Synopsis:

The New York Times Bestseller, Beyond Me, captured reader's hearts.

Now the stunning story of Quinn and James continues...

It was supposed to be a love story....

I knew she was out of my league but I didn’t care. Looking back, I wonder if I hadn’t pursued her, would things have turned out differently? Is it Fate that determines our choices in life? God? Free will? Or just plain old innate selfishness?

I got her, of course. There hadn’t been a girl I wasn’t able to seduce. Problem was she seduced me right back, body, mind, and soul. She possessed me, tormented me, and showed me a world that was so bright and pure I was almost blinded. 

Didn’t she know after such a drug I could never settle for less? Didn’t she realize no matter how many times I screwed up, or broke her heart, or bent her to my will, I’d never be able to let her go? 

If I hadn’t known such intensity existed, would it have been better for both of us?

True love, the real kind, isn’t nice and sweet and pure. No, it’s dirty, and sinful, and messy. 

It’s like ripping a chunk of flesh from your body and watching yourself bleed out in slow, helpless intervals until you thankfully pass out.

This isn’t a love story. But it’s the only story I got.

James and Quinn steam up the pages again in Chasing Me. Their chemistry will pull you in and keep you on the edge of your seat in this deliciously sexy story of love, trust, and forgiveness. --NYT and USA Today Bestselling Author Kelly Elliott.

Synopsis:

When it all comes crashing down...

Everything I thought I had with Austin Murphy—safety, stability, the normalcy I crave but my celebrity lifestyle rarely allows—was ripped away in one night. I wanted to surprise him, but the joke was on me. Now I don't know if I ever really knew him at all.

Someone has to pick up the pieces...

Mackenzie Forbes was everything I ever wanted and the one person I didn't deserve. When a past mistake costs me the girl I love, I'll do everything I can to get her back. We both have demanding careers and family secrets darkening our pasts, but I need Mackenzie in my future.

Sometimes everything you have to give just isn't enough...

Synopsis:

Sex on the Beach, the do-over. I had a simple plan for what to do in Key West the second time around. Testify at the trial of the rapist I helped catch last year. Make sure he gets locked away for the rest of his natural life, so he can never, ever hurt another girl. Wait for my BFFs to get to town, so we can celebrate. And stay far away from Ty Connor, because three months after breaking up with him, I still don’t know whether being with him is worse than being without him. Spring Break, take two. All of the above? Out the window. Turns out testifying is a lot harder than I thought it would be. Not only is the rapist I helped catch last year not locked away for the rest of his life, he’s on the loose and looking for me. Oh yeah, and it’s definitely harder being without Ty than being with him, especially when I have to watch him with someone else. Welcome to my world.

Synopsis:

Grass courts, tennis whites and the fiercest competition in the world. Wimbledon. After two crazy weeks in Paris, the girls of the Outer Banks Tennis Academy are headed to London with just one thing on their minds: winning.

Indiana Gaffney is fresh off a surprise win at the French Open junior tournament. Sponsors are clamoring for her attention, but what she wants more than anything—aside from a wild card to Wimbledon—is to be with Jack Harrison, but international fame and a secret relationship rarely mix well.

When Penny Harrison dreamed of playing at Wimbledon she never imagined agonizing pain shooting through her ankle with every step. With just a month until the tournament and the whole world expecting her to win, she’s determined to play, with or without the support of her coach or the love of her life, Alex Russell.

For the first time ever, no one expects anything from Jasmine Randazzo. After a crushing first-round defeat in the French Open juniors, the tennis world has given up on her, but worse than that, so have her parents, her best friend Teddy and maybe even her coach. With everyone writing her off, can she find it within herself to go after her dreams?






Jana Kramer as Penny Harrison, the fastest rising star in the tennis world. She's nursing a tiny tear in her Achilles tendon, but isn't going to let that stop her from winning Wimbledon.

Jesse Williams as Jack Harrison. Penny's older brother and agent, Jack's young, brilliant and knows it, but will giving in to his attraction to the still under-age Indiana Gaffney derail everything he's worked for?

Amber Heard as Indiana Gaffney, with her athleticism and powerful serve, everyone is talking about her, but as the spotlight heats up, decisions on the court and off it could send this raw talent spiraling.

Victoria Justice as Jasmine Randazzo. Expected to live up to her parents tennis legacy her whole life, recent set-backs on the court, namely losing to Indy at the OBX Junior Classic has lifted that pressure, but with everyone's faith in her gone, can she have enough faith in herself to keep fighting for her dreams.

Chris Hemsworth as Alex Russell. The biggest star in tennis is back after an amazing win at the French Open, but he's still trying to prove to Penny that his love his real and that she doesn't have to choose between him and her career.

Jacob Artist as Teddy Harrison. Teddy's world is tilted on its head when an old flame shows up at OBX, bringing back every ounce of pain that made him swear off relationships for good and one stupid decision may cost him his best friend, Jasmine, this time for good.

Eduardo Verastegui as Paolo Macchia. Alex Russell's best friend and training partner hadn't been able to get Jasmine Randazzo out of his head since he ran into her at the French Open, but is he willing to put those feelings aside to help her live out her dream?
