Genres: Contemporary Romance
Trope: Wrong Side of the Tracks Romance, Opposites Attract, Blue Collar Romance



Escape with the Meet Cute Book Club, where meet cutes don't happen only between the pages of romance novels, and one by one, all the members find their own happily ever afters. 

Mila 

I never thought I’d have a real-life meet cute, but the minute Crossland Parker walks into my life, it starts feeling like I’m living in the pages of a romance novel. 

He sweeps me off my feet, and I find myself falling fast and hard for the rough around the edges mechanic. He’s a troubled bad boy with a heart of gold. 

Cross fits into my life effortlessly, even sharing my love of books. He’s everything I didn’t know I wanted in a man. Attentive, sweet, a little bit possessive. He’s also my biggest source of support when I decide I want to buy the building next door so I can expand my business. So what if he has a criminal record? No one is perfect. 

Unless you ask my stepfather. He expects nothing less than perfection, but not even I could ever come close. 

Cross 

After spending too many years wandering when I was released from prison, I came back to Abbott Ridge to start over. 

I wasn’t expecting Mila Santos to fall into my arms, but I’m irrevocably drawn to the curvy little beauty who owns the bookstore. She’s a good girl, too good for a guy like me. 

Our relationship develops faster than most, but I spent too many years of my life locked up. Now that I’m out, I refuse to waste a single second. I’m still not sure I deserve someone as sweet as Mila, but if she accepts me and all my faults, there’s no way I’m letting her go. Only a fucking fool would do that. 

My past is no secret, and I knew the day would come when someone would try to use it against me. I just didn’t expect it to happen so soon. 

Is happily ever after possible when a good girl falls for the guy from the wrong side of the tracks? 

The Book Boyfriend is a standalone, wrong side of the tracks romance that is part of the Meet Cute Book Club multi-author series.

I’ve been in love with Charlie Fortier since we were seven years old and she punched me in the face for pulling on her pigtails.

She was the girl next door. 

I was the punk ass kid who got in trouble. 

She told me she loved me when she was seventeen. I broke her heart instead. 

Then I left. And my band became one of the biggest in the world. 

She was always around. On the sidelines. Being my friend. 

And I’ve spent the last twelve years in love with her. She just doesn’t know. 

But I can’t tell her. Because I can’t be with her. 

I made too many deals to keep her safe. 

I owe too many debts for those same reasons. 

Now I'm back home. And she is everywhere. Staying away is too hard. But the truth is harder. 

I have scars on my black heart and they all belong to her.

I never existed until the wrong guy took notice…

I was born shy. And near him, I fall apart. No wonder he can’t stand the sight of me.

After a fire destroys our home, my family is taken in by a billionaire tycoon. His mansion has countless bedrooms, yet my room is next door to his son, Thomas Ashworth III. Yes, he’s as pompous as the name suggests. And, for some reason, he hates my guts.

When I bump into him in the middle of the night, I’d never guess it lead to us sharing secrets.

He’s impossible to get out of my head. But he wouldn’t consider dating someone like me. Would he?
