Cancer. Fucking. Sucks.
If you stuck with me to the end, thank you. If you even picked this book up and gave it a shot, thank you. I appreciate every reader and everyone who takes a chance on a newbie like me.
If you read the story, it would mean the world to me if you would review it. Reviews help indie authors immensely and it helps me grow as a writer.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Selfless
I lost my first love at twenty years old.
Then I was forced to drop out of school
to become a single mom.
I didn’t think I’d ever find love again.
I didn’t want to replace my first.
I didn’t want to erase his memory.
But love isn’t convenient and it’s never easy.
I fought our attraction. I pushed him away.
But my heart fought harder.
I have to decide what’s best not only for me,
but also for my daughter.
Even if that means losing everything.
Fearless
It all started with a bet…
I told Olivia Hart that if she won, I’d leave her alone for good. Little did she know, I was never going to let that happen. She thinks I hate her, but she couldn’t be more wrong.
I keep raising the stakes, making wagers and tricking her into spending time with me.
The more we're together, the harder she falls.
But once she learns the truth, all bets are off.
Filthy Forward
Cocky. Filthy. Player.
Tatum Trevino waltzed into my life like he owned it. The renowned soccer star showed up as my new coach and changed everything.
Until rumors started flying about the bad boy prodigy kicked off his team. I thought he was nothing but another cocky playboy, but there was another side to him under the facade.
Late training sessions, secret getaways, and a delicious sleeve of tattoos led to temptation. We kept our relationship private, but I wasn’t the only secret he was keeping.
And it’s only a matter of time before the truth comes out.
Fastball Flirt
It was meant to be a fling...
One hot summer with a major league flirt. The star pitcher with chocolatey brown hair, eyes to match, and a body I drooled over.
I wanted to have fun, make once in a lifetime memories, travel across the country.
I didn't mean to fall in love.
I had dreams to fulfill and goals to achieve.
I had a plan.
But plans have a bad habit of falling apart.
Chasing Red
My entire life has revolved around one goal: get into medical school. When it happens I should celebrate with champagne and streamers and a bouncy castle-right?
Instead, my heart feels like it's being ripped in two-follow my dreams or follow my heart? I can thank Chase Westbrook for that.
He's my brother's best friend. He also happens to be what wet dreams are made of. He's absolutely perfect and he's in love with me-he's also incredibly persistent. He's busy chasing me while I'm focused on chasing my dreams.
I'm trying to have my cake and eat it too. I won't ask him to wait for me, but I hope he does anyway. I can't let anything distract me or get in the way of my goals-and his blond hair, blue eyes, and washboard abs would be a major distraction.
