Star-crossed roommates. A pact for change. And friends who want to keep them apart... Jay Richards People who know I've fallen hopelessly in love with Elodie Varona: my sister-in-law, my boss, and our friends. I'm pretty sure the mail carrier suspects. Anyone who has seen me accompany her on guitar while she sings can see at a glance that I'm a fool for her. The whole world knows and wants to keep us apart. My denial is barely plausible. Only Elodie seems oblivious. She deserves the best, and that's not me. Elodie Varona I ought to see a therapist to discuss the wicked fantasies I'm having about my roommate. I should know better, since I'm studying to become a counselor. After tragedy strikes, Jay asks me to help him overhaul his image-to help make him the best man he can be. Saying no isn't my strong suit, let alone to the man I might secretly love. I want him, but... he sees me as his wingwoman. Unrequited love for your roommate is never a good look. Ask Jay. Or Elodie. Just don't ask them at the same time... Alternately steamy, nerdy, and sweet, the Excelling @ Love Series follows a group of strong women as they find love in their small college town. Filled with feel-good romance, found family, and flirty banter, the Excelling @ Love books are happy hour for the soul.
