Author of sweet and spicy gay romance novels.

One night of pure bliss is meant to be fleeting—so why does Micah linger in my thoughts?

There’s nothing wrong with being a party boy. At Summerville U, I’m in the hottest frat on campus and I have everything I could want. Seeing a handsome guy at a party, I want him to be mine for the night.

And I always get what I want.

However, that was all it was supposed to be. Until Micah ends up as my partner for a class project. Suddenly, he’s icing me out. We had a good time and I know I’m not bad in bed. So what’s with the cold shoulder? Even worse, why do I care?

I won’t get involved, because I know heartache when a relationship falls apart. Yet I can’t stop thinking about his pretty smile and perfect tan skin. I know it’s dangerous. I don’t want to get hurt.

But maybe losing him is even worse.

Theo Ward is the hot, popular jock who’s never once looked my way. Until he asks me to play his fake boyfriend over spring break… and discovers he can’t look away.

Studying is what I’m best at; not partying or awkward socializing. So when I finally let my only friend drag me out, of course I manage to spill a drink on a handsome athlete named Theo.

He finds me a week later with the craziest of suggestions. He wants us to fake date. Embarrassing as it is, it’ll give me at least some relationship experience, and for him? He’s tired of his friends trying to hook him up all the time.

A simple enough arrangement… until we go on a spring break road trip where I have to spend every minute with my new boyfriend. I know someone like Theo would never be into a nerd like me. But as we spend every day pretending and every night in the same bed, it’s getting hard to remember that fact.

I work hard and party even harder—but now my rival is making me play hard to get.

I never lose. Whether it’s Summerville U’s highest GPA or beer pong champion, I always come out on top, even if I have to hurt a few feelings. When the pre-law department announces a summer internship for the most-qualified candidate, it’s mine.

Especially when I learn I’m up against my sexy rival:

Alex Vanguard, the basketball-playing frat boy who loves to crawl under my skin. He may have a killer body and a jaw-dropping smile, but the only thing that matters is that he’s competition.

At least until he dares me to kiss him and realize he can be so much more satisfying in my bed than in my way.

My best friend and I have a deal. One summer. One bed. One rule—no strings attached.

We’re complete opposites—he’s a brooding, sullen musician, I’m the frat boy football star. No matter how much he makes my heart race, it would never work.

Not only are my feelings one-sided, but Dylan doesn’t fit my vision of a picture perfect future…or my family’s.

But when a group trip to Europe starts with us sharing a room, there’s things I can’t ignore.

His pretty lips.

The yearning in his eyes.

The one bed we have to share.

I need to focus on my future and my family—but when he suggests a summer fling, lines are crossed. The deeper I go, the more I can’t hide it anymore.

Summer is coming to an end…and our arrangement might have more than a few strings.
