In this episode of Life Be Lifing: there is a new release date for More Than Friends: A Second Chance Friends to Lovers Romance. You’ll have to wait just a few more weeks for Toby and Leilani’s love story. The new release date is Friday, January 10, 2025.
I’m having so much fun with these two. Leilani is a mess, but I love her. And Toby is such a cinnamon roll sweetheart who just wants to take care of the people he loves. Both characters are on a complex journey of growth and self-discovery as they discover new things about each other. I love that for them, and I can’t wait for you all to meet them
How are things going for you this week? Tell me what you’ve been up to and what you’re reading here.
Best friends. Only one bed. What’s the worst that could happen?
Leilani
Toby and I dated in high school. The romance didn’t last, but I got a friend for life. I’m a session singer, he’s an A&R rep, and we live on opposite coasts. Still, we’ve been best friends since high school. Okay, yes there’s occasionally some innocent flirting, but nothing serious. Neither of us would risk our friendship by getting involved again. But one long overdue wedding, a couple bottles of champagne, a few too many shots, and a little flirting turns into one incredible night. It was a mistake. And it definitely…probably…won’t happen again.
Toby
For a long time, I accepted that Leilani and I were better as friends than lovers. But lately, our “innocent” flirtations incite the filthiest thoughts, and I can’t stop wanting her. When playful teasing turns to a heated kiss, it ends in a night neither of us will ever forget. Leilani declares it a mistake, but I propose friendship with benefits, and she agrees. But the truth is I can’t ignore my growing feelings for her anymore. I’m determined to prove that we could be so much more than friends and that taking a chance on finding forever is worth the risk.
One unique agency. Three best friends. And the three women who turn their worlds upside down.
Welcome to the At Your Service agency, where you can hire a man for anything from landscape design to being your fake boyfriend. But finding the right man for the job just might lead to happily ever after.
Boyfriend for Hire: When the one-night stand who ghosted At Your Service’s VP of marketing shows up out of the blue asking him to pose as her boyfriend for a game-changing work function, he can’t say no. And neither of them can resist their growing feelings for each other.
Fiancé for Hire: He’s a model, actor, and budding filmmaker. She’s a former professional basketball player. Neither of them was looking for love…until his matchmaking aunt helped them find each other.
Date for Hire: When a record company exec’s new landscape designer shows up at her front door, the last thing she expects is to revisit her painful past. Will she get a second chance at romance with her unrequited high school crush? Or is she destined for another heartbreak?
I’m so grateful for the wonderful reception you’ve given Nick and Emerie’s story, The Soulmate Project. Many of you have asked if Kassie will get her own story. Others have asked about Izzy and Blaze.
Here’s what I can tell you right now: I absolutely have stories on deck for Kassie, Blaze, and Izzy. How those books will be published is a completely different story. As of now, there are no plans to publish more in the series with the current publisher. But I am committed to giving those characters their own stories. In fact, I started both Kassie’s and Blaze’s stories several years ago. So the question is simply when and how those stories will be delivered. For that, stay tuned.
