Green
Kayley Loring - 2018
I married my best friend. You know what people don’t say? They don’t tell you that you probably shouldn’t secretly marry your best friend so he can get a green card if there’s even a chance you might fall in love with him. Because that clueless hot nerd will be too busy becoming a millionaire to even notice how uncomfortable you get when he walks around the house shirtless, complaining that he can’t get the same kinds of snacks that he grew up eating in Canada. We needed to stay married for at least three years so he could become a naturalized American citizen. I have spent the last year trying to fall out of love with him, so I can make a graceful exit from this arrangement and move on to greener pastures. I did not expect my best friend to ask me to stay married to him. He did not expect me to say ‘no’ to him. Three years ago, it was all too easy to convince the immigration officer that we were a real couple. Now my beloved fake husband is going to have to work his ass off trying to convince me that he isn’t just pursuing me all of a sudden because he's crazy jealous of my new coworker. I’m going to try not to panic while he displays the sexy alpha side that he’s been hiding from me all this time. When he tempts me with “a real honeymoon,” I am going to try very hard to relax and have fun, despite having much less experience with relaxing and having fun (in bed) than him. And I have no doubt that we will both blow it, because three years ago we were just too young and naïve to realize that secretly marrying each other would complicate everything. GREEN is a standalone 70,000 word friends-to-lovers marriage of convenience sweet and sexy slow burn romantic comedy.

Rules of Engagement
Lily White - 2018
1: Do not enter the game unless you intend to finish. Once accepted, there is no escape. This is a love story, one that comes with rules, expectations, and dark shadows. One where the man who challenges me the most is cloaked in deception. I had no choice but to accept the terms, nowhere to run once the clock started ticking. Donovan Stone was a man few people dared to cross. He was dark. He was dominating. He was so silent that you had to watch him closely to begin to know what he was thinking. He was my boss, and the man I should have run from the minute I walked into his corporate office. Like any bad decision, it took time for me to see the truth about the game I’d entered, for me to understand that it wasn’t the stalker in the shadows I should fear, but the man who pulled the strings. I had no choice. At least, that’s the lie I told myself to forgive my foolish actions. And while running as fast as I could through twisted mazes and deceitful games, I understood that the Rules of Engagement were now my life.
