A Simple Resolution

Not So Simple #2

by Ash Jackson

Wyatt Westfall is the tatted bad boy next door—her brother’s best friend and the 6’5” Viking who can turn any room into a party. Cora Beckett is the artist with big talent, bigger dreams, and a habit of running straight toward trouble.

One kiss ignites something neither of them can bury.

But when the fallout sends her chasing a fresh start in New York and him drowning in the mistakes he swore he’d never repeat, distance becomes its own kind of storm.

Can the playboy next door actually clean up his act and win over the girl he was never supposed to touch?

Told in dual timeline, dual POV, this is a second chance, friends-to-lovers romance about timing, desire, and the one person you can't outrun—even if you try.

Some people are worth waiting for. Some love stories take years to write. And some resolutions are anything but simple.

About the author

Ash Jackson grew up just outside of Chicago’s Chinatown and now calls the suburbs home, where she lives with her high school sweetheart—now husband of over 16 years—and their three endlessly energetic boys. Ash is a lifelong storyteller and romantic at heart.

When she’s not writing, she’s usually baking things her kids won’t eat, knitting yet another scarf that she won’t wear, or binge watching six seasons of a show instead of committing to a three hour movie.
