Born and raised around Houston Texas, Jessica spent most of her life complaining about the heat, humidity, and all around pain in the ass weather. It was only as an adult that she quickly realized the cost of living in Houston made up for not being able to breathe when she stepped outside. That’s why God created central air, after all.

Jessica is the mother of a perfect little boy–she refuses to accept that he inherited her attitude and sarcastic nature no matter what her husband says.

In addition to being a wife and mom, she’s also a wino, a coffee addict, and an avid lover of all types of books–romances still being her all time favs. Her husband likes to claim that reading is her obsession but she just says it’s a passion…there’s a difference. Not that she’d expect a boy to understand.

Jessica has been writing since she was a little girl, but thankfully grew out of drawing her own pictures for her stories before ever publishing her first book. Because an artist she is not.

the cover for Personal Foul!

Releasing October 20, 2022

I don’t think I can sink any lower …

Somehow I’ve ended up blackmailing a girl into pretending to be my girlfriend.

Let me back up. 

I’ve known Charity since high school. Well, we went to the same exclusive prep school, anyway. We weren’t friends, though. 

Now we’re at the same university, and her friend group keeps crossing paths with mine, much to her obvious dismay. Given how vocal she is about disliking me, it’s become a hobby of mine to needle her more anytime the opportunity presents itself. She makes it so easy, getting all red and fiery every time I make even a halfhearted effort to rile her up.

She’s a little spitfire. And maybe I’m a masochist, but I kinda dig it. 

Problem is, she clearly hates me. I only make it worse when she begs me to keep a secret I stumble upon, and instead of saying sure, no problem, I tell her she has to clean my apartment. Then one of my teammates discovers her there, assumes we’re dating, and before I know it …

We are. Or at least we’re pretending to. 

Problem is, I actually like spending time with her, even though she hates my guts. Except the longer we spend time together, the less she seems to hate me after all … 

And the line between pretend and reality starts to blur. 

Can we overcome our terrible beginning and make our fake relationship real?
Or will all our secrets tear us apart in the end?

Personal Foul is a full length standalone enemies to lovers romance featuring a hot, bossy football players and the shy girl from high school he blackmails into being his girlfriend. Full of heat and heart with an HEA guaranteed!

Read Now!

Escape with the Meet Cute Book Club, where meet cutes don’t happen only between the pages of romance novels, and one by one, all the members find their own happily ever afters.

Mila
I never thought I’d have a real-life meet cute, but the minute Crossland Parker walks into my life, it starts feeling like I’m living in the pages of a romance novel.

He sweeps me off my feet, and I find myself falling fast and hard for the rough around the edges mechanic. He’s a troubled bad boy with a heart of gold.

Cross fits into my life effortlessly, even sharing my love of books. He’s everything I didn’t know I wanted in a man. Attentive, sweet, a little bit possessive. He’s also my biggest source of support when I decide I want to buy the building next door so I can expand my business. So what if he has a criminal record? No one is perfect.

Unless you ask my stepfather. He expects nothing less than perfection, but not even I could ever come close.

Cross

After spending too many years wandering when I was released from prison, I came back to Abbott Ridge to start over.

I wasn’t expecting Mila Santos to fall into my arms, but I’m irrevocably drawn to the curvy little beauty who owns the bookstore. She’s a good girl, too good for a guy like me.

Our relationship develops faster than most, but I spent too many years of my life locked up. Now that I’m out, I refuse to waste a single second. I’m still not sure I deserve someone as sweet as Mila, but if she accepts me and all my faults, there’s no way I’m letting her go. Only a fucking fool would do that.

My past is no secret, and I knew the day would come when someone would try to use it against me. I just didn’t expect it to happen so soon.

Is happily ever after possible when a good girl falls for the guy from the wrong side of the tracks?

The Book Boyfriend is a standalone, wrong side of the tracks romance that is part of the Meet Cute Book Club multi-author series.

Excerpt

Copyright 2022 @ Kate Stacy

She’s fucking adorable.

Mila is still standing in the spot where I left her when I pass by the bookstore’s front window.

Grinning, I toss her a wink and keep walking, picturing the beautiful blush that stains her skin when she’s flustered.

I love how affected she is by me.

I knew Mila was gorgeous when I saw her from across the street yesterday, but up close… damn.

She’s a stunner.

Easily the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.

And I get to see her again on Friday.

I came to the bookstore today hoping to see her even though I knew there was a good chance that she wasn’t available, but I had to shoot my shot. I’m fucking relieved she isn’t with somebody. It would have sucked if I put myself out there only to find out I didn’t stand a chance. I’ll admit, part of me can’t believe she agreed to go out with me, but I’m happy she did.

Halfway back to the garage, reality sets in.

What was I even thinking going in there?

Mila is sweet as hell, far too good for a roughneck like me.

I’m a felon for fuck’s sake.

No. Fuck that.

My criminal record doesn’t define me.

I have to stop letting my past rule my life. I’m more than some guy who got locked up for trying to defend someone who didn’t deserve it. I paid the price for my mistakes. I did my time and now I need to move on.

I deserve happiness as much as anyone else.

As long as I’m honest and don’t try to hide it, Mila doesn’t seem like the type that would hold my past against me. I’ll be up front with her about it and let the chips fall where they may.

I’ve got a good feeling about her.

“Who’s the girl?” Bishop asks as I walk into the garage.

My brows dip low in confusion and I look around the bay, not seeing anyone. “What girl?”

