Jeff is always the tag along, never the main event.

Alison's quirky personality keeps her in the friend zone.

When the two cross paths in a way that's so on brand for the both of them it can only be described as kismet, the spark is immediate. But is it enough to overcome the dark events that unfold a short time later? Will Jeff ever believe that love can be amazing even if it's messy?

Because one touch was all it took and sometimes that's enough.

***

Apparently cinnamon roll heros are my brand, so if you're into a hero who's a nice guy but can still pack a punch, this is your story.

"'Bye.' I say after Edwin's kiss. He gives me a small smile that honestly looks more like a grimace. It makes me a little uncomfortable having him kiss me in the library. Edwin walks away, and someone standing in the corner of my vision makes me turn in my seat. A tall, muscular man is standing there, his arms crossed, staring at me. He's got dark brown hair, perfect eyebrows, and soft brown eyes. Honestly, he's gorgeous. And since I've read, and edited, about five articles about him, I recognize him immediately. Dane Sawyer. He's the best pitcher on our baseball team. He's hoping to go pro, although I'm not totally sure what the process is surrounding that, since I don't retain much of the information from the articles that I read about him. I know that he's also a junior, and that his girlfriend is hot as fuck. I've seen them together on campus. They're hard to miss because they are easily one of the most attractive couples that I've ever seen. I'm convinced that I must be hallucinating, because he makes eye contact and walks towards me. 'That was awkward.'" ~~~ Junior year is starting off chaotic for Mackenzie Brooks as she steps into her role as the editor-in-chief of the college's newspaper. She's smart, focused on school, the paper, and her TA responsibilities. Junior year should be starting off easy for Dane Sawyer. He's the star pitcher of the baseball team; attractive, athletic, desirable, with a hot girlfriend. Unfortunately, he's also failing computer science which is the one thing he sees that is in the way of his pro career. Different in more ways that one, when the two run into each other in the library, it's an immediate disaster. But when Dane convinces Mackenzie to be his tutor, both of their lives begin to change.

#1 - Shocks & #1 - Drums 6-10-20 #1 - Guitar 14/2/20 "Why did you come here tonight?" He whispers, looking down at my lips in frustration. He's fighting an internal battle with himself. I reach out and touch his arm, he stands completely still. "Maybe it's the only way..." I gasp as he reaches for both of my hands and starts walking me backwards. I swallow hard. I want him, and nothing else matters. Fuck the consequences, this is happening. *** He's pinning me down as his tounge slowly caresses mine, and I find myself automatically tangling my fingers through his hair, gently tugging and encouraging him. "Keep going." I whisper into his mouth, before pulling his lips back down on to mine. Our kiss is faster this time, much more urgent and passionate. I arch my back allowing him to slip his hands behind my back and undo my bra clasp. Then he hesitates. "I want you. All of you." I wrap my legs around his waist, fulling pressing his arousal up against mine, and he grunts. "Please." He breathes into my neck. I'm making this hard for him. Good. "We can't, it's not smart." "We can." I assure him. And without another moments hesitation, he's kissing me like I've never been kissed before and his hands are roaming all over my body, and my hands are tugging at his boxers and he's pulling my thong down. And finally, finally.. *** Jamie wasn't looking for love when she started college, but if it's meant to be it'll be - right? Jamie Hawkins is an 18 year old Freshman at NBU - a college famous for producing the hottest musicians on the planet. Jamie's plan for the future is clear: get a record deal with her band, The Middle. But when the sexy, moody, arrogant Noah Adams comes crashing into her life on her first day of college, things may not be as straight forward as she had hoped. Jamie didn't plan on falling for Noah, and he most certainly did not plan on falling for her or any other girl. With twists, shocks, parties and sex, it's gonna be interesting.

In which I fall in love with my brother's best friend. ***** "Don't pretend like you don't feel anything." His voice is low, sending shivers down my spine. "What do you mean?" "You know damn well what I mean." "I don't know what you're talking about." I pretend to ignore him, flipping some pages in my book. "Come on. I have all these assignments waiting. Aren't you supposed to teach me tonight?" "It depends on what you want me to teach." He smirks, his voice sounding even more dangerous. ***** I thought that my brother was the most popular guy in school, but as soon as I step into my university life, I realize how wrong I was. Meet Vaughn Cooper, his best friend. The guy is the epitome of every girl's dream. Godlike handsome. The quarterback. He's got the looks, and he's got the brain. Come on, he's got the scholarship to one of the most prestigious universities in the country, while I have just barely passed the entrance examination after long years of struggle during high school. How could a guy who worked that hard and deserves nothing more but adoration be labeled as a bad boy? Yeah, the answer is simple. The moment we lock eyes, I realize something as I stare into those piercing, amber eyes. He's not every girl's dream. He's every girl's nightmare. In my case, MY nightmare. Calm down, heart. Our story hasn't even started. ***** THE SPENCERS SERIES BOOK #1 © 2020 Anya Jayvyn. All Rights Reserved.

Tagline: She gave him one night. Now he wants forever-- and a second chance to make her believe in love. Poppy McDaniel has never been the loudest in the room. Quiet, observant, and a little jaded when it comes to love, she's built walls around her heart that no guy has ever gotten close to scaling. After watching too many people she cares about get hurt, she's convinced romance is just a pretty word for temporary distractions - especially when it comes to the cocky, too-charming types. Enter Jace Knox. He's the walking definition of trouble: motorcycle, leather jacket, reckless grin. He's chaos wrapped in confidence. The kind of guy Poppy's sworn off before even giving a chance. But when their paths cross at their senior class party - a night Poppy only went to because her twin brother dragged her there - sparks fly in a way neither of them expected. One night. That's all it was ever supposed to be. Poppy leaves her number - against her better judgment - and when Jace never calls, she figures it's for the best. Until August rolls around. Now at Westbrook University, Poppy's ready for a clean slate, focusing on school, her goals, and surviving college life with her brother Preston by her side. But life has other plans - and they come in the form of a familiar smirk and motorcycle helmet sitting on the opposite side her brother's dorm room. Jace Knox is Preston's new roommate. And the second he sees Poppy again, he knows he messed up - big time. What was meant to be a casual fling is now a constant presence in his life, and he's determined to prove to Poppy that he's not the mistake she thinks he is. But forgiveness doesn't come easy for a girl who doesn't believe in second chances... Especially when her heart is the one on the line.
