ALMOST DOESN’T COUNT
Book II of the R&B Memoirs Trilogy
New York City, 1998. Before social media. Before dating apps. Before relationships could hide behind screens and disappearing messages. Back when love unfolded in real conversations, late night train rides, and R&B slow jams drifting from apartment windows and car radios. Twenty-one-year-old Jaymes Monroe arrives in Manhattan with a notebook full of song lyrics and a quiet determination to find her place in the music industry. By day she works inside a powerful record label, learning the business from the shadows. By night she sells couture at L’impasse, a chic French boutique in the Village that outfits club royalty, magazine editors, and rising artists. Surrounded by ambition, style, and sound, Jaymes believes she’s exactly where her life is supposed to begin.
Then she meets Bryan Cole. Older, magnetic, and dangerously confident, Bryan introduces Jaymes to a world that feels thrilling and grown in ways she’s never experienced before. He brings excitement, influence, and a set of carefully crafted rules about love, desire, and independence that seem sophisticated at first glance. Through him, Jaymes begins to understand how easily attraction, ambition, and power can blur together in a city where everyone is chasing something.
But just when Jaymes believes she’s figured out the emotional game of New York, another man enters her life and quietly changes the rules entirely. Charles Theodore Winston, known to most as Teddy B., is creative, passionate, and impossible to ignore. With him, Jaymes experiences a connection that feels deeper than excitement and more dangerous than she expects. For the first time, love stops feeling like strategy and begins to feel like something real.
Set against the intoxicating rhythm of late-90s R&B and the restless energy of pre-millennium New York, Almost Doesn’t Count is a story about ambition, desire, timing, and the complicated ways love can shape a woman before she fully discovers herself. Because sometimes love almost works. Sometimes a man almost becomes the one. But sometimes the most important lesson a woman learns is that almost… doesn’t count.
PRETTY WINGS
Book III of the R&B Memoirs Trilogy
In the glittering chaos of mid-2000s Los Angeles, ambition is currency and love can feel like a gamble. Monet LaRoux leaves the Jersey Shore determined to become a respected actress, focused on building a life defined by purpose rather than distraction. But love has a way of finding you when you least expect it.
As Monet navigates the early years of her career, she finds herself caught between very different kinds of connections. One man offers stability but never quite meets her where she stands. Another becomes the great love of her life, a bond so intense it feels destined, yet complicated by demons neither of them fully understands. And then there is the man who once lived only in childhood dreams, whose presence in her life feels effortless, but whose timing never seems to align with her heart. Alongside these romantic entanglements, Monet must also face the painful unraveling of a friendship she once believed was unbreakable, forcing her to face another painful truth. Not every love story is romantic, and sometimes losing a best friend can hurt just as deeply as losing the person you thought you might spend your life with.
As her career rises and the years pass, Monet begins to understand a truth that takes most people a lifetime to accept. Some love stories are not meant to last forever. Some people enter our lives to awaken us, challenge us, and ultimately teach us how to let go.
Set against the backdrop of early social media, Sidekick phones, gossip blogs, and the slow-jam soundtrack of a generation, PRETTY WINGS explores the relationships that shape us, challenge us, and ultimately teach us who we are. Over the course of a decade, Monet begins to understand that some love stories are not meant to last forever. Some people enter our lives to awaken us, test us, and ultimately teach us how to let go. Because sometimes the hardest lesson in love isn’t heartbreak or even learning how to hold on. It’s realizing that the people who changed your life the most were never meant to stay.
And that the most powerful act of love can be releasing them…and letting them fly with their pretty wings.
Some summers you forget. This one you carry forever.
Summer on Indigo Lane is a young adult contemporary fiction series set in the kind of neighborhood where everybody knows your name, the music plays from somebody's porch, and summer feels like it could last forever — until it doesn't.
Five girls. One unforgettable season. And a secret that binds them all.
They have a list. Anonymous, carefully guarded, and never to be spoken of outside the group. Every girl put a boy's name on it. Nobody knows who wrote what. That's the rule — and the rule is everything, because on Indigo Lane, friendships are sacred and secrets are currency.
But secrets have a way of surfacing.
When a note circulates at the end of summer and the whole school starts talking, everything shifts. Boys start acting different. Girls who were never in their corner get louder. And somewhere between the roller rink, the mall, the movie theater, and a beach vacation that changes one girl's life quietly and completely — the five of them will have to decide what they're willing to protect, what they're willing to sacrifice, and who they're becoming on the other side of it all.
Each book in the series centers one girl's story while keeping all five fully present — because this is what friendship actually looks like. Not perfect. Not always easy. But real, and worth fighting for.
First crushes. Secret lists. Friendships that bend but don't break. On Indigo Lane, every summer has a secret, every friendship has a test, and the moments that change you forever never announce themselves.
Summer on Indigo Lane is the series for the girl you were — and the woman still holding onto her.
For fans of novels like The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and Sweet Valley High series and fans of the television series Grown-ish and Moesha — a modern coming-of-age series where the friendships are real, the feelings are big, and summer on Indigo Lane is never just a season.
