If she lets him into her band, she'll have to let him into her heart. Koty Jackson wanted to be a rock star, not a singer in the boy band ESX. When he finds out that Jett Costa is looking for a new guitarist and vocalist for her band, Perpetual Smile, Koty is determined to get his demo to her label. But his agent thinks he's crazy, and when he runs into Jett for a late-night television interview, she tells him that she'll never allow him in her band. Jett Costa wasn't looking for love. After losing the love of her life and the man who helped her build Perpetual Smile from the ground up, all she wants to do is get through their tour in one piece. She never thought she would let a boy band singer in her band-and she also didn't think she would fall in love with him. But if things stay the way they are, neither of them will ever get ahead in their careers. Somehow, they've got to come to an agreement-or they'll both fall into obscurity.

Poppy Hampton may be rock band South of Forever's new manager, and she may have successfully launched her brother's music career, but she sort of lied about her credentials. She also may have aged herself up a bit in her resume. It's no big deal. All she has to do is make sure they don't find out. Until the band's sexy drummer-and the guy of her dreams-Griff tells her that it's finally happened: South of Forever has been invited to go on tour with the fast rising rock band, King Riley. She'd be thrilled if such an exciting opportunity didn't mean choosing between her career and her education-or if dating Griff didn't mean lying to him about the ten-year age difference between them. Can Poppy launch her career without destroying it before it's even started? And if she risks everything to follow her heart and be with Griff, can she keep her secret safe? What Happens On Tour is the third book in the South of Forever series, a steamy contemporary New Adult romance that follows a fledgling rock band on its way to the top.

It was love at first elbow to the nose. When skirt-chasing TV star, Liam Black, gets thrown out of an unknown actress's apartment, he is impressed by the Z-lister's surprising amount of self-respect. (She's a Z-lister and he's Liam Black, after all.) After some subtle stalking, Liam learns that the woman is ambitious Hollywood attorney, Gemma Vaughn, and he becomes intent on making her the Amal to his George Clooney. The cold-hearted lawyer, however, has zero interest in Liam, whom she believes to be a walking STD. When Gemma is forced to accept the trouble-making celebrity as a client, her worst nightmare is realized: he begins to grow on her - kind of like a fungus. Will Gemma be able to keep their relationship strictly professional, or will Liam break down her walls and compromise her heart (and maybe her health)? Note: This is an excerpt only.
