinks he rules the world because he's some hot shot baseball player, but the jokes on him because I don't even watch sports. I just need to get past this weekend without killing him and then I never have to deal with his arrogant ass again.

P.S. Not If You Were The Last Man On Earth

"Go on a date," she said. "You'll love it," she said. She was wrong! It had been one year, two months and seventeen days since my last date. So my best friend Abby decided to sign me up for a dating app. She guaranteed that she could get me the best date of my life within one week. I didn't really want to do it, but I figured what did I have to lose? Turns out that I had: 1. $500 2. My dignity 3. My patience and 4. My innocence to lose OK, so I didn't really have my innocence to lose, but believe you me, Jack Morrison was my worst date ever. And I've been on a lot of bad dates. Trust me when I say that that was the longest ten hours and 33 minutes of my life. I never wanted to see or speak to him again. But it turns out you don't always get what you want in life, because Jack showed up the very next day at a family gathering I was attending as a fake plus one. As you can imagine that was a real pickle, Jack wanted to know why I went on a date with him when I'm dating someone else. But he can't know the whole complicated truth of the matter. I'm in a fake relationship and now I'm being blackmailed by the worst date ever. That's not even the worst part. I decided to log onto this new app called "confession board" to seek some advice, but it turns out Jack Morrison is absolutely everywhere and he's not going to leave me alone until I submit to his demands.

Worst Date Ever

To My New Boss You are an asshole. Maybe I'd even call you a boss hole. We've never even officially met because you're worried all of your lower assistants will "fall for you and make a pass." You sent your executive assistant to give me a list of "to-do's" that were so basic I thought I was in preschool. And let's not talk about your "never-do's." You can only wish I would make a pass. You would be so lucky as to even catch a glimpse of my fine ass. In fact, why don't you kiss it instead? Jerk. Also, I'm not taking a vocabulary or algebra test. Just because you're the CEO doesn't give you the right to be pompous and arrogant. And frankly, I saw that photo of you in the newspaper last year; are you cousins with the yeti? Not a good look. You can keep your $25 an hour. My self-respect is worth more than that. And no, I'm not interested in any of your other offers. Marcia "I have self-respect" Lucas P.S. Never in a Million Years I'm not crazy-I never intended to actually send the email. It was just a draft email I wrote to vent. I needed the paycheck way too much to go off on my boss. Only when I went into the office the next day, there was a note on my desk. It read, "Got your email. A million years is up. See me in my office. Your boss, Finn 'The Yeti' Winchester." My dad was right: my mouth would eventually get me into trouble. Only he had no idea just how bad the trouble was going to be.
