What you get with this Friends to Lovers collection... Curvy When Wet - Once upon a time, the ocean fascinated me with its unending beauty and otherworldly creatures. Now, its mere image terrifies me. Maybe that's not a big deal for most people, but I spent the last four years studying to become a marine biologist. That's not the worst of it. Corwin Hale, the big, bad Navy SEAL I've known forever, finds out about my sudden phobia and insists on fixing me. That's not the solution I need. All Corwin can do is lead me into the deepest waters of my life and break my heart. But I can't tell him that -- he doesn't know I love him. Sexting Curves - I don't know who's crazier, me for harboring a secret crush on the exceedingly delicious Major Logan Jones or the former Mrs. Jones for leaving him. I know who's dumber. Me! I exchanged one too many dirty texts about the major with my best friend. The last one went to Logan's phone and now he's about to discover all my dirty little fantasies and a choice photo or ten. Oh, did I mention the video of me on the phone, the one I took in my bedroom, my legs spread wide, my battery-operated boyfriend on the quilt next to me, a mix of cream and lube... Yeah, FML! Riding Curves - I must have fantasized about the moment Aiden Perry saw me as a grown woman, desirable and sexy despite my plus-sized curves, at least a thousand times before the moment finally occurred. Not once did I imagine the revelation would begin with me on the back of his motorcycle after my car broke down, the engine thrumming between my legs and my body's reaction to being pressed up against his big, hard muscles involuntarily exposing my secret crush...in the wettest way possible.

Let me just say -- none of this was supposed to happen. I didn't expect the letter to go viral. I didn't think anyone would figure out who Dear Sexy Ex was.

And Dear Sexy Ex, well, it turns out he needs me to save his business. By becoming his fake fiancée. Yup, that's the pickle I find myself in -- pretending to be madly in love with the charming, brilliant, and utterly infuriating man known as Dear Sexy Ex. Only, it's not an act. And he can never know.
