Synopsis:

A painfully awkward love story.

Incomprehensibly awkward Elizabeth Wilde is desperate for love. Connection. Intimacy. After a lifetime of romantic failures, the twenty-one-year-old gamer realizes she needs help. Professional help. She needs…

A sex tutor.

The devastatingly hot jock Austin Jacobs is just the man for the job. As the reigning campus sex god, he has the playboy act down pat. But underneath those six-pack abs beats a broken heart. He doesn’t trust people and he sure as hell doesn’t believe in love.

The odd couple strike a deal. Four weeks of ‘tutoring’ for five thousand dollars.

When Austin coaxes Elizabeth out from behind her computer screen, the attraction they feel is undeniable. They’re both a little broken, but somehow their jagged edges fit. And when their world comes tumbling down on top of them, they each have to decide if this weird thing called love is worth fighting for.

      

*Excerpt*

I roll my shoulders and take a few deep breaths as I stare at the door to Elizabeth’s apartment Tuesday night. It doesn’t stop my heart from racing. For the first time ever in my life I’m fucking nervous about a girl. 

Man up, Jacobs. 

I knock on her door. She seems surprised when she answers it. 

“Hi,” she mutters, staring at me quizzically. I guess she was expecting me to saunter in again like I own the place. 

I don’t own her and it’s important I remember that. No more playing boyfriend. Tonight I’m going to keep things flirty and casual. 

“Hi,” I reply, waiting to be asked into the apartment. I let my eyes wander over her. She’s back in her baggy jeans, but she isn’t wearing the standard loose T-shirt. She’s in a tight tank top that’d give even Stevie Wonder a chance to admire how well-endowed she is. 

The lettering stretched across her chest reads, “Sorry I’m late. I didn’t want to come.” That sounds like Elizabeth. It's adorable and sexy all in one. The thirteen-year-old in me wants to bury my face in her tits, motorboating until I can’t breathe. The twenty-one-year-old in me wants to make sure she comes. All. Night. Long.

“Hi,” she says again, biting her lip with a coy smile. This girl is casually delectable.

“You said that already,” I simper. “Can I come in? Or did you add voyeurism to our sex-abus?” 

She gives me a light gasp and an incredulous look before grabbing my shirt and pulling me into the apartment. She closes the door, crosses her arms, and glares at me. I can’t help but chuckle. She’s beautiful when she’s pissed.

**About the Author**

Amelia Kingston is many things, the most interesting of which are probably California girl, writer, traveler, and dog mom. She survives on chocolate, coffee, wine, and sarcasm. Not necessarily in that order.

She’s been blessed with a patient husband who’s embraced her nomad ways and traveled with her to over 30 countries across 5 continents (I’m coming for you next, Antarctica!). She’s also been cursed with an impatient (although admittedly adorable) terrier who pouts when her dinner is 5 minutes late.

She writes about strong, stubborn, flawed women and the men who can't help but love them. Her irreverent books aim to be silly and fun with the occasional storm cloud to remind us to appreciate the sunny days. As a hopeless romantic, her favorite stories are the ones that remind us all that while love is rarely perfect, it’s always worth chasing.

Synopsis:

She thinks meeting him must’ve been fate. It wasn’t.

Claire, a pastry chef struggling to make her restaurant succeed, is too busy to pursue romance. That doesn’t stop her loving but meddling mother, Helen, from setting her up on dates. Even after Helen promises to stop her matchmaking efforts, she can’t help herself. She convinces Eric, a pediatrician, to meet Claire at a gallery event.

Eric and Claire feel an immediate connection, and their meeting becomes a magical first date.

This witty, sweet romance includes a free Hallmark original recipe for Claire’s Coconut Lime Tarts.

       

    

*Excerpt*

          As she crossed her condo to fetch her bag, the answering machine clicked on. Th e machine was old-fashioned, but it still worked, so she hadn’t seen a reason to get rid of it. A disembodied male voice fl oated from it.

          “Hi, Claire. You don’t know me, but your mother suggested I give you a call.”

          “Seriously?” she said to the machine and made a face at it.

          Claire didn’t bother to pick up the phone. Any guy who’d take her mother up on her matchmaking schemes did not deserve a second of Claire’s attention.

          The disembodied voice continued. “Maybe we could grab dinner tomorrow night? My name is Peter Bloom. Call me back, let me know.”

          “No.” Not just no. Never.

          “My number is 256—”

          Claire grabbed her jacket and slammed the door of her condo for good measure, right as the answering machine clicked off.

          When she got to the bakery, she buzzed straight past all of Marco’s stellar decorations and cornered her mother in the kitchen.

          “Who is Peter Bloom?”

          At least Helen had the grace to look slightly chagrined, but definitely not chagrined enough for the crime in question, at least not as far as Claire was concerned.

          “Peter, yes.” Her mother smoothed her hair self-consciously. “He came to an open house of mine. He didn’t end up buying. But a single man shopping for a four-bedroom? I guess he wants to start a family.”

          Claire rolled her eyes, because really? Maybe he wanted to start a hotel for dogs. Unless he’d expressly told her mother that he was looking for a wife to go along with his house, Helen needed to butt out.

          “Mom, you have to stop setting me up.”

          Especially with men Claire had never met. Or men she had met. Men she’d dated a few times and had lost interest in. All of them were off limits.

          Claire wheeled toward the sink to dump the plate she’d snagged as her excuse for being in the kitchen, instead of out front ensuring everything was running smoothly. Which was where she should be instead of back here telling her mom yet again to lay off.

          Helen followed her to the sink, still making excuses for her overbearing behavior. Still fussing over Claire with maternal concern practically dripping from her expression. Her mom reached out to adjust the neckline of Claire’s dress.

          “Oh, Claire, pretty soon your dad and I are going be off traveling the globe, and if he has his way, we are not going to be home much. I hate the idea of you being alone.”

          “I’m not alone! I am here, at the bakery, twenty-four/seven, which is exactly where I want to be. There’s plenty of time for me to find someone and fall in love.”

          It wasn’t that Claire hated the idea of meeting someone. It was just… Well, she wanted to meet someone. Like, literally meet them, in a special, fate-filled way that would clue her in instantly that she’d met The One.
