Mixed Messages: The Complete Series
The bestselling Mixed Messages series is now available in one collection. Set in London, it follows a group of friends as they each find love with a lot of heat and humour along the way.
Rule Breaker
Dylan has worked for Gabe for two years. Two long years of sarcastic comments. Two long years of insults and having to redo the coffee pot four times in the mornings to meet his exacting standards. Not surprisingly, he has devoted a lot of time to thinking of inventive ways to murder him. Dylan has thought of everything from stabbing him with a cake fork to garrotting him with his expensive tie.
But then a chance encounter opens his eyes to the attraction that has always lain between them, concealed by the layers of antipathy. There are only two problems - Gabe is still a bastard, and he makes wedding planners look like hardened pessimists.
Deal Maker
Jude is a highly successful model but a very reluctant one. His life is full of casual hook-ups with pretty men in glamorous locations, but it’s still empty. Nevertheless, circumstances decreed a long time ago that this was his path, so he’s resolutely stayed on it and accepted his fate with good grace.
However, an accident at home has him making a new deal and accepting the offer of help from an unlikely source. It leads to an unexpected summer of falling in love with a larger than life man and his child.
Risk Taker
Henry is the odd man out. All of his friends are settling down, and his reputation as the Hook-Up King of London seems more like a curse than a blessing these days. Especially when it keeps photojournalist Ivo, his best friend and the brilliant man he’s loved since they were fifteen, at arm’s length.
But Henry knows that’s where Ivo wants him. So putting aside his feelings, he decides to give up casual sex and look for the real deal. After all, he has no chance with Ivo - or does he?

I love this series so much.

Contemporary romance is by far not my first love. But when life is overwhelming busy consisting of 14+hr days for about 10 weeks, it can be just what I need (with so little time to read daily) . It's even better when it is a bundle too.
These particular stories were perfect for my needs. True feeling relationships with flawed men, built steadily over time, and well developed. Each couple was unique. The focus on the relationship. The sex style unique to the couple, so it does not feel repetitive. For me, these are the epitome of contemporary romance. I never lost interest despite it not being sci-fi / fantasy. I loved the couples. I was vested in their relationship. The writing was strong. I would definitely recommend these.

A wonderful series.
Mixed Messages is another wonderful series from this amazing author. I loved all the boys and their stories, which were full of fun, banter, steam and wonderfully happy endings. I can’t recommend this highly enough.

Lily Again.
Her books are funny, sharp, touching and as is usual in the genre, hopeful. Nothing wrong with that. Her characters pretty much always make you wish they were real and that you could hang out with them

2.5 Stars. I found it dull and formulaic. It’s written well enough, with decent characters. But it didn’t grab my interest, as there isn’t much story, it’s just a romance. I didn’t finish it.
