The Beta Test

YA Romcom · No spice

Avery has senior year mapped to the decimal point. The one thing she didn't plan for is the stranger on her phone.

Avery James knows one thing for certain—she's going to join her beloved boyfriend Braden at MIT next year. She simply has to complete her senior-year checklist: become swim team captain, ace her classes, and graduate as valedictorian. Easy peasy.

Unfortunately for Avery, her perfect plan falls apart. Braden won't pick up her calls, her GPA plummets, and her nemesis starts encroaching on her aspirations. Most bewildering of all, her lifelong best friend's little brother Jake is suddenly everywhere she turns.

When her high school launches Connection Services, a new anonymous social app, Avery does something very un-Avery: she opens it. Within days she's talking to a stranger called Mr. Pi—and he might be the only person who actually gets her.

Avery is a facts girl. Here's one she isn't ready for: some connections are a lot closer to home than they appear.

Breaking Changes

Adult Women's Fiction · Romance

Andie can run an ER, raise a kid, and weather a separation. The one thing she can't do is make a friend — until Connection Services.

Dr. Andie James runs an emergency department, raises a nine-year-old, and eats cereal for dinner more nights than she'd admit. Several months ago her husband moved out. She's been impressively functional ever since — except for the part where she can't seem to make a single friend. When she finally caves and joins an anonymous app called Connection Services, she expects nothing. What she gets is Fuchsia Diamond — another tired parent who somehow always knows what to say, and the first person in years who actually gets her humor.

Then she finds out who Fuchsia Diamond really is.
