Like all night long and the next morning kind of staying power. So when he asks me to spend the next day with him, I do. The only reason I give him my number is because he makes me laugh. And, okay, so I might have met up with him once or twice.That doesn't mean I need him. Because I am Everly Freaking Spencer, and I don't need anyone (other than my bestie), and definitely not a man.Only...He shows up by chance at my store, which totally freaks me out. Finding out he's my favorite author doesn't help either.And the surprise that's dropped in our laps later that day?Major. Freak. Out.But, like I said, I don't need anyone.Right?If I keep repeating that, I might just believe it.Author warning: Get ready for a trip into the hippiest little town in Texas. There's gossipy little old ladies (LOLs), an app that every teenager hates, trips to Denver and Cali, a woman who is convinced true love doesn't exist, and  man who aims to prove her wrong by doing things to her that should embarrass the author. And she was. (Not really). Along the way readers get to spend time with the gorgeous Hawthorne brothers and gay ducks. SERIOUSLY. GAY. DUCKS. Just get the book already because you know you want to know about them. Also, there's a happily ever after fit for a woman with commitment issues and man who just doesn't know when to give up.

Don't Dare Love


Sonya Jesus - 2017
    With just a smile, she reached into the depths of my depression and brought me out of the dark place my mind had gone to, filling me with light. She gave me purpose, hope, and something worth fighting for—us…she just doesn’t know it yet. I’ve been watching her every move since that day—listening, learning—waiting for the day she graduates to rescue her from the life she shies away from. I have a plan, and no one will stop me. She’s going to be mine. AmeliaI have issues. I’m the first one to admit my brain doesn’t shut up­—ever­—and holding on to my v-card like it’s a hall pass to heaven, is insane. I’m a junior in college. I’ve dated guys and some of them even made me want to commit. I never have. That might all change with him, but he’s definitely not the ending my friends want for me. Connor’s different, or maybe I’m different with him. When it’s just the two of us things are comfortable, easy, simple—but my heart doesn’t always beat to the same tune as my thoughts, and that frustrates me. I’m losing control and people are noticing—people who can break me. Disclaimer: Some of the content is for a mature audience.
