President.”
Her eyes widened again. “And the President is?”
Sebastian simply arched an eyebrow at her, dropped his gaze to the floor again.
Lily took a deep breath, held it for a moment. It was time to fish or cut bait, she supposed. All in or all out. And it looked like all out wasn’t an option right now.
“You are so lucky I watch so much TV,” she said.
He blinked at her. “Come again?”
“Maybe later.” She winked. “What I mean is, if I didn’t watch so damn much Buffy and Supernatural, maybe you’d be carting me off to the loony bin instead of taking me home to Mother.”
He winced.
She giggled. “You’re taking me home to meet your Mom.”
“I suppose, if you want to put it like that,” he said.
“And we’re some special kind of magical demon-style married?”
“I wish you’d stop saying that,” he snapped.
“I know you do, dear ,” she said, sweetly. “But what I’m driving at is: do you know what this means?”
“What does it mean?” he asked.
“It means I’ve got the mother-in-law from hell. Literally.”
And despite everything, she couldn’t help but laugh at the way he rolled his eyes and grinned at her.
One way or another, it was going to be okay.

They're taking daytime drama to a whole new level....
When Jenna left her commitment-phobic but otherwise perfect boyfriend, Drew, she hoped he would chase her, not get engaged to someone else. And when she catches the eye of scruffy soap star Mitchell Cole at Drew's engagement party, she can't help but compare the two of them. Mitch is definitely not her type.
But Jenna's best friend Kari is nutty about soap operas, and she wants insider details on Mitch’s job. Unfortunately, Mitch isn't interested in her; he wants Jenna. So Jenna agrees to go out with him -- for Kari's sake. After all, he's really not her type.
Except he's sweet, funny, and sexy, and even as Jenna tries to keep him at arm's length, she likes him more and more every day. When she thinks she might have a chance with Drew again, Jenna has to decide: Is what she thinks she wants really what she needs?

What are people saying about Midnight Confessions?:
If you're looking for a sincere and very real laugh-out-loud romantic comedy, look no further.
- Zoë Marshall, author of Until It Doesn’t
Jenna is an easy heroine to get behind: her insecurities and her yearning for a lost love would be familiar to most women.
- Marina Finlayson, Author of Twiceborn and The Twiceborn Queen

“He called, right after I hung up with you, actually, and said he had fun last night, and we should hang out again, and I said yeah we should, and he said he wanted to ask me something, and I said I was running late to get breakfast with you, and would he like to join us, and he said yes, and that was all.” She shrugs and — thankfully — breathes. “Nothing earth-shattering.”
I’m still mentally dissecting this exchange when the door swings open and Mitch strides in, resplendent in faded boot cut jeans — with cowboy boots, of course — and yet another plaid shirt. This one isn’t flannel, but it makes up for that, saints preserve us, with mother-of-pearl snaps.
Not buttons. Snaps.
“Speaking of earth-shattering,” I say, and nod at the door. Kari turns around so fast I can’t believe she doesn’t give herself whiplash. She waves frantically — and unnecessarily, since he’s already walking toward our table.
