Adam, Hunter, and Free have a lot in common, like geeky passions and not exactly great track records when it comes to dating. But a New Year's Eve bash will bring everything they've ever wanted--and so much more . . . 

His Work Of Art

Adam Hayes has never met a girl like Reese. She's sassy, smart, and loves talking comics, although he can't see why she'd choose DC over Marvel. He's thrilled to finally put his artistic chops to use in their upcoming comic project. But when the two combine forces, they churn out magic in more ways than they had planned . . . 

His New Jam

There's something unusual about the sarcastic percussionist Hunter Reed hired for his band. For one thing, she's impervious to his advances. But when Hunter sees how passionate Sydney is behind the drums, he orchestrates a plan to find out if she kisses like she plays. What he doesn't anticipate is falling so hard . . . 

His Dream Role

Free Mitchell loves the theater. When he's masquerading as Dr. Who or Sherlock Holmes, he feels he can escape his shy, dorky persona. But nothing's prepared him to play boyfriend to a gorgeous girl like Samantha Wolf. The more time they spend together, the more they seem to be going off the script, and the hotter everything gets . . .



{EXCERPT}

He strode into the kitchen with his jacket open. He, too, wore a T-shirt with his jeans. His dark blue T-shirt read Hermits Unite! in white letters.

“Interesting shirt. Are you sure it’s all right to leave your cave to be out in public?”

He ran a hand over the front of his shirt. “Uh, it’s another Doctor Who reference.”

She smiled at that. Even not in costume, he wore his geekhood. “Speaking of which, I watched a few episodes of the tenth doctor. You were quoting him.”

“Huh?”

“When we talked about books. You said something like books are the best weapons. I thought it was cool at the time, but then I learned you stole the line from Doctor Who.”

He blushed but took a step closer to her. “I tend to do that—use lines from the character I’m portraying. It’s the actor in me.”

“Is that all?”

“No. It also makes things easier when I’m nervous. If I use someone else’s words, I won’t embarrass myself.”

“Interesting tactic. I might have to give it a try.”

He laughed. “You? I can’t imagine you ever get nervous.”

“Maybe I’m a better actor than you are.” The air between them filled with tension, but it was good. She drew nearer to him. “For instance, I’m extremely nervous right now.”

“Why?” His voice had dropped to a lower register, and it was sexy as hell.

“Because I want tonight to be good, and first dates tend to suck.”

“I’ll do my level best to make sure it doesn’t.”

She stood close enough that she watched his pulse thump in his neck. She had the urge to kiss him to see if his pulse would spike, but part of her feared it would scare him away.

She licked her lips, tasting her strawberry gloss, and asked, “Ready to go?”

He stepped back and swept out an arm. “As you wish.”

She pointed at him. “I know that one. Princess Bride, right?”

“Very good.”

“You won’t need quotes tonight. You already got me on a date. No need to be nervous.” She reached into the closet and tugged her coat off a hanger.

“Easier said than done.”

“I always thought that for a guy, asking was the hardest part.”

“True, it only takes about twenty seconds of insane courage.”

“Ha! I know that one too. We Bought a Zoo. Don’t you think it’s a little weird that you can pull out quotes throughout a conversation like it’s nothing?”

He took her coat and held it open for her to slide into. “We’re all pretty bizarre. Some of us are just better at hiding it, that’s all.”

She turned, still standing close enough to brush against him as she pulled her coat closed. She stared and tried to decide whether that was another quote.

He slowly slid his hands under her hair and freed it where it had been trapped under her collar. In doing so, he was even closer. She smelled his cologne and wanted to bury her nose in his neck. His thumbs caressed her neck and he leaned close to her ear. “The Breakfast Club.”

His breath on her ear sent a zing through her body. Something about his quiet mannerisms made her want to rub up against him.
