Amassed Vol. 1

Amassed collects Kira Lorne's shorter stories. The ones too short for a novel and too good to leave in a drawer. All the comedy, quirk, reality, and just enough heat that Kira writes into everything she touches.Four stories. Four messes.Funny when it shouldn't be. Tender when you least expect it. Spicy enough that you'll want to read it somewhere private.Negative Space - A celebrated artist at the peak of her career meets a pipeline engineer from Idaho who doesn't know a single thing about art and somehow says the most honest thing anyone has ever said to her.The Roommate Clause - Two heartbroken friends move in together and write the rules. No flirting. No feelings. No sex. The clause held up beautifully. Right up until it didn't.Three's a Tease - Evie and Rolo have a great thing. Then Wynn shows up with nowhere to go and fits into their life like she was always supposed to be there. The couch was temporary. Nothing else was.What We Make of the Mess - Sloan is tired, broke, and fresh out of faith in pretty much everything. Rick is her coworker, her shoulder, and apparently her future. She didn't plan any of this.All by Kira Lorne.
