Nooky

by Lane Martin

Nate Hastings is a jerk.
But it wasn’t so long ago that he was everything.
Football hero.
Most popular boy in school.
My neighbor.
And my secret crush.
I waited with my nose in a book for him to notice me all those years ago.
Instead, he gave me a terrible nickname and left town to become wildly successful like I always knew he would.
The only thing missing in his life was love, which he tried to find on a reality dating show.
His public humiliation drives him back home.
That and the letters I’ve been writing him warning him that his historic house was in shambles.
I should have anticipated he’d show up to fix it.
But I never expected this.
The man who destroyed me is doing more than rebuilding his family’s home.
He’s trying to steal the key to my heart.
Nooky is a complete stand-alone in the ABCs of Love series where one author a week will deliver a brand-new story for you to rediscover your ABCs.

About the author

I never thought that I would write a novel, although my English teacher my freshman year in college told me that he would hunt me down if I wasn’t published by the time I was thirty. Thirty came and went. I was busy being a wife and working mother of two and nobody came looking for me.

I doubt my sister thought she was about to change my life forever when she got me a book of “Mommy porn” for my birthday in 2012, but that’s exactly what she did. After reading the first book in the trilogy, I rushed out and got the other two books. I became obsessed and read the series several times before learning about Fanficiton. Apparently, I wasn’t the only one who couldn’t get enough. The idea fascinated me and I thought, “I can do that.” I was a nervous wreck when I posted my first story, a one shot about my new favorite couple. One story lead to another and then another. My readers encouraged me to write something original, so that‘s what I did. Thank you to everyone who encouraged me. I couldn’t have done it without you.

I love reading, writing, traveling, and spending time with my family.

Thank you for going on this journey with me.
