A hazing gone wrong. That’s what they’re saying happened… problem is, I know better. I know who Melanie is. We may not have been roommates for long yet, but I know her. I know the way she smiles when she’s thought of something particularly cute or funny. The way her breath comes faster when I get too close. I know she’s sweet and innocent. She’s also mine. They chose the wrong woman to hurt, and they’ll pay dearly for that choice. It’s time for me to take over the family business. Learn the ropes and be who I was always meant to be. But unlike my father, I’m going to play with my prey first. ** Roommates is a dark sapphic romance where there is no tension between the couple. The problems lie with outside forces. ** **Previously published under A.L. Ryan, a pen name that has now been retired.**

Go home, nigger. We do not want your kind here. All I heard was the word nigger every time I turned around. I was fighting for my place in this world and struggling for my freedom. No one was going to take either my dream or my career away from me. I am going to show Ozark Airlines I belong there and I can smile and do the same job as the white girls. I walked through the path of racism and prejudice, being the first black stewardess to fly for an airline in the Midwest in 1969, and circumstances has made it unbearable at times because of the color of my skin. As I listen to the hate words, it gave me the strength and the courage as a human being to go forward with my goals, yet there was a secret about me that allowed me to beat the odds and fulfill my dreams for thirty-three years as a flight attendant.

When her new job takes her to a New England boarding school, she’s surprised to find her roommates are all men – including a very handsome one who plays by his own rules. Sophie Doyle has her dream job as the head athletic trainer for her favorite baseball team (go Red Sox!), a handsome boyfriend, and easy access to the finest cannoli in Boston. When she loses all three and the World Series to boot, she’s forced to apply for the open trainer position at an arts-focused boarding school in New Hampshire. The only available room is a glorified closet in an apartment with three guys: Jonas Voss, the aloof and attractive orchestra teacher, and his two rambunctious roommates. Sophie knows that training a bunch of privileged high school kids whose idea of a play is A Chorus Line instead of a walk-off homer is going to be a big change from the pro athletes she’s used to. She wasn’t expecting that these students would have big-time talent and even bigger-time problems. Sophie has troubles of her own—Jonas is a full-fledged grump who clearly doesn’t want her near him or the precious piano he never plays. With sunny optimism, Sophie sets out to win over Jonas and help the kids she’s growing attached to. But when her relationship with Jonas moves to the major leagues and plans change at the end of the season, they have to choose whether they are playing for keeps.
