Van Birch: Pop Star. A-list starlet. Off-limits.

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. 

 Clay Noble: Gorgeous. Infuriating. Untouchable. 

 Everything Van touches turns to gold with a side of outrageous. When she accuses her manager of sexual assault, the public thinks it's just another one of her publicity stunts and the backlash is brutal. Wounded, she dashes home to a tornado-devastated Wellville, Kansas to heal and help rebuild, even though the constant stream of social media doubts and threats won't let her rest. But there’s another reason for her sleepless nights and fevered dreams. Clay is back, hotter than ever, and his lingering glances and stolen moments have her convinced the feelings she’s fought for so long may not be one sided after all.

The Van Birch Incident: A Forbidden Rockstar Romance

Vanessa Birch doesn’t have much when she moves to L.A. at twenty, just a dream, her guitar, and a supportive family cheering her on--well, her step-brother 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. And he definitely wouldn’t enjoy her flirtation with the sexy surfer who may or may not be a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

When Van meets Phoenix Lambert, a slush pile reader who takes Van under her wing, the two lay out a plan to get Van noticed, get her a record deal, and make sure everyone has the chance to…

Love Van B.

Love, Van B.: An Incident Series Novella

Until Minnie finds out he’s dating mega pop star, Van Birch and cuts all ties with him.

Bryant Wilder is a humble Kansas contractor by day and Van Birch’s fake boyfriend whenever she needs him to be. At first Bryant is happy to do it, but after five years, he is tired of dodging paparazzi and keeping his hookups on the down low. 

Bryant wants more. 

Who he wants is Minnie. But she won’t even look at him.

Now Van is back in Wellville, and has adopted Minnie into their friend group, Bryant is just as smitten with her as ever. Maybe if she hadn’t just had a baby, he’d actually have a chance.
