DON'T LET GO (The
Invisibles #1)
Synopsis:
Sadie Miller is attempting to change
her ways and hide somewhere no one knows her former self. She only wants to
finish her final year of college, obtain her degree, and get out from the hold
of her affluent parents. Then she meets Brady Carsen, the lead singer of The
Invisibles, a popular local band in the college town. She tries to stay away
but quickly realizes that, although he might not be what she’s used to, he’s
exactly what she needs and more importantly, everything she could possibly
want.
Unfortunately, Sadie’s troubled past
left her with insecurities that make her question Brady’s true intentions. And
while Brady is convinced that Sadie is the one for him, he has his own secrets
that he fears will be their undoing. If they want to be together, they will
have to stand united and fight the outside influences that are threatening to
tear them apart. Can they put their pasts behind them for good in order to
secure their future?
Excerpt from Don’t Let Go
“So
you knew I wasn’t drunk?” I ask him and he grins.
“Yeah,
I knew you were sober. I didn’t knock you down though. That was just luck on my
part,” he chuckles. “Then you were there by my side, and I had to go up on
stage to play. There has never been a time that I didn’t want to perform more
than that night. I told the guys we were going to cut it short. When I finished
the second song, I saw you had left and it was all I could do to finish the
set. I was so pissed at myself for allowing you out of my sight again.”
“Why
are you telling me this?” I ask him.
“I
need you to trust me.” He grabs my hand, placing it in his lap. “I can’t tell
you where I was Friday night, at least not yet. But believe me Sadie, I wasn’t
with anyone else. You’re the only girl who consumes my thoughts, my dreams, and
my mind. Please trust me when I say there is no one else,” his voice is
desperate, saturating his soft brown eyes.
A
big part of me believes him. My thoughts go to Jessa and how she now trusts
guys again after what her ex-boyfriend did to her. I need to move on with my
life; it’s been over a year and I still harbor all of the hurt and remorse. If
I don’t start living my life, it is going to pass me by. Brady’s right, I never
gave him a fair shot.
“I
believe you,” I whisper, still unsure of my decision to give this a chance.
“Thank
you, Sadie.” He releases the deepest breath in relief. “Now I have one more
favor.” He peers over at me, continuing to hold my hand.
“What,
Carsen?”
“Go
on a date with me. A real date, just you and me from beginning to end,” he
asks, squeezing my hand.
I
close my eyes, willing myself to allow me to have this. Give myself the
possibility to have happiness and accept the consequences. “Yes,” I answer him.
He
picks up my hand and spreads it open, kissing my palm to his lips, and I wish
he would continue that kiss up my arm.
“I’ll
pick you up tonight at six,” he instructs.
“Tonight?
It’s Monday,” I counter.
“I’m
not waiting a whole week, Sadie.” He shakes his head and releases my hand,
placing the sketchbook back in his bag.
“Alright,”
I agree.
“Let’s
go, I’ll walk you back to the dorm.” He holds his hand out to help me up and
then keeps it firmly in his for the entire walk.
“I
have a question.” I look over to him.
“What?”
“How
did you know where I lived?”
“Hey,
I’ve got to keep some secrets to myself.” He smirks over to me, squeezing my
hand again.
“You
aren’t some stalker guy who is going to murder me tonight, are you?” I question
seriously.
“I
promise you, I’m not a stalker and I’m not going to murder you. Kidnap maybe,
but not murder,” he laughs.
LET ME IN (The Invisibles #2)
Synopsis:
**This is a STANDALONE! You do not
need to read book 1 in order to enjoy LET ME IN ***
Grant is damaged, selfish, and
undeserving of love…or so he thinks.
Jessa is happy, in love, and has
overcome her past…or so she thinks.
Grant and Jessa can’t stop thinking
about one another since being introduced at a party a month ago. And despite
their differences, they can’t seem to stay away from each other either.
However, both are hiding secrets of less-than-perfect pasts, fearing what will
happen when those mistakes come to light. As they grow closer, they each battle
their own insecurities, and neither believes that they are worthy of the kind
of love that they both still want. So if it’s true that opposites attract, what
happens when the similarities begin to surface?