“The girl that put that goofy ass smile on your face,” he says with a knowing look. “Only a woman can make a man smile like that.”

I hadn’t realized I was smiling when I came in, but I feel one stretch across my face now.

“Her name is Mila.”

“From the bookstore?”

“You know her?” I ask, closing the distance between us.

“I know of her.”

At my look of surprise, Bishop rolls his eyes. “You said it yourself yesterday, Cross. Abbott Ridge is a small town.” He turns his attention back to the engine he’s working on. “Pass me that wrench.”

Knowing which one he wants without asking, I grab it and hand it over.

“The real question is…” He pauses to look at me. “How do you know her?”

Reaching behind me, I pull the book out of my back pocket.

Chuckling, Bishop shakes his head. “Should have known. Can’t believe you read that girly shit.”

“Don’t hate,” I tell him. “This girly shit just got me a date with perfection on Friday night.”

He eyes the book. “Well, hell. Maybe I need to pick up a new hobby. Mila’s a pretty girl.”

“Find your own pretty girl, Bish,” I say, popping him on the back of the head with the book. “Mila is mine.”

Fucker laughs. “It’s like that?”

“Damn right it’s like that.” I drop the book on top of the tool cabinet and grab a beer from the fridge. “I saw her yesterday when I was leaving the tattoo shop.”

“No doubt a gorgeous girl like that grabbed your attention.”

“Hell yeah. Would have talked to her yesterday, but she was on her way out. Almost got discouraged when I watched her drop into the passenger seat of a sweet ass ride, but decided to take a chance anyway.”

“Black Chevelle?” he asks, glancing up.

“Yeah.”

He nods. “Her younger brother, Mateo.”

“Damn, Bish,” I say, dropping my ass onto a stool. “You really do know everyone in this town. Bet you got all the good gossip.”

Bishop snorts. “I ain’t got shit. Mateo spent a lot of time here. Rented one of the bays so he could restore that beauty of his. He had the know-how, but needed somewhere to do the work.”

“I’d love to get my hands on that car.”

“Good luck with that. He won’t let anyone else work on it. Not even me.”

That makes me chuckle. “I respect that. Nothing more important to a man than his car.”

“And his girl,” he says, no so subtly turning the conversation back to Mila. “Where are you taking her?”

💛Review💛

Cross may have a past that at first glance could be misconstrued but that is not the man he is. From the moment he sees Mila he is enchanted however outside forces are threatening the relationship they are trying to build.

Mila and Cross are exactly what the other needs, and she sees the man he is and not his past. He is a boyfriend that any girl would be lucky to have, and he proves more than once that she can count on him to be there for her in any way she needs.

I really enjoyed seeing the relationship unfold between Mila and Cross as they are so supportive of each other both personally and professionally despite all the challenges they must overcome.

Benson Bexley has a heart of stone.

Apparently, nothing changes.

When he returns home after a decade gone, I recognize him right away.

How could I forget him?

He’s the same cocky flirt who slid dirty poetry to me in art class.

With the same stone-cold stare that shields his soul from the world.

And that same sharp-edged jaw that cuts straight through a heart like a dagger.

Fortunately, I see right through his arrogant charm.

Even better, he doesn’t remember who I am.

And I have no intention of reminding him.

After all, it’s only a matter of time until his nomadic life takes him away again.

When he relentlessly pursues me, I devise an evil plan.

Play along with his dirty, poetic charm. 

And then give him a taste of his own medicine.

Revenge.

It’s not in my nature.

But Benson Bexley deserves nothing less.

It’s time for that heart of stone to shatter.

She was gorgeous…and infuriating.
And he couldn’t stop thinking about her.

Jeremy was used to taking care of people. His brothers, his sister, his mom. Hell, he’d been the “man” of his family for so long that the need to care of others was burned onto his soul.
But Teresa didn’t want to be taken care of, and worse, she didn’t need it.
Until…she did. Until she needed him.
Jer knew that his chance with her wasn’t going to come more than once, so he had to be smart.
She needed to fall for him. Irrevocably.
Because he couldn’t end up a bad rebound.

🧡Review🧡

Jeremy has always believed that it was his responsibility to ensure that he was there for every to help out everyone he cares about, and his needs have always come second. He has had feelings for Teresa for a few years however her independent side is at odds with his need to protect.

Teresa’s family has sheltered her for her entire life and as she pursues her dreams, she knows what she doesn’t want when it comes to a relationship. She believes that what she and Jeremy want for the future are too different, but he is about to show her how wrong she truly is.

Teresa was focused on her goals but learning about her past gives us a greater understanding of her feelings and actions and Jeremy was swoony as he pursued the woman who owned his heart. After the events that happened in this story I can’t wait for Asher’s story.

It all started that summer in Lake Bittersweet…

Emmaline Curtis has never been outside the state of Minnesota before, so winning an all-expenses-paid trip to Hawaii is a dream.

Emmaline will do anything for those she cares about with no consideration about the effect it will have on her life. On an unexpected trip to Hawaii, she finally puts herself first and enjoys some fun in the sun with a sexy stranger all the while knowing that their relationship would end when the vacation did.

Connor is a successful businessman who was determined to not follow in the footsteps of his father. When he meets Emmaline, the sparks fly but he never expected to see her again until fate and family obligations intervene, and he finds himself in her hometown and they soon realize that the flirtation may have ended but not their feelings for each other.

This is a heartwarming story about love and family that doesn’t disappoint. The romance between them is endearing and I enjoyed seeing them realize what truly made them happy.
