The Guardian's Angel
Their Angels, Book 1
James
I’ve only had guardianship of my three-month-old nephew, Grayson, for four days, and I’m already failing miserably. I don’t know how to help him since he refuses to eat and sleep until sheer exhaustion pulls him under for an hour or two at a time. I pace by the front door, waiting for my neighbor from across the street with children of her own to come over after she offered to help when she saw how panicked I was.
Except it’s not her who appears on my front porch at midnight—it’s her daughter, Shayla…the woman I’ve been obsessed with since I moved into the neighborhood a year ago. She smiles sleepily in her pajamas and fuzzy pink slippers, haloed by the porch lights like an angel—my angel.
Shayla
My mysterious, older neighbor—the one I can’t stop ogling—offers me an afternoon babysitting job on the spot after I get Grayson to settle. I agree so long as I can bring my daughter, Lainey. James has a momentary freakout when he finds out that I’m a senior in high school, though I’m not sure why, but the stricken look is wiped from his face when I tell him I’m eighteen.
The more time Lainey and I spend with James and Grayson, the harder it is to leave them at the end of each night, especially when James starts calling me his angel. The closer we get, the more we feel like a family—four pieces of a puzzle.
But I can’t let myself continue to get lost in James, no matter how right it feels to be with him, because what we’re doing is risky. We’re playing with fire, and if we’re not careful, our four-piece puzzle will soon become five.

It was stumble over my feet at first sight when I met and bowed to Lady Eden, as if I were a knight and she a queen straight out of a medieval fairy tale, at our best friends’ wedding rehearsal dinner.

Bailey
I’ve been in love with my dad’s best friend, Isaiah, since I was thirteen years old, which is when I started planning our future together—down to the song we would dance to at our wedding and the paint color of our bedroom walls. After five years of Isaiah pushing me away and breaking my heart, I hoped he would sweep me into his arms when I turned eighteen and confess he was secretly in love with me…Instead, I received a handwritten letter from the love of my life that shattered every dream I had of the future.
Isaiah
My best friend, Sherman, and his family meant as much to me as my own, though I kept my distance from Sherman’s young daughter, Bailey. Everyone expected her to grow out of her crush on me and move on, but she only grew more obsessed as time passed. After making a mistake that I deeply regretted when she came to me on the night of her eighteenth birthday, I knew what I had to do.
In the almost four years since I’d last seen Bailey, I deluded myself into thinking she couldn’t possibly be as beautiful as I remembered. I was so wrong. I tried to push her away, just as I always did, but the tempting little angel’s schemes to get my attention finally worked…and now, she’s not the only one obsessed.

His Vivacious Angel
Their Angels, Book 3
Autumn
After focusing solely on my education and graduating college two years early, I plan to “sow my wild oats,” as I relentlessly tease my dad. My sisters might have married their now-husbands early in their adult lives, but I'm not ready to settle down—especially not with the single father, a decade older than me, whom I first accused of being a stalker when he followed me home…but who turned out to be not only my new neighbor, but also my new supervisor at work.
Teasing him as much as I do my family is fun in the beginning, but the more I get to know him, and his three adorable children, the more his grumpy charm weakens my resolve. Starting my “wild oats” phase with him is a terrible idea, but one I can no longer fight. I just hope I don’t get too attached…any more than I already am.
Forest
The infuriating, vivacious young woman from across the street might look like an angel, but she certainly doesn’t act like one. As our lives become more intertwined, however, our resistance to each other breaks down, and a vision of a future I didn’t think I wanted sharpens. Considering our age difference and the fact that her dad is my boss, she’s the last person I should look twice at, yet I can’t seem to get her off my mind…or out of my heart.

Lainey
I thought when we turned eighteen and went off to college, I could finally escape the boy I’ve been secretly in love with the wrong way my entire life. But instead of getting time and space away from Grayson, we’re closer than ever, living in an off-campus apartment—now without the daily supervision that kept my longing in check. Grayson and I might not share a drop of blood, but we do share a last name, and confessing my feelings for him would completely destroy everyone’s lives. It’s already destroyed mine.
So I fight the attraction, as I have been doing all my life, but it won’t be long until I have to give up. Because my love for him isn’t the only secret I’ve been keeping to myself. I have an even bigger one growing by the day, and time is running out before everyone learns the truth…whether I’m ready or not.

I shouldn’t be tracking Lainey’s every move, every expression, but I can’t figure out how to stop. Especially not after that one magical night that she made me promise to forget, which I never have, and never will.

Ah, fuck. I am in love with my best friend, aren’t I?
