Hey, You’re Mine

About Hey, You’re Mine

“Hey, You’re Mine” is a novel about Lucy, a career-driven woman who has just ended a relationship with her boyfriend, Mike, who complained she was “too driven” and put her job first. At a friend’s engagement party, she learns to lean on her friends, Zoey and Jessica, for support.

On a business trip, Lucy meets Evan Lee, a celebrity brand ambassador, on a flight. The two have a strong connection, and a relationship begins. As their relationship develops, it is revealed that Evan has been labeled “the bad boy of Korea” by the media. As a high-profile figure, their relationship is scrutinized by the public, and Lucy’s boss, Luke, gives her an ultimatum: end the relationship or lose her job.

Fearing the loss of her career, Lucy ends things with Evan, but is miserable and second-guesses her decision. She realizes that her ambition is not a crime, but a part of who she is, and she deserves someone who celebrates her. Evan, meanwhile, refuses to lie about their relationship and tells his manager, Hyun, that he’d rather lose his endorsements than lose Lucy.

Ultimately, Lucy and Evan reunite and decide to face the challenges of their public relationship together. She gets promoted at work and is given the opportunity to expand her company’s operations into South Korea. In the end, they choose each other, and Lucy realizes that she wants to build a life and a family with him, proving that she doesn’t have to choose between her love and her career.

Waiting To Break

About Waiting To Break

The accident took his voice, but she heard him anyway.
Former rockstar Gabe Whitlock has been hidden away in a long-term care facility ever since an on-stage accident stole his music, his movement, and even his voice. No one’s thought about him in years.

Anna Lin is still raw from losing her mother and battling the panic attacks that derailed her college career. Living with her father again feels like a step backward—until he gets her a job as the activities coordinator at Rosehaven.

What she doesn’t expect is to find Gabe Whitlock, former frontman and guitarist of Pressure Front, quietly wasting away in a nursing home in Western Massachusetts.

Drawn together by music and art, Anna and Gabe forge an unlikely bond. But when Gabe’s sister schemes to seize control of his estate, Anna and a ragtag band of residents push back.

Their defiance threatens to cost Anna the fragile new life she’s building—and Gabe the last shreds of independence he has left.

Waiting to Break is an emotionally powerful, deeply romantic journey about finding your voice after losing everything, the dignity of choosing who you love, and the courage it takes to find your own path in life.

For fans of soulful, emotionally charged romance novels like Me Before You and authors Jodi Picoult, and Nicholas Sparks.

The Lumberjack’s Quirky Girl

About The Lumberjack’s Quirky Girl

I probably shouldn’t have ogled Braden Oakley’s big axe.
Oops.

The four Oakley brothers coming back to town is something no one expected. But the biggest shock of all is Braden Oakley—all six-foot-four of pure sex—asking me out three whole minutes after we meet.

Tall as a redwood and built like a moose, the devastatingly gorgeous lumberjack should have nothing in common with little miss artsy-pants—aka, me. Especially when his close-knit family likely expects him to date a certain type of girl—namely, the opposite of yours truly.

So how come the harder I try to stay away, the more I end up wrapped up in his muscled arms begging for more of his hard…wood?

Everyone talks about trees falling in the forest with no one around to hear them. But what about my heart?

I should be sensible for once, and stay away from Braden. The heat between us is hot enough to start a forest fire.

And if I don’t watch out, we’re both going to get burned.
