Out of the Ashes Volume 1
Welcome to Out of the Ashes. The bar where everyone seems to find love.
Cocktails & Crushes
Out of the Ashes will be the best bar in the county. At least that’s what I promised my uncle before he passed away.
With all the changes we’re making, more challenges arise. The crowd seems to get rowdier with every day that passes, and it’s getting harder to keep my head above water.
That is until Dylan, the boy I used to know, walks in. He’s definitely not a kid anymore. But he might just be what I need to keep the bar running smoothly.
Too bad he isn’t staying in town and can only help for a few months. Then again, maybe it’s for the best.
I’m not sure how long I can fight my attraction, and guarding my heart is the least of my problems.
Because falling for Dylan? It isn’t an option. Ever.
Brews & Bartenders
The bartender is cute, and I may have a crush on him.
But it’s not like I’m going to do anything because I have David, my son, to worry about.
Which is fine until my ex-husband walks in with a younger and thinner girl on his arm. Then I grab on to the bartender with both hands and introduce him as my boyfriend.
This is a small town and word spreads. What was supposed to be one night becomes a fake relationship to keep up the ruse.
Catching feelings, though? That can’t happen.
Mai Tais & Mistletoe
The former star quarterback is home, and I’ve caught his eye.
You’d think I would be happy. Most girls would. But he didn’t even know I existed back then, and I don’t see why I should give him the time of day now.
I’ve gone out of my way to avoid him when he comes into the bar. That worked until he applied for a job.
Now, I’m stuck with him. Not only because we work together, but he’s also my ride to work after I fell off a ladder and he offers to help.
He seems like he’s changed, except he doesn’t know what his next step is. Who knows if he’s going to stay for good.
The only problem…the more time we spend together, the harder it is to keep my attraction to him at bay.
Baseball and Broadway
A broken heart is never an easy one to mend.
Alice spent years forming a new identity while chasing her dreams. A fresh start was just what she needed. When she scores the leading role in a Broadway hit, a new world of possibilities opens up, including singing the National Anthem at the very game her ex was playing.
The biggest mistake of Easton's life was ending things with Alice before they left for college. No woman has gotten close to him since. Instead, his primary focus is on his baseball career. While warming up before a game, a voice comes over the speakers as the Anthem is sung. A voice that causes something deep to stir inside of him.
Is it possible to rekindle a romance after so much damage was done? This game is bigger than any Easton has ever played. Two hearts are on the line. Either he'll strike out or slide into home for the win. There's only one way to find out.
Inconvenient Love
One night was all it was supposed to be…so why is he sitting in my office right now?
Agreeing to do the floral arrangements for a high profile wedding has opened the doors wide open for Whoopsie Daisy. My friends and I have more than we can handle, and hiring people to help is at the top of our list.
What I didn’t expect is for a job to be given to my one night stand, who happens to be younger than me. I knew he wanted to go out again, but I didn’t think he’d apply for a job at my flower shop. Though, I don’t remember telling him where I worked.
I can handle this. We’re both adults. Working together won’t be a problem. Too bad fighting my attraction to Xander is turning out to be the hardest thing I’ve ever done.
Welcome to Your Life
Pregnant and alone. That’s not how I expected to end up after high school.
Jake wants me back. But I don’t want that toxic relationship. We aren’t good together and this baby isn’t the reason we should work things out.
Between work and school, I barely have time to figure out what I want to do. That is until I’m paired up with a hot guy in class for a project. He’s slowly working his way into my heart. But, I’m pregnant and trying to adjust to my new life. How can he actually be interested in me?
With Jake home from college, he’s doubling his efforts. Especially now that he sees me with Reaf.
I have decisions to make...and it’s not just about me anymore.
