Welcome to Drayton Hills University, CO

This sophomore series travels from Utah to Colorado in a four-part college rom-com. Each book is part of this series of interconnected stand-alones with popular tropes such as best friend’s brother, fake dating, forced proximity, the tutor trope and more… The series kicks off with Cat and Connor’s swoony and spicy story in ‘Our Secret Moments.’

Our Secret Moments - a best friend’s brother romance

Catherine Fables is a planner and a fixer. She's lived her life to a set of rules that she's certain will guarantee success. When a wrench is thrown into the framework of her steady routine, she has to work around it or... through it. As a journalism major, good reviews mean everything to her, so when nobody wants to take over the abandoned newspaper for the college football team, she takes the opportunity by the horns. Or, the helmet, I guess?

Connor Bailey, quarterback for the Drayton Titans, can only try to fix the one thing that matters the most to him. His team. He's confident in most of the ways that matter - huge ego, flirtatious personality, convinced he's got the biggest... You get the idea. One thing he's not so good at? Talking to people about himself. He could talk for hours about football, but when he tries to get down to the deeper stuff, he often comes up empty. Strangely enough, talking to Cat is easier than it is with most people.

When the two are in more close-contact situations than they'd like at parties and in hot tubs filled with steamy tension, will Cat and Connor be able to keep their attraction to one another at bay? Or will they blow their cover as they hide their relationship from Nora, Cat's best friend, roommate and worst of all Connor's sister...

Our Secret Game - a best friends to lovers romance

Nora Bailey is a mess, on and off stage. A good kind of mess. The kind of mess that kisses the first person she sees after finding her ex cheating on her. Fake dating Wes, the boy who has been annoying her since they could speak, was not in the script that she’s been writing for her life. But she’s a romantic. And she knows there’s nothing better than a good plot twist.

Wes Mackenzie is just as much a mess as Nora, if not messier. Running has been his greatest strength since he was a kid, but that also means running away from his problems; one of them being a six-four man who coaches his football team and is also his dad. When he continues pressuring Wes to quit his playboy act and fix his attitude on and off the field, he knows just the person who can help.


Being a theatre major has its perks, so Nora is sure she can put on the performance of a lifetime to save her dignity as a star at Drayton. Wes is not so good at acting, but for her, he’d do just about anything. Including ignoring the very real feelings that he has for her while trying to keep her as a friend.

When the final curtain closes, will either of them be able to put on their best faces or will their feelings for each other crash and burn right in front of the audience?
