Water, Air, Earth, Fire - La série

Love is cheap. Love is cruel. Love can’t save us. Victor Lang had everything—looks, money, fame. A chance to become the greatest swimmer in history. Until a failed dope test brought him crashing down. According to the rumors, he turned into a recluse, a drug addict, a whore. Broken beyond repair. Incapable of love. And for some reason, he’s set his sights on me. A freak accident in his pool throws me into a world of wealth and status and people who are willing to do anything to get what they want. Before I know it, I’m being paid to fly to Italy and pose as his boyfriend. Trapped at his side, I learn what it means to truly hate someone. Turns out, that’s exactly what he wants. I can’t save him, and I can’t love him. But as things fall apart and I discover the truths he’s hiding, I learn that hate can be greater than love—an obsession, a prayer, dark days and darker nights, a need to be the only one who hurts him. Hate can heal the worst wounds love leaves behind. But I have problems of my own, a broken spirit and loved ones to protect. And I’m scared to face the things he’s waking up inside of me. * A gritty, emotional, epic hate-to-love slow burn with an inexperienced top and his bratty bottom, hurt/comfort, obsession, and healing. Contains dark themes, adult content, and potential triggers, though every effort was made to portray them thoughtfully and sensitively. Specific triggers (potential spoilers): sexual abuse (off the page), suicidal ideation, drug abuse, disordered eating, trauma, death, mental illness, homophobic language

You can’t fly without falling, so close your eyes and let go. People ask me if I’m human. If I have feelings. If I’ve ever loved anyone. I’m the lawyer who has never lost a case because I have nothing else to live for. Until Jonah. He’s my complete opposite: a reckless boy twelve years younger than me, made of sunshine and wicked smiles, pure and breathtaking. It all starts with a secret. He wants to find out if he’s bi, and he begs me to teach him because we’ll never see each other again. Until he shows up on my doorstep with nowhere else to go. I can’t draw lines faster than we blur them. He’s the unstoppable force; I’m the immovable object. When we collide, things get filthy. Complicated. More beautiful than I ever could have imagined. He’s the only person ever to learn the truth: I’ve always been human. I’ve always had feelings. I’ve been so, so afraid to lose. Because the moment we find enough trust to jump is the moment we realize our wings might be too broken to fly. The books in this series take place in the same universe and have recurring characters, but each book is a standalone that can be read separately or in any order!

We’re complete opposites, the sun and the moon, things that were never meant to touch. Everything changed the day this brooding, high-powered lawyer found his forever in a scrappy farm boy from Iowa.

I’ve planned out every single step of our happily-ever-after—a chance to start over in a new home and build a beautiful life together. Lazy early morning kisses, summer fairs and barbecues, our perfect daughter. Turns out, you can’t walk into the future without facing your past. The unexpected appearance of an orphaned boy brings back my oldest wounds. Jonah faces a choice between his identity and his family’s business. But no matter what comes, we’ll meet it together. When our short-sighted plans fall apart, we realize the sun and moon are never alone; they exist in a universe of stars so much bigger and brighter and more chaotic than we could ever imagine. * This 30,000-word novella picks up right after the ending of Jonah and Gray's love story, Make Me Fall.

Wait for me. Never let me go. I fell in love with Jackson Moreno in hell, the only two survivors trapped in a catastrophic tunnel collapse. But when rescue comes, I discover he has secrets darker than I could have guessed. He disappears from my life as quickly as he came, and I can’t afford to chase after him when I have to raise my daughter alone. I fell in love with Jackson Moreno six years later, on a bright summer afternoon, cleaning the lobby of a small-town bank. But he’s still running, and I’m struggling to keep my little family afloat. I fell in love with Jackson Moreno in three feet of snow, surrounded by garbage and filth, after we lost everything. Because sometimes a tatted bad boy and a shy dad who loves knitting are destined to be together, no matter how many years and miles and memories pull us apart. No matter how many times we have to start over. If we refuse to be broken, I believe someday we’ll find each other for the last time. * An epic, moving story of second chances and love that defies all odds, featuring a double gay for you relationship full of first times, hurt/comfort, a demisexual main character, and mental health representation!

Three wrongs can’t make a right. I’ve spent six years building a life that isn’t defined by my father’s sins—a beautiful girlfriend, a thriving nonprofit, safe dreams that won’t get me into trouble. Someone with my family’s reputation can’t step out of line without drawing attention, and they definitely can’t coach professional swimmers. My carefully controlled world starts to unravel on my summer vacation, when a mysterious boy catches my eye. He’s intoxicating, beautiful, and an incredible swimmer. His body makes me question everything about my sexuality, and his talent makes me desperate to become his coach. Too bad the only lawyer who will help me navigate the PR nightmare of opening a coaching program happens to be a rude, self-absorbed, sexy-as-sin older man who doesn’t even like me. I shouldn’t want either of them, but my mixed up heart wants both. When one explosive moment in an empty locker room ties all three of us together, we start down a path we can’t turn back from, even as my past threatens to destroy my future. We weren’t supposed to be more than a single night’s mistake. I can’t do anything to threaten my life’s work. But I’m not sure I can live without them, either. Breaking free from the past has a cost for all three of us, but I don’t know if we can afford to pay it. * An emotional MMM standalone with a double age gap, enemies to lovers, forced proximity, and gay first times.
