The Right Thing

by H.B. Jasick

Ben Jacobson was the boy of my dreams.
The boy next door that was always looking out for me.

I fell in love with him.
He never found out.

He did what he was supposed to do.
What we all expected him to do.
He chose her.
He didn't pick me.

Choosing her was the right thing to do.

Wasn't it?
I don't think so.
I think we were all wrong.

About the author

Hello Everyone!

I was told that I needed to introduce myself in the third person, but I tried it, and it just wasn’t for me. I like to break the rules a little bit anyway, so I’m just going to do this the way I want to.

My name is HB Jasick, I write romance, and I’m probably the biggest book simp that you’ll ever meet. I love stories. All stories. If I’m not reading them, I’m watching them on TV.

I will read just about anything, but there are a few things that I love more than others. My top five would probably be Enemies to lovers, Dystopian plots, Fae books, Taboo themes, and Angst. I believe that readers should never be ashamed for what they like to read, so that’s exactly how I write.

So far, I’ve written Romantic Comedies, Contemporary, and Dark Erotica. I love writing goofy characters and awkward situations, but I also like my heroes to be slightly Alpha, and my heroines to be smart, sassy, and maybe a little strong-willed. I don’t like to stay in just one trope, so I write whatever I’m currently in the mood for.

I live in Springfield, Missouri with my husband, our two daughters, and two Weiner Dogs that basically run our entire house. Some of my favorite things, besides books and movies, include wine, sushi, coffee, making lists, dachshunds, random capitalization, and watching my daughters cheer, and play soccer.
