Not Just Friends Books

One drunken night, Shoshanna Clarke let her inhibitions go and said yes to Toby Mason. But it wasn’t just one night of fun because sleeping with the town bad boy ended up completely changing her life. Everything changed for Toby after the night he shared with Shoshanna. He knew he’d never want anyone else, but fear of scaring her away with his need to keep her close left Toby not saying anything. She's a good girl, and he’d been known for being the bad boy. But before Toby could tell Shoshanna he wanted her for more than that one encounter, he was forced to leave town due to a family emergency. Finding out she was pregnant after a one-night-stand wasn’t ideal, especially not when the father left town and she had no way of contacting him. It wasn't until Toby's return that she had to finally face her new reality and tell him everything. But was Toby ready to be a father? Was he ready to start a family with her? Or was their one night all he wanted? Reader note: This was previously published as Her Best Mistake. It’s been recovered and re-edited, but the story itself is the same.

Ace Renaldo and Lauren Dunn have known each other since high school, and she’s loved him for longer than she’d ever admit. But the darkness that Ace has in his life has changed the boy she once knew. He’s harder, damaged. Scarred. And she doesn’t know if any amount of love could penetrate the thick wall he’s built around himself and his heart. To block the pain in his life, Ace fought. He needed the violence as an outlet for the agony he harbored inside. Before Lauren had come into his world, Ace knew all too well what being alone felt like. She became everything to him, a light in his darkness. But he feared he’s far too scarred to ever be what she deserved. But she’s everything to him, his entire world, and he wanted to be a good man for her, to love her in the way he always wanted to. But will giving in to their mutual feelings ruin their lifelong friendship? Reader note: This was previously published as His Greatest Pain. Although it has been re-edited and parts of the plot tweaked, the story itself is the same. There may be material that is sensitive to some readers. This is not a safe read.
