Title: Level Up
Author: Cathy Yardley
About Level Up:
Geeky introvert Tessa Rodriguez will do whatever it takes to get promoted to video game engineer– including create a fandom-based video game in just three weeks. The only problem is, she can't do it alone. Now, she needs to strong-arm, cajole, and otherwise socialize with her video game coworkers, especially her roommate, Adam, who’s always been strictly business with her. The more they work together, though, the closer they get…
Adam London has always thought of his roomie Tessa as “one of the guys” until he agreed to help her with this crazy project. Now, he’s thinking of her all the time… and certainly as something more than just a roommate! But his last girlfriend broke up with him to follow her ambitions, and he knows that Tessa is obsessed with getting ahead in the video game world.
Going from friends to something more is one hell of a challenge. Can Tessa and Adam level up their relationship to love?

Title: One True Pairing
Author: Cathy Yardley
About One True Pairing:
They couldn't be more opposite, the Hollywood actor and the hometown girl, but all they need is a little convention magic to become the perfect ship in Cathy Yardley's One True Pairing.
Jake Reese needs a decoy girlfriend. Fast. The lead actor of the popular TV show, Mystics, is tired of losing his shirt to overeager fans. Literally. Which is why a chance meeting with gothabilly bookworm-slash-barista Hailey Frost seems almost too perfect to be true. Hailey is not impressed with his TV fame and is desperate to save her family's bookstore. It's a match made in Hollywood, but as the two pretend to date, fan fiction becomes reality. Can this OTP become canon?
"Trust me, if I saw a guy that hot, I wouldn't be behind this counter," Hailey said, and her voice all but dripped with authenticity, just the right amount of longing and curiosity. She could tell the exact moment when they believed her. "What would a guy like Jake Reese be doing here, though?"
"He was doing a VIP thing, over at the Flat Iron Grill," a teenage girl said, pushing her glasses up the bridges of her nose, looking pained. "And before he was swarmed and groped..."
"Oh, don't be so stuffy, Amelia," the redhead said, rolling her eyes. “Guys love that sort of thing, believe me.”
"He made a break for it. I wouldn't be surprised if he was running for the cops," Amelia shot back, scowling.
"Well, he is smokin' hot," Hailey commiserated, causing the redhead to grin triumphantly at the girl, Amelia. "And he's around here? Seriously? You're not kidding?"
The redhead nodded. "Not even kidding. Can you imagine?"
"Well, crap. I'm stuck here until the end of my shift. I thought I saw a guy running past here. Thought he was a thief, actually."
Don’t over-sell it, she chastised herself. She was out of practice.
"Which way did he go?" Pocket-grabber said, gripping the edge of the counter.
"That way," Hailey said, pointing to the far end of the strip mall. "But he could probably..."
Before she could finish, sweater-woman was already moving. Redhead let out a hoot, like a baying hunting dog, and sprinted after the crowd. Only Amelia remained behind.
"Um, miss?"
Hailey bit her lip, hoping that the kid would move so she could hustle Jake out of here without incident. "Yes? Did you want some coffee?"
Amelia looked at her searchingly. "If you do happen to see Mr. Reese," she said, her tone serious, "please apologize to him. From me."
Hailey smiled. Amelia was no fool. "I'll do that," she said, nodding. Amelia nodded back, then strolled out.
Hailey waited a beat, then let out a breath, turning to the prone actor. "Well, that was a close one. You okay?"
"I am now," he said, smiling at her. He was wearing a pair of dark blue jeans, a black T-shirt, and a brown leather jacket. His eyes were shockingly blue -- like, Paul Newman blue. He was sex in a pair of Levi's. “Damn. You’re not a bad actress, you know that?”
“I’m a terrible actress,” she corrected. “But I’m a hell of a liar.”
