The Nightmare Ex-Boyfriend Before Christmas
A second-chance redemption romance in the spirit of A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, except the Scrooge in this book is a young, hot, college football star turned business tycoon.
Channing Peyton screwed me over in college.
Every way you can imagine, the good ways and the bad.
We had two passionate and unforgettable years together, until he blindsided me for no reason, and with no explanation, kicking me to the curb like yesterday’s trash.
He ruined all other men for me, and almost ruined me.
But I’m stronger than that.
I don’t need him.
My biggest regret was not kicking him to the curb first.
To this day, I still wonder: was there a reason he dumped me?
Or did he never love me?
I’ll never know.
But you know what?
I don’t care.
I’m done with that man.
Now it’s ten years later and I’m back home for the holidays in King City, the town where I grew up and we both went to college. It’s also the epicenter of our past scandal that nearly killed me and my parents when it broke.
Trust me, it made the local TV news every night for two weeks. One night, it went national.
Guess who never left King City?
Channing.
The curb turd.
As relentless as he was on the field, I would’ve thought he’d go on to play in the NFL. He never did. Knee injury. Oh, the cliche.
Small pond, meet big fish.
Only this fish has grown bigger than anyone ever expected, built up his own business empire. Turns out he’s better at business than he ever was at football, and that’s saying something. Despite his knee injury, he managed to keep his college football body, abs and all. Wherever he goes, it’s raining money and marriage proposals.
When he finds out I’m home for the holidays, he just has to come knocking at my parents’ house bearing meaningless gifts.
News flash, unless he’s hoping for an immaculate conception, he has another thing coming️, and it definitely won’t be me.

COVER MODEL is available NOW!!
Ready for some Raunch?
Then you'll want to read Cover Model, my latest. It'll get you all steamed up:
Cover Model
They called him Connor HUGE.
Connor Hughes f**ked his way through every girl in my high school.
Except me.
We hated each other.
That arrogant a**hole insulted me, tormented me, and ruined me without ever laying a finger on me.
After graduating near the top of my class, I escaped to UCLA, got my degree, and threw myself into a career as a serious journalist. But I never forgot the damage Connor did.
At least I’ll never have to see him again.
Until my editor at Trending Magazine tasks me with writing a tell-all article about Connor. Turns out my insufferable bad boy nemesis grew into the ultra-gorgeous model whose perfect body steams up the covers of half the romance novels on the bestseller lists.
Now I’m stuck shadowing him all weekend long at the world’s largest Romance Convention. I’m forced to watch in disgust as 45,000 women throw themselves at him and worship his shirtless body while he taunts me incessantly.
We hate each other as much today as we did seven years ago. But I can’t stop stealing glances at his perfect abs and perfect a**.
My better judgment tells me to drop everything and run, but something deep inside me is dying to know if he’s as HUGE as the rumors…
***Cover Model is a steamy standalone with an HEA***
Get it while it's on sale for $0.99 USD!!!
