    About this series

    A protective boyfriend. A girlfriend who wants to fit in. Can love give them the strength to face the ugly secrets they’re hiding?

    CAM:

    She’s the most precious person in my life. I’d do anything for Bianca... except introduce her to my family. I know she wants to meet them, but I can’t predict what my dad might do. How can I tell her that?


    Our ugly family secret stays locked within our house, just the way Mum wants it to be. I won’t expose Bianca to it. But she’s starting to pull away from me. I can feel the wedge growing between us, and I don’t know how to stop it.


    Maybe she’s hiding something from me too. The light in her eyes doesn’t shine so bright these days. I wish I could figure out what is eating at her. Life is so much easier when I can just paste on a smile and pretend that everything’s sweet. But maybe I can’t this time. Maybe I have to let her into the dark side of my world… or I could lose her forever.

      What happens when a sassy drag queen falls for his brother’s best friend? Eli Baker needs a job. Drag isn’t paying the bills and the life of a starving artist isn't as fun when he’s the one living it. Taking a temporary office job is meant to be a quick fix. It's not supposed to reintroduce him to the funny, sharp, and sweet Tristan Rose… who just so happens to be Eli's oldest brother’s best friend. Eli can’t stand his brother, and the feeling is more than mutual. Getting involved with Tristan could mean family trouble, but Eli's never been one for following the rules, especially when breaking them means annoying his brother. Tristan is far too intriguing to ignore, especially when he takes an interest in Eli’s life outside the office. He’s not at all what Eli expects, and maybe that’s exactly what Eli needs. But if push comes to shove, will Tristan choose Eli over his best friend? Always Eli is a 78,000-word contemporary MM romance featuring fabulous drag shows, secret biscuits, an office romance, and numerous siblings who can't help getting involved.

      A kind boy. A grief-stricken girl. A chance for love neither expected… “You know that elusive book hangover we all long for? Jordan delivers that and so much more with City Girl vs Country Boy.” – Reader review HARPER: I’ve just lost everything. My grand plan for college with my best friends has gone up in smoke. I have to look after my siblings now. I’m all they’ve got left. My parents stated in their will that they want Beck to look after us on his farm. But why? We haven’t seen him in years. Now two orphaned families are supposed to squish into his crusty old farmhouse in the middle of nowhere? Five grieving teenagers. This isn’t going to work. But I’ll go. Just for a couple of weeks. That’s what Mum and Dad would want me to do. What I don’t expect is for Tane to still be living on the farm. He’s grown up now. He’s gorgeous. I don’t have room in my life for this pull of desire, but his kind eyes and big heart are going to make it impossible for me to resist him. He told me this land can heal my pain... but how can I stay? What do I give up in order to survive this?

      She’s closed her heart to protect her family. Can he open it back up to let love bloom? “I didn't think it was going to be possible for this series to get even better, and yet I have fallen even harder for all these teenagers…” – Amazon reviewer TANE: Harper wants me. I can feel it every time she looks my way. Her lips tell me I’m the guy for her. Our attraction is irresistible. Magnetic. But she’s fighting it. She’s pushing me away at every turn, trying to take care of everyone as they start school and adjust to life without their parents. I get it. Living as an orphan must hurt, but if she'll only let me help her... Why does she have to be so stubborn? Why does she want to do this all on her own when I’m here to make things better? I can’t quit on her. I’m not going to let her keep hurting herself this way. I don’t care what it takes. I’m winning Harper’s heart, because my heart won’t let me do anything else.

      What happens when a quiet boy with a secret falls for his best friend? Finn has always kept people at arm’s length. Being quiet and shy doesn’t get you many friends outside your family, and it’s even harder when you’re running a spicy, secret side project. But Gem might be the exception to the rule. The game designer is clever, self-deprecating, and appreciates Finn’s affection for all things nerdy. He's the one man who can find the real Finn… if Finn lets him in. When Gem asks for Finn's help opening a new board game store, it brings the two of them closer than ever before. Soon things become complicated as lines of friendship blur between them, and Finn begins to worry Gem will find out his secret. But maybe that wouldn’t be as bad as it seems. Maybe Gem already knows the secret Finn's keeping. All he has to do is convince Finn to share… Finding Finn is a 78,000-word contemporary MM romance featuring late-night shop shenanigans, far too many nosy siblings with no boundaries, two best friends, and some steamy audio fantasies. It contains no love-triangle, no cheating, and no angst.

      A second-place sister. A first-rate jock. Can the light of love shine through the darkest pain? "I am absolutely devouring this series… Jordan Ford definitely is one very talented lady, her words are all heart and emotion.”— Amazon reviewer BIANCA: Cam likes me. He’s asked me on a date. It’s kind of unbelievable. He could have any girl he wants, yet his eyes landed on me. Can this be real? Do I go for it? He’s so out of my league, I’m terrified. I don’t think the other girls like it. Their heated glares are warning me away, and now my twin sister’s in trouble too. Stacey won’t tell me what’s wrong, but she’s acting weird and I’m worried that her boyfriend has hurt her. I need to get to the bottom of it. I’m all she has left. Can I really make this thing with Cam a reality? I want him so badly, but I promised Stacey I’d stick with her no matter what. How do I protect both sides of my heart? How do I choose between love and loyalty?

      What happens when a prickly travel journalist falls for his fake boyfriend? Oscar Moore has two problems. One: He’s accidentally managed to convince his boss, the legendary editor of The Traveller, that he has a boyfriend. And two: he now has to persuade photographer and casual acquaintance, Ilias Verrati, to play along for a week-long couple’s retreat in Hawaii. Ilias is full of sass and sunshine, but his constant flirting grates on Oscar. Unfortunately, unless Oscar wants to confess and risk his job, he has to keep up the ruse. He can manage a week, and if he can pull this off then editorial glory awaits. Oscar and Ilias both have their own reasons for avoiding relationships—even if they desperately want one—and their work makes finding love even more difficult, but maybe a fake relationship is just what they need to give them a nudge in the right direction. Under the Hawaiian sun, Oscar discovers there’s more to Ilias than meets the eye. But before Ilias will risk his heart, Oscar will have to find a way to open it. Oh So Oscar is a 78,000-word contemporary MM romance featuring fake dating, luxurious hotel rooms, star gazing, and delicious food. It also contains discussions of grief, including the past loss of a parent, and the past loss of a partner.
