RACHEL
Divorce is hard. Looking around the remains of our old life and seeing my ex everywhere was harder. So, I packed up Jake and moved us to Brooklyn. New place, new life, new us.
They say a clean start is healing, but so far all I’ve felt is doubt. Jake doesn’t seem to be adjusting to his new school, and we’re in a bit of a social rut. My job is great, and our apartment is in a thriving neighborhood, but I can’t help but feel like I might have made a mistake.
And then I meet him - Marco Rivera.
MARCO
The fiery redhead next door has added the perfect spice to my life. Her son is a great kid, just a little shy, and I want to be the one that helps him break out of that shell. The Murphys fit in with my friends, my family, and the community I love here in Brooklyn like they were meant to be here.
From the moment I met Rachel, I knew she was special. But now that I’ve held her in my arms, I know that I need her to be mi Reina, my Queen, to have her and Jake by my side every day.
But just when I decide to take the plunge, her past spills into our present, and I’m left unsure of where we stand.
I have to step back and let her make her choice… And I’m just praying it’s me.
This sweet romance sees Rachel and Jake start to grow roots in their new hometown, settling in with the family they choose along the way.
All's Fair in Love and Football...
Elliot has everything a high school Junior could ask for. A sweet cheerleader girlfriend, a supportive family, and a spot as the starting receiver on the Crystal Falls football team with his best friend, Camden Holt. These are supposed to be the best days of his life, so why does it feel like he’s missing something?
When Elliot and his long-time girlfriend have a falling out, he's forced to face feelings for his friend Camden that run deeper than he realized. Feelings that could jeopardize more than just their friendship. If he’s wrong he could lose everything: his football prospects, his friends, the respect and acceptance from people around them… But what if he’s not?
He soon finds himself falling fast for his best friend… and Camden’s falling too. The closer they grow, the more right their new relationship feels to them both.
Can they take their love to the endzone? Or will their play fall apart in the first down?
