Brooke St. James

Marley's scarf was the first thing that caught Dominic's attention, but her smile was what held it. Dominic didn't get to know enough about her during that first meeting. He knew that he had fallen for her, but he had no way to see her again.

I knew the Blair brothers. It was impossible to grow up in Astoria and not be familiar with them.
There were four boys in the Blair family, and all of them had that certain something. They were smart, athletic, funny, and gorgeous....

She's out of your league. It was a cliché term and one that no man ever wanted to hear. But it defined Micah's relationship with Claire Alexander. She was so out of his league that he had given up hope from day one.

Ozzy Abramson had made a name for himself as a photographer. His specialty was portraiture, and he built beautiful scenes around the people he photographed. He had a gift for saying just the right things to get his subjects to look their best.

Lines had been drawn and sides had been taken years ago. The King family did not interact with the Elliot family, and neither did the Grahams nor the Castros. The Elliots had burned those bridges decades ago, and none of the Bank Street crew made mention of them.

Owen Atkinson had traveled extensively, but this was his first time in Montana. He was there as a co-star in a movie being filmed in one of the most picturesque places he had ever seen. He was focused, driven, and determined. Meeting a woman while filming was the furthest thing from his mind.

I wasn't the only woman in the world who had been cheated on. I certainly wasn't the only woman who had sworn off men because of it. I was, however, one of the few who was willing to stick to my guns about it....

My mother wrote a young adult novel that eventually became a Hollywood blockbuster hit. Somehow, during production of the movie, I became friends with the star. Heath Vick was Hollywood's favorite leading man—a heartthrob, for sure.

I always wanted to live at the beach. It had been my dream since I was a little girl. I longed to experience the sand and sea. My heart's desire was to become a famous artist who painted scenes with palm trees and blue waters. Finally, I was moving to a coastal town....

I had a crush on Evan King when we were kids. If I'm being totally honest, I had a crush on him all throughout high school, too.

I was all set to embark on the most epic adventure of my life. I was ready for anything. My life had been filled with predictability since the day I was born, but that was about to change. I had devised a plan. Over the course of the next five years, I would live in five different cities....

The first time I met Daniel King, he had a busted nose. He was also a couple of years younger than me, which seemed like a lot back then. I had always thought of him as more of a little brother or friend....

I had always dreamed of falling in love. I was ready and eager to find my happily ever after, but there was just one problem. The man I so desperately wanted to fall for was not available....

Finding love was last on the list of things I needed to do. I had some personal things to work out before I could even think about searching for my soul mate. From where I stood at the moment, that seemed like something that might never happen. However, I couldn’t help but notice August.

Isaac Alexander had just experienced the most vivid and stirring dream of his life. The dream, a t-shirt, and a woman he just met were all oddly connected. But the woman was gone just as quickly as she appeared, and he only came to realize she was his destiny after it was too late.

I was in high school when I fell in love with Bradley Clark, the star of the football team. Things happened with us, and I ended up being homeschooled during my senior year. I am now the single mother of a three-and-a-half-year-old boy named Mac....

It was a surreal evening when I finally got to see Micah Lacey live in concert. He played a sold-out show, and I had front row tickets. It was like nothing I had ever experienced before.

Laney King had been in a relationship with Michael Elliot since they were in high school. Everyone in Galveston assumed they were destined to be together. Michael wasn't true to her, but he never thought she’d find out he had been unfaithful while he was out of town.

Bailey had gone home to Memphis for a few days and decided to meet up with five of her closest friends while she was there. She expected a few laughs and some light-hearted conversation, and had no idea they had a proposition for her. They desperately needed her to come back home for the summer....

For some, it's love at first sight. But things don't always work like that. Sometimes people take time getting to know one another before sparks begin to fly. And people can even fall in love with someone they once considered their enemy.
