Which is why when I sat down nine years ago and put pen to paper, mapping out a ten-year plan, I meant business. Everything that could set me up for a lifetime of joy had to go down on the list, and every day, I worked my ass off to fulfill it. Open my own sports agency. Check. Earn first million by my thirtieth birthday. I did that a week before I turned twenty-six. Negotiate the most lucrative contract in Major League history. Did that, too. Then went and broke my own record. (Thanks, big bro!) I could go on, but this isn’t about bragging. It’s me admitting that in the midst of drafting something that helps shape and mold much of my success, I still made a costly mistake. One day I realized all those entries with corresponding checkmarks are pointless if I don’t factor into the equation the most important goal of all. Avery. Perhaps way back then I wasn’t ready to see how much my best friend of fifteen years deserved that number one spot in my life. Maybe I was blind, since the whole “settle down and get married” scenario wasn’t my thing. But now that I’m aware of the role I need her to fill in my life, there’s no such thing as letting go until I can convince her to be mine. Her being about to marry someone else does make winning her heart a little bit dicey. But if there’s anything you should know about me, it’s that I always play to win. And losing Avery is nonnegotiable. The Breakup Plan A Best Friends to Enemies Romance

    THIS BOOK ENDS ON A CLIFFHANGER***** Chanel Xavier Grant was everything a woman could want. He was a successful restaurateur and club owner and has the looks of a God with the sex appeal to back it all up. I’d had a crush on him since my early teenage years. Now, here I am thirty years old, after having just moved back to my hometown of Houston and finding myself still lusting over this man. So how did I handle this growing attraction? Like any self-respecting, professional woman who’d had her heart broken numerous times by the men in her life, I ran. I tried to ignore the sparks that flew whenever we were in the same room as one another. I have my reasons. Xavier was one of the most eligible bachelors in the city with women clamoring for his attention. Aside from that, he was my brother’s best friend, practically family—certainly treated more like family than I was. No, I didn’t need those types of problems. My best bet was to steer clear of Xavier Grant. Xavier Chanel had grown into a beautiful woman. Any man with eyes could see that. But, she was my best friend’s little sister. I had no intentions of taking it past looking until she walked into one of my restaurants one night looking a little distraught. There was something pulling me to her. Something was telling me she needed me. Usually, I’m not into being needed by a woman. I do my thing and don’t bother getting too serious, but I couldn’t ignore this pull I had to her. And when I see the danger she puts herself into helping one of her clients, my protective instincts come out. I want her. And no one, not my friendship with her brother or her father is going to stop that. Except, maybe her.

    Yet, nothing can compare to finding herself in an entirely different time period thanks to a wily experiment gone wrong. Along with her sister, she finds herself under the reluctant care of Laird MacIver, whose silent penetrating gaze causes emotions to rise that she had thought long buried after her divorce from her husband. Gavin MacIver had no intention of letting his heart get captured by anyone. Let alone some odd lass, who can't keep her story straight on how and why she was found on Aberdeen land. Yet, her calming spirit and lovely eyes draw him like a moth to a flame. Still, he won't allow the weakness of his heart to bring harm to his clan like his father did. Two people cast together by time and accident. A darkness that neither expected shall come to test the love the two wish to ignore. Will they give into the passion that's boiling under the surface? Or will they allow the betrayals of the past to keep their hearts from singing the Highland's Song?

    Her mother is sure to remind her. She lets her crazy best friend Noel talk her into joining a gym. What she didn’t expect to find was Reed. Her new personal trainer is fit, sexy, and everything she isn’t looking for. Reed loves his women with curves. When he first lays eyes on Penelope he wants to explore her delectable body. He’s more than just a handsome face and rock hard abs, and he’s ready to open up and let the right woman in. Penelope is that woman. When a woman from Reed’s past re-enters his life he’s torn between obligation and love. With lies being told and boundaries being crossed, Reed has to choose. Loyalty to his past could have him losing the best thing for his future.

The more time they spend together, the more they realize the love they once had for each other didn’t die; it lay dormant, ready for its chance to flicker to life. All they needed to do was sit back and watch the sparks fly. Except, once again, fate has other ideas. Has too much time passed for these two childhood friends? Has the pain of broken promises become too great to overcome? Or can they get past differences and tough obstacles to be together? Both Alexis and Ethan will come to a crossroads. The question is, which road will they choose… a life together or a life apart.
