All is Fair in Love and Texting …

2021

All is fair in love and texting ... When Aimee Tompkins loaded up her old catering van and pulled into Manhattan, she had her sights set on becoming one of the best (and most lucrative) caterers to ever serve crudités and creampuffs in the Big Apple. But after a year of leaving fliers all over town, she’s not only running out of money, she’s running low on hope. So when she lands a gig at a big architecture firm, Aimee’s certain her luck is about to change. Noel Fitzwilliam is pitching the most important project of his life—the type of project architects dream of. Everything has to go right, so when he finds the new caterer naked in his office bathroom right before the meeting, he’s torn between being thrilled and being extremely irritated. He doesn’t have time for romance, no matter how incredible she looks without her clothes on. A mix-up means Aimee is accidentally given his cell number instead of his assistant’s. So when she starts texting Noel about how much she hates him, he decides to have a little fun with her. The last thing he expects is for her to turn his world upside-down. But that’s exactly what happens as the pair start sharing their deepest secrets and their greatest fears, and Noel discovers he can share so much more via text than he can in person.

Gabriel Oliver Daly agreed to mentor a friend’s younger sister. Unbeknownst to him, after losing her phone, said sister uses her dog walker’s phone to text him about a job offer.

May the Text be With You …

2021

I'm Serafina Lopez, and I'm an astrologer. No, not the airy-fairy type who wears long flowy skirts and enormous hoop earrings—you know, unless I want to. I'm an uber-serious businesswoman. My popular lifestyle app, Live for you Star Sign, is getting so big, I've just been asked to be a guest on New York's most-watched morning show. This TV segment is going to launch my career into the stratosphere. Imagine my surprise when I show up on set to find out that I'm not the only guest. They've also invited astrophysicist Ben Williams from NASA. (I'm not sure if you know this, but astrologers and rocket scientists aren't exactly sympatico.) It's 100% hate at first sight (with maybe a tiny dose of lust thrown in.) Too bad he's a total jerk who slings insults at my career. Our explosive chemistry sets records for the network's viewing audience, which means we're asked to host a weekly segment . . . together. Unable to turn down the career opportunity of a lifetime, I agree to work with Dr. Grumpy McGorgeous Nerd Pants. Just when I think it can't get any worse, the network sends us to Florida for a conference. When we arrive, we find out we'll be stuck sharing the same hotel room. And that's when it happens. Somewhere in the haze of hating him, I wind up wanting him. But there's no way I can fall for someone who doesn't respect my beliefs.

It's a Dog Text Dog World…

2021

It's a Dog Text World ... Autumn Jones is at a crossroads. With no job offers in sight, she can either return to Koshkonong, Wisconsin to work at her dad’s feed store or she can move to New York and help her older sister Helen coordinate the Manhattan Kennel Club Show. She and Helen may fight like cats and dogs, but Autumn would rather live with a thousand Helens than go home after seven years of college. Jack Campbell is the veterinarian to Manhattan’s elite. Despite their adoration, he does not love them back. In fact, he’s vowed never to date anyone who walks through the front door of his clinic. He spends his days caring for pampered poodles sporting diamond encrusted collars and placating their high maintenance owners. When he meets Autumn, he assumes she’s going to be another client with more money than brains. Autumn is thrown into a bizarre world of highly competitive rich women who will do anything to win the coveted title of Best in Show at Manhattan’s most exclusive competition. With her haughty sister breathing down her neck, and a high-strung poodle following her everywhere she goes, she doesn’t have time for love, even if she does find herself face-to-face with America’s hottest vet every day. Will Autumn run back to Wisconsin with her tail between her legs? Will Jack find out that appearances can be deceiving? Will Helen’s dog Fifi win Best in Show? Find out in the hysterical fourth edition of the Accidentally in Love Series, Text in Show.

Text and Confused

It's hate at first sight…

2021

It's hate at first text. Or is it...? I'm Toni Capella, aka the girl who always falls for the wrong guy—tattoos, muscles on top of muscles, and an inability to hold down a decent job. After my last relationship went up in smoke, I decided to change my type. When my boss hires contractor Cooper Flint, I immediately strike him off my list of potential love interests (no matter how much I want him). Cooper embodies every bad boy trait there is. That's why I set my sights on our new accountant, Milton Rinks. Nice, sweet, and totally boring. Milton is so far away from my regular type, I decide he must be perfect for me. In hopes that he might be Mr. Right, I am determined to take things turtle slow. After scoring his number from my boss, I find out he's a total dream via text. I get him to agree to start out with a messaging-only courtship. Via text, Milton is interesting, funny, and surprisingly sexy. I'm hoping that getting to know him better will make me physically more attracted to him. But then I find out that I was given Cooper's number instead of Milton's. I'm falling for the exact guy I vowed to avoid! Before I can change my mind, I break things off with Cooper and begin to flirt with Milton. I even agree to go on a Harry Potter cosplay dinner cruise with him on the Hudson for Valentine's Day. Yeah, I'm cringing too. Then Milton offers to get Cooper tickets as well. Cooper is quick to tell me that he's bringing his gorgeous (not to mention nasty) designer, whom I hate. With a passion. Let's face it, there's about a 50/50 chance I'm going to snap and toss her overboard. Cooper too. That is unless I jump into his arms and kiss him senseless. What could possibly go wrong?
