The Incident Series

Vanessa Birch doesn’t have much when she moves to LA at 20. Just a dream, her guitar, and a supportive family cheering her on - well, her stepbrother not so much - but when has Clay ever approved of anything, or anyone, Van did? He wouldn’t support her street-corner gigs or how she convinced his best friend, Bryant, to be her fake boyfriend.

Clay Noble has spent the better part of a decade avoiding his taboo obsession: his stepsister Van. In love with her since the first time he’d heard her sing, even shipping himself off to the army couldn’t stop thoughts of her. Now that he’s lost everything in a tornado, he’s forced to move back in with the only family he has left, Van and her dad. Sleeping down the hall from her is forcing every unwanted impulse back to the surface. 

Minnie Halvarson moved to Kansas to start over. She wanted to be anonymous, live a simple life, and heal from her past. When Bryant Wilder walks into her bookstore, she thinks she’s hit the boyfriend jackpot. What more could she want than a tall, bookish man who worships her? Until Minnie finds out he’s dating mega pop star, Van Birch and cuts all ties with him.

Phoenix Lambert doesn’t have time for men. She’s too busy running the empire of pop star Van Birch. But she can’t get a certain silver fox out of her head. One night together turns into two which turns into sneaking around to be together, because, oh yeah, that silver fox is also her best friend’s dad. Twice-widowed Robin Birch isn’t in the market for a third wife. He has a busy law practice to run and a bid for Congress to win. But when Phoenix falls into his arms, he can’t make himself let her go—or confess to his daughter that he’s been sleeping with her best friend.
