Jake Undone

Nina Kennedy is alive…but not living…until she meets him. Planes, trains, heights…you name it, Nina is afraid of it and leads a sheltered life ruled by irrational fears and phobias. When she moves to Brooklyn for nursing school, that life is turned upside down as she develops an intense but unwanted attraction to her gorgeous roommate, who’s pierced and tattooed and just happens to be the smartest person she’s ever met. Behind Jake Green’s rough exterior and devilish smile lies a heart of gold. He makes it his mission to change Nina’s outlook on life. When he agrees to tutor her, they forge a bet, and the stakes are high as Jake forces Nina to face her demons. He just wasn’t expecting to fall hard for her in the process. What Nina doesn’t realize is that Jake has been living his own private hell. Once he drops a bombshell, will their love survive it? Told in two parts from both Nina and Jake’s points of view, Jake Undone is a standalone story and a companion to the novel Gemini.

Jake Understood

It was a mismatch made in heaven: innocent girl from the boonies moves in with tattooed, pierced, bad-boy engineer.

I came up with a bet, a plan to tutor her in math and coach her through her phobias. What I wasn’t betting on was becoming addicted to her.

But I was living a double life on weekends, and once she found out about it, she’d be gone.

I had to protect myself, and that meant one thing: I couldn’t fall in love.

Author’s note: This is not an exact retelling of Jake Undone. While pivotal scenes from Jake Undone are retold from Jake’s point of view, Jake Understood is its own story that includes all-new material from both the past and present time where Jake Undone left off.
