Suzy Langevin loves love, even though she forgot how to say it in Latin when she was a contestant on Jeopardy! Her career as a clinical social worker, along with her own experience living with autoimmune disease and ADHD, allow her characters to embrace the tough stuff without it becoming a cliche, incorporating themes related to mental health and addiction with authenticity, heart, and humor. Suzy lives and writes in central Massachusetts.

Fresh off her Georgetown graduation, Jasmine Lewis landed what felt like a dream Washington gig: Working in the communications office for Senator Jack Ashworth, scion of an old money, power-political dynasty, who just also happens to be the frontrunner in the presidential primary. If she plays her cards right, she could be on the fast track to the inner circle of political power in DC.

What she didn't account for was the walking liability that is Trip Ashworth, the Senator's famously handsome and infamously rakish son. When he has a summer romance gone wrong with a pop superstar, she turns their fling into a banger of a breakup song. After a snippet of the song goes viral, Jasmine is tasked with rehabbing Trip's ‘playboy prince’ image, preferably before Jack formally announces his candidacy.

Despite their initial uneasy alliance, Jasmine discovers there’s a lot more to Trip than what the clickbait says. When their relationship evolves into a genuine connection, Jasmine must decide if being with Trip is worth going from spinning the headlines behind the scenes to becoming one herself.

After years of hanging onto her insecurities and oversized hoodies, Alyssa has finally shed the old version of herself who felt the need to hide her brains and size twenty curves. Too bad she still can’t shed being hopelessly in love with her best friend from high school. When his wedding invitation arrives in the mail, Alyssa knows she needs to go for any hope of closure...or maybe give him one last chance to proclaim his love. And no way is she doing that alone. Her roommate offers up a solution to Alyssa's plus-one problem: Her roommate’s brother, Jeff.

All his life, Jeff McCormick has only wanted one thing: To live up to his father’s expectations. Which has left him newly graduated from law school, and grappling with an anxiety disorder. When his sister asks him to be her roommate’s date to a wedding, he agrees, but only if Alyssa will return the favor and be his guest at another wedding. Despite appearing to have it all together, anxiety has left him woefully single this wedding season.

When their quid pro quo leads to an unexpected connection, they both must decide if they’re ready to move beyond their fears and take their relationship from pact partners to perfect match.
