​If he kisses me right now, I’ll drown.

Every sip of air is shallow and burning, because in the arms of my best friend’s brother, I’m the closest I’ve ever been to sin.

His eyes flick to my lips, and I remember the first time I tasted him, seven years ago before I left this town and vowed never to return. His hands grip my waist, and I remember the pain when he rejected me, when my entire world crashed down at his command. His jaw clenches, and my senses come alive with one stinging reminder.

I’m not his to kiss, and he’s not mine.

I tried to stay away from Tyler Wagner, putting an entire country between us. But when his sister’s wedding brings us back to the same town, to the same house, I can’t avoid him, no matter how hard I try.

They're two sharks in a fish tank...

JARED

If I had a dollar for every time Banner Morales made my heart skip a beat...
The heart everyone assumes is frozen over.
Her anger is... arousing.
Every glare from those fire-spitting eyes, every time she grits her teeth, gets me... well, you know.
If I had a dollar for every time she's put me in my place, I'd be an even richer man.
I'm a successful sports agent because I assume "no" means you'll think about it.
I'm sure what you meant to say is "Coming right up."
They say even rich men don't always get what they want, but those men don't know how to play the game. The trick is to keep them guessing.
Take Banner. She assumes she's winning, but this game?

B. Celeste is an amazing writer and this is proven through her brilliant books. Where the Little Birds Go is the first in a brand new, forbidden romance duet and I highly recommend it! This is especially true if you enjoy Hollywood/Actor romances.
Rating: ★★★★★
​Release Date: January 10, 2020

Series: Book 1 in the Duet
Pages: 212 pages

​
When best selling author Kinley Thomas gets the deal of a lifetime to see her book turned into a movie, the last person she expects to be cast as the leading role is Corbin Callum.

After years of living the dreams that tore them apart, Hollywood will soon force them back together. Because before Corbin became America's biggest star, he was first Kinley's biggest mistake.

Too bad for them, they never learn.

** This is book 1 in the duet and the books must be read in order. The book is forbidden, there is cheating, but it's so worth it! 

​Book 2 releases on January 29th!

I love you; I loathe you

Jackson Thorn was my best friend and worst enemy, but that didn't stop me from wanting him.
From first words to high school halls, our childhood years braided a bond that wove in a direction neither of us could predict or outgrow.

Forbidden became a word we ignored.
It wasn't that we didn't care.
It was that we cared too much. 
We had it all planned out.
We thought we could make it.
We thought we'd been careful.
But all we managed to do was prolong the inevitable.
Our destruction.

College parties, beer, and one-night stands—that was my life.

Now, I hunt down criminals, ethically or not, but if no one’s asking, then I’m not telling. Drinking and women are still included, though I can’t seem to forget the girl who almost gave me her virginity. She would’ve until I realized she was too young, and I wasn’t looking to get thrown into jail.

In a twist of fate, we’re reunited, except she’s no longer underage but still equally off-limits. After ignoring her relentless advances, she starts to wear me down. I only have so much willpower when she’s around, running her smart mouth and showing off her impeccable dance moves.

Just when my restraint starts to crumble, my poor choices finally catch up with me, putting us both in danger.

This is one of my favorite books of 2019! It is the first book in a forbidden romance duet and is a must read! I can't wait for The Man I Need to be releases on June 13th!
Rating: ★★★★★
​Release Date: April 26, 2019
Genre: Forbidden Romance

Series: The Ward Duet #1
Pages: 412 pages
Format: eBook. Borrowed from Kindle Unlimited. 
It started as a simple search for a landscape designer...

I wanted a beautiful backyard for my new home and my neighbors suggested I look into Ward Landscaping & Design.

The owner had no pictures of himself on his website, just a portfolio of nice outdoor sitting areas, pools, and vibrant gardens that I'd always dreamed of having.

Of course I hired him.

I expected to meet an average guy, but Mr. Marcel Ward is far from your average man. He's handsome, and well-built, and his smile--though a rare trait--is truly infectious.

He's every woman's dream--a handsome, older man who doesn't mind getting down and dirty to create something beautiful all because of his passion for it. Unfortunately that lucky woman can't be me.
