OVER THE LINE is a friends-to-lovers contemporary romance about a recovering people pleaser, a cinnamon roll hero, and friends who won’t stop meddling.

Mark Easton took over the family restaurant when no one else could, putting his life on hold while they picked up the pieces his brother left behind. Eight years later, he’s ready to start the next chapter by expanding to a nearby city, aching to finally move out of his hometown.

Too bad his ex-girlfriend just moved back to town and offered to be his realtor. To save face with their parents, he reluctantly agrees. The only thing keeping him sane is his favorite employee, and he can’t stand the thought of losing her now that her life is changing, too.

How can he keep her sunshine in his life?

Julia Sanchez has always done what others expected, and she’s ready for a change. Her first act of defiance is to accept Mark’s job offer, despite her father’s wishes. The next is to confide in her boss, shifting their totally professional dynamic into something more.

By finally setting boundaries and saying “yes” to herself, Julia enters uncharted territory. She’s never felt like this, and Mark gives her the strength to embrace every part of herself. Can the people in her life adjust to the new her? Will they accept her choices?

Why would something this good be bad?

What Beta Readers Have Said:

“The way you write unlikable characters as well as likable ones is truly phenomenal.”

“Madisonnnnnnn this spice is NEXT LEVEL. The chemistry LEAPS off the pages!”

“Loveeeeee the way they communicate when there’s a problem!”

“Their connection is [so real]. I feel like these people could laugh and have a good time without being super serious all the time.”

“The conflict at the end really sells the HEA--if they can get through the ex-gf, the heart attack and emotional shutting down, the insane dinner with her parents--these people are gonna make it.”
