The Breakup Pact

They swore off men for six months. Love did not get the memo.

Avery Lane believed her life was perfectly organized-until her fiancé confessed that he had been in love with someone else for eight months.

On the same night, her best friend Quinn Wilder is forced to admit that the musician she has loved for two years was never planning to stay.

Heartbroken, tequila-brave, and tired of losing themselves inside almost-relationships, Avery and Quinn create The Breakup Pact:

No dating.
No flirting.
No texting exes.
Six months to choose their careers, their friendship, and themselves.

It should be simple.

Then a burst pipe brings Avery face-to-face with Miles Carter, the quiet, infuriatingly capable firefighter who lives next door. He is guarded, grumpy, and determined never to trust the wrong person again.

Meanwhile, Quinn's newest illustration project introduces her to Ethan Brooks-a patient single father whose seven-year-old daughter seems determined to draw Quinn into their family before either adult is ready.

As attraction turns into something harder to ignore, Avery and Quinn begin keeping secrets from each other. And when the pact finally breaks, it threatens the one relationship neither woman believed she could survive losing.

Set against the messy, glittering streets of Brooklyn, The Breakup Pact is an emotional romantic comedy about two best friends, two unexpected love stories, fresh starts, chosen family, and learning that the right love should make you more yourself-not less.

Perfect for readers who enjoy grumpy firefighters, single dads, neighbors-to-lovers tension, strong female friendship, witty banter, emotional healing, and happily-ever-afters
