    Summary

    All you wanted was to get to Austin, but instead of your brother, it’s Frankie (Santi’s best friend, the one you can barely stand) who shows up in Dallas. He’s just doing your brother a favor, but the trip takes an unexpected turn when a stop puts you face to face with your ex; the guy who broke your heart three months ago and is now about to get married.

    Out of pride, you blurt out a lie: Frankie is your boyfriend. Surprised but willing to play along, he agrees, with one condition: you must accompany him to his mother’s birthday. His plan? Dodge his family’s meddling and their endless matchmaking schemes.

    Summary

    It didn't take Joel long to fall for you. You were Sarah's favorite teacher at school, teaching English. It didn't help that you were also beautiful, kind, smart, everything he valued in a woman.

    You loved Sarah like a daughter, as you did all your students. But there was something about her dad that threw you off; his lingering gazes, the way he'd always try to make small talk with you.

    Before you knew it, you were head over heels for the father of your brightest student.

    Summary

    You weren’t supposed to be here. Not in Texas, not renovating your best friend's dream house, and definitely not raising a child on your own.

    But life didn’t ask what you were ready for.

    You made a promise. Lily would have a home, even if you had to build it from nothing.

    What you didn’t expect was Joel Miller. The contractor with tired eyes and quiet hands, who watches you a little too carefully and offers himself up when you need him most. A man who makes the unfinished house feel less empty… and makes you wonder if another future is possible.

    Maybe even another life.

    ...

    AU of Promises We Keep. Does not need to be read in order.

    Summary

    After acquiring a rather embarrassing tattoo on a drunken night out, you go to JM INK to get it removed, unaware that who awaits you is the sexy, stoic Joel Miller who works as a tattoo artist by day and a musician by night.

    Things get hot and heavy pretty quickly over the course of your regular sessions with Joel. His gentle praise and affirming touch is all the painkiller you need.

    In a world where Joel Miller has tattoos.
