    Summary

    A single flutter of wings, delicate, almost imperceptible, can stir a storm an ocean away. Such is the poetry of the butterfly effect: the notion that the smallest choices can ripple through time, bending destinies in their silent wake.

    What if she had never gone to that costume party?
    What if, in a rare moment of boldness, she hadn’t seized spontaneity with both hands and fallen into that captivating stranger?
    What if she had never met Eloisee, never uncovered the strange, delicate threads weaving her life into his, long before they’d ever spoken a word?

    It takes only one decision, one heartbeat of courage or chance, to unmake the life you knew and compose an entirely new one.

    Or How a steamy encounter at a costume party leads to a series of secret little dates, sparking a romance neither of them saw coming… ?

    Summary

    Colin and Penelope find themselves in a very public unseemly spectacle that force them to marry. Surely, it’s agreeable to marry your best friend and carry on as if nothing changed, right? Except you cannot get away; that person is always there, always present, always flashing an ankle trying to tempt you. And tempted you are.

    Only to realize they were the one that you loved the whole time.

    Summary

    When he is away, she moves and keeps moving.

    She adjusts. She endures. She thrives.

    She misses him, but the act of missing him becomes as intrinsic as the act of loving him, and yet another thing she carries with her.

    But after—

    Everything is different.

    Wherein these two idiots have the worst possible timing, the best of intentions with the worst ideas, and spend far too much time talking without saying anything at all.
