Running on Empty

Martine Roberts and Elliot Tillman’s childhood friendship was intense. When they bump into each other again thirty years later, sneaking out of an apartment after one-night stands with a pair of roommates, all their feelings come rushing back. 

Elliot needs a place to stay, and Martine needs a roommate. It should be simple, but it’s not friendship simmering between them. 

Growing up in Key West, rum distiller Martine has friends and family to spare, but her deepest heart she keeps to herself. 

With her career in the Coast Guard, Elliot’s never had a permanent address and didn’t mind, until moving in with Martine gives her a home. Now she wants to chart a different course with a woman who likes her relationships short and seasonal? Perfect.

Jen Winslow has her hands full raising her son, dealing with her ex-wife, and managing a career that takes more energy than it gives. She’s spent a lifetime being the strong one, and occasionally playing the hero. Case in point? Meeting Madison at a wedding and saving her from a run-in with the woman who ruined her life. But the more time Jen spends with Madison, the more it feels like she’s the one in need of rescuing.

Can the promise of love survive the realities of life, or is it just another example of too good to be true?

Their professional relationship quickly turns personal when Lindsey agrees to pose for Rebekiah. With every click of the shutter, Rebekiah finds it harder and harder to keep Lindsey in focus without getting too close.

It's never too late for second chances, even when you're Back to Square One.

Rowan Thomas wakes up after an accident with no memory of the last few years—including the end of her relationship with Evie Price. Evie is hers and everything is soft kisses and inside jokes. Only everyone insists they broke up years ago.

To try to cure her amnesia, Rowan tags along on an annual girls trip she apparently stopped attending (weird). Frozen margaritas and side-splitting laughter sounds like medicine, right?

But when Evie shows up looking gorgeous, and everyone starts acting a bit too cagey, what really happened between her and Evie isn't the only secret in play. And the more Rowan uncovers, the more she's sure of what her heart remembers.

But as secrets are shared and their hearts begin to beat as one, will Brogan find she is closer to home than thinks?

Sam Travis has built her life around words, and they’ve abandoned her. The medication that keeps her functional also silences her creativity and leaves her feeling like a fraud.

Lisa Sutherland is a devoted preschool teacher and the kind of neighbor who smiles while mowing the best lawn on the block. Beneath her kindness, though, Lisa is working her way through a painful divorce.
