Lisa Atkinson has finally achieved her dream—running her family’s beloved bookstore, Between the Lines. With a supportive circle of family and friends, including her best friend Jayden, life seems perfect. But before she settles into her new role, a crushing tax debt threatens to snatch her dream away. Desperate to save her bookstore, Lisa cooks up an ambitious grand re-opening event to raise the funds she needs. Little does she know, the key to her success is hiding in plain sight—her best friend Jayden, who moonlights as the elusive bestselling author, Justin Love. 

Jayden Reynolds is on the brink of a major career milestone, becoming a partner at his accounting firm. Exciting news, right? Except, he’s grappling with uncertainty about his future as he secretly basks in the success of his romantic debut novel that has readers swooning. As he navigates the wild world of love and ambition, he’s also realizing that he wants more than just friendship with Lisa—the woman who has held his heart far longer than he can remember. 

As Lisa and Jayden’s bond deepens amidst the whirlwind of deadlines and pressure, their playful banter takes a turn toward something more. Will they navigate their way through the chaos and finally embrace the sparks flying between them? It’s a delightful journey from best friends to lovers, filled with humor, heart, and a dash of shenanigans!

Book Excerpt

“Am I crazy, or is something different between us?”

Lisa bit down on her bottom lip and shrugged one shoulder. “So you sense it, too?”

“Yeah. I can’t quite pinpoint the moment it happened, but—”

“There’s been a shift,” Lisa finished. “I figured maybe it’s because your mom has been not-so-subtly pushing her agenda.”

They slowed their pace. Silence passed between them while Jayden settled into his thoughts. He’d loved Lisa for a long time, but he didn’t want to lose the friendship they had nor did he know how she’d receive or even if she’d reciprocate his feelings.

He tested the waters. “Or maybe she’s just trying to get us to see what’s been there all along.”

Lisa blushed, and his heart hammered like his fingers across a calculator. “I can say for sure that I have feelings for you, which feels great and wrong at the same time. Honestly, I don’t know how to feel or what to do with these emotions.”

He didn’t either. And at the risk of her thinking that he’d further lost his mind, in one fluid motion, he acted on impulse. Jayden pulled her close and synced her lips with his own. Searching. Caressing. Connecting.

A moment he’d dreamed about that kept him awake for hours on end for the past few nights. 

A moment he’d wanted to be more private than standing in the middle of The San Antonio Riverwalk for the city to witness—but right now, he didn’t care. 

A moment in time that would remain drilled into his mind and heart because when Lisa reciprocated, he forgot about where they were. Nothing else mattered. 

Any uncertainty he had about his feelings for her and her place in his life were snatched away the second their lips touched. As far as he was concerned, her heart belonged to him. Always had.

About the Author

Natasha D. Frazier fell in love with love around the age of twelve because of artists like Babyface, Boys II Men, Whitney Houston, and New Edition. Around sixteen when her mother purchased a romance novel and left it lying around the house untouched, Natasha read it and a spark for the written word had been ignited.

Natasha believes that writing is one of her purposes and contributions to the world. She feels accomplished when she can get a few words written and like blah when life gets in the way. Her hope is that at the end of every novel, readers will feel like they’ve been wrapped in a cozy blanket with a mug of their favorite coffee/tea/warm drink. 

When she isn’t reading or writing, she is likely watching movies with her family. Natasha resides in Richmond, TX with her husband, Eddie Frazier, Jr. and their three children, Eden, Ethan, and Emilyn. Her greatest joy and commitment is to her family who she hopes to inspire above all else. One of her many mottos in life is: Faith removes limitations. Natasha and her family attend Parkway Fellowship in Richmond, TX, where she volunteers as a small group leader for elementary students. Natasha is also a member of the Houston Area Alumni Chapter of Jackson State University and Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.
