Not a Strong Enough Word
AVAILABLE NOW!
Five years apart. One unfinished love story.
Scarlett Frye was once a literary genius. With two bestselling novels, a million-dollar book deal, and a love story of her own, she had it all—until the pressure broke her. Five years ago, she canceled her book tour, shredded her contract, and disappeared. She left everything behind, including Ryan Whitlock, the editor who believed in her… and the man she loved.
Now, after years of healing, she’s ready to write again.
For Ryan, Scarlett’s disappearance wasn’t just a professional loss, it was personal. It shattered his heart and sent him into a slump. That is, until an anonymous manuscript lands on his desk. The writing is brilliant, raw, and achingly familiar—it can only be Scarlett’s.
As fate brings them back together, Scarlett reluctantly agrees to let Ryan edit her comeback novel, even though it means working with the man she never stopped loving. Old passions reignite, but when pressure builds and buried secrets resurface, Ryan fears history will repeat itself.
Scarlett walked away once. But as they navigate love, loss, and the weight of the past, she and Ryan must be strong enough to rewrite their story before it’s too late.
Praise for Not a Strong Enough Word
“A deeply emotional tale about healing, re-connection, and the strength it takes to face the past.”
–Kirkus Reviews
“Scarlett’s growth as a character is one of the most compelling aspects of the novel; she is a determined, thoughtful hero who is layered in a way that invites readers to root for her.”
–Kirkus Reviews
“Ryan displays devotion and sincerity that make him a standout romantic lead—he feels both grounded and intensely romantic.”
–Kirkus Reviews
Allie has mastered the art of balancing the rawest emotions with hope, and joy, and pleasure. A truly special book.
I have not stopped thinking about this book. Allie has captured grief, and overwhelm, and the weight of pressure so astutely I felt she could have ripped these words from my own soul.
A must-read for fans of Book Lovers, Writers and Lovers, and Beautiful World Where Are You.
-Holly June Smith, author of Can I Tell You Something
Perhaps the perfect words for this breathtaking love story are ‘must-read.’
-M.K. Williams, author of The Infinite-Infinite

Not on the Same Page
Coming August 18, 2026
They agreed on no strings. But their hearts keep landing on the same page.
A year ago, literary agent Trina McBryde and editor Casey Endersen ended their no-strings arrangement. It was perfect for two people who didn’t want a relationship. But what started as a way to blow off steam and have a little fun almost put their careers at stake, along with their feelings for each other.
When an important publishing conference brings them together again, the desire they tried to deny is back, and stronger than ever. But the real challenge comes afterward—Casey needs Trina to sign a promising new writer, which means that after a year of avoiding each other, they’ll be forced to work together again. Late-night calls, whispered strategy sessions, and stolen glances make every professional interaction dangerously personal.
Every secret meeting carries the risk of exposure. If anyone finds out, they could lose more than just their jobs—they could lose their reputations.
But Casey has already fallen…again. And Trina is running out of ways to resist.
As professional boundaries blur, they’ll have to decide if being on the same page means following the rules—or finally writing their own.

Not the Way it Ends
Coming November 10, 2026
What feels like the end is just the start of a different story.
Anastasios Martis has built a life of responsibility. As he enters his fifties, he’s running a successful publishing house, navigating a messy divorce, and trying to be the best dad he can for thirteen-year-old Elena, who’s dealing with preteen drama and a recent type 1 diabetes diagnosis.
After spending too many years in an emotionally abusive relationship, thirty-five-year-old Caitlin Johnson swears she’ll never risk dating again. She’s happy teaching dance and living a simple life, even if that means struggling to make ends meet as her own diabetes care expenses rise.
As Elena’s dance teacher, Caitlin has become the steady presence Anastasios can’t always be. He’s doing his best, but he’s struggling to keep up with all the teenage emotions and health concerns. So when a family wedding in Greece offers a lifeline for a father and daughter in need of bonding, Anastasios makes a desperate ask of Caitlin—go with them.
When she agrees, Anastasios doesn’t expect how easily he and Caitlin fall in step with each other, or how her quiet strength awakens feelings he had assumed were dormant.
Both Anastasios and Caitlin thought their chance at love had passed them by, but maybe their next chapter is just beginning.
Please be advised, Not the Way it Ends is intended for mature audiences and deals with mature themes.