Let Me In Excerpt
I shut the door
after waving goodbye to Grant and a rush of unexpected sadness smacks me. Ever
since Sadie persuaded me to move out of the dorms and into Brady’s house with
them, I’ve seen Grant every day. Although his jeans and university sweatshirt
apparel isn’t normally my preference anymore, I can’t help but notice the way
his shirt usually tightens around his biceps. And I really couldn’t help but
notice the way his shirt would rise up when he was painting, exposing a six
pack that I assume he works for on a daily basis. I also haven’t missed the way
his honey-colored hair sticks up in different directions every time he runs his
fingers through it when he seems tired or annoyed. It’s only been two short
weeks since I first met Grant, but I’m not blind to our connection with each
other. I keep reminding myself though that guys like him don’t go for girls
like me. Not to mention, I have Rob.
Rob treats me
well, better than anyone else ever has. I might not like the way he checks out
other girls when they walk by, or the way he usually walks through doors in
front of me, but he’s nicer than Jason and we are definitely attracted to one
another.
“What are you
doing?” Sam asks. Now here’s the girl for Grant. My sister’s long chestnut hair
is curled in little corkscrews with a few strands pinned back, while the rest
flows down her back. The skirt she’s wearing, which looks like she ironed it
this morning, is paired with a cute matching sweater. She and Grant would make
the most adorable little preppy babies together.
“Nothing … why?”
I ask her.
“You’ve been
leaning against that front door for the past five minutes,” she laughs, and I
quickly remove my hand that still rests on the doorknob.
“Just thinking,”
I answer, starting to walk back into the room.
“Not about Rob,”
she states and raises her eyebrows in question.
LET ME LOVE (The Invisibles #3)
Synopsis:
A chance encounter. An undeniable
connection. An unimaginable twist of fate.
Kailey’s life is crumbling. Her best
friend and sister, Jen, is dying, leaving her young family devastated. With
little hope of saving her, Kailey is forced to face a reality she never
expected.
Trey’s life is fun and carefree. He
loves the girls, his drums, and his friends. That’s not to say he isn’t
continuously plagued by a difficult decision made years ago—one that changed
the course of his life.
Despite the connection they make when
their paths unexpectedly cross, Kailey knows her life has no room for anyone
else right now. But regardless of how many times she pushes him away, Trey only
fights harder to make a place for him in her life and in her heart.
Trey thought he knew heartbreak, but
he had no idea until life gave him a second chance, only to snatch it away just
as fast. This time he’s determined to keep his place in the life of the ones he
loves.
Is there such a thing as fate? If so,
can Kailey and Trey hold on to one another long enough to discover there’s no
such thing as a chance encounter?
Let Me Love Excerpt
“Trey, thank you for coming, but you can leave
now,” I say coldly with no emotion. He
can’t be tied down with me, he needs to go and live a life I can no longer be a
part of.
“No, Kailey, I’m not leaving.” He stands firm,
planting his feet. Uncontrollable anger starts brewing in my veins. I’m mad he won’t listen to me and just
disappear. Can’t he see it’s the best for him to forget us?
My hand rests on the lock; ready to twist it
open when he steps forward. He turns me around to face him and cages me between
his arms against the door. “Trey,” I argue, but he presses his lips to mine and
an immediate raging desire seeps into my every pore. As much as my body screams
to him, anger still lingers that he’s forcing me to be callous and cruel.
He places his hands on either side of my face,
continuing to kiss me as though he’s starving for only my mouth. Instinctively,
the irrational, live life in the moment Kailey that he easily pries out of me
appears. Something only my sister and her family could accomplish until he came
into my life. “Please,” he whispers, and my body starts to sway in his strong
hold, as he travels his lips over to my earlobe and down my throat.
“Stop it, Trey, leave me alone,” I cruelly
spout, placing my hands on his chest, trying to push him back, but he only
grips tighter.
“You know you don’t want me to.” He trusts his
keen instincts because they’re usually always right when it comes to me.
