Amy Daws books in order

POINTE

Getting screwed over backstage by my married-ex tears my heart into a million tiny pieces.

[Sitting in the audience at the ballet with my former fling wasn’t my idea of fun.]

I live in my pointe shoes, not even my ex can taint my love for ballet.

[I hate the ballet. This on again/off again crap was getting old.]

And then my whole world changes when I notice the smoldering gaze…

[Then I look to the stage, and I can’t take my eyes off…]

OF...

Leo Richards.

[Adeline Parker.]

Concentrating on anything except his sexy…everything, is impossible.

[Her presence commands my attention…I’ve never experienced this before.]

He makes me second-guess everything I’ve ever dreamed about.

[She makes me question everything I’ve ever known.]

Fighting him is a strategic sport—no clothes allowed.

[All I can think about are her sexy ballerina legs wrapped around me—tutu definitely on.]

BREAKING

Our scandalous rendezvous is plastered all over NYC’s tabloids.

[Because of my status in Manhattan, now I’ve dragged her into the limelight.]

My ex will stop at nothing to tear us apart.

[Seriously powerful people forbid me to be with her.]

Rumors about his past keep building.

[I can’t tell her this secret.]

When it came to Leo, I only knew the big things.

[When it came to Adeline, I knew nothing about the little things.]

But uncovering those things about him [her] may push us past our breaking point.

Freya Cook is used to being the invisible woman with a needle and thread, offering cheeky punchlines as she helps dress London’s finest. She’s plus-sized in body and spirit, and other than her friendship with Mac, talking to the opposite sex is one skill she never mastered.

However, after one innocent game of Never Have I Ever, Mac offers to play Love Coach for Freya. What neither of them see coming are the feelings that develop when the clothes come off.

Now they’re both about to learn the biggest lesson of all: Don't fall in love with your best friend.
