#RomanticIdea
from Michelle Abbott
Buy a pack of Post-it Notes and on each
one write down something that you love about your partner. Put the notes where
your loved one will find them: on the fridge door, in their lunchbox, inside
the door of their closet, in their shoe etc.
About
JEM by Michelle Abbott
Two injured, stubborn souls meet
unexpectedly. Will they save each other from their demons or have they been too
damaged for too long to see past the pain?
Growing up, all Jem knew was hatred and the pain from his father's fists. Taunted by the kids at school, he was alone, until a girl with carrot coloured hair sat next to him.
She smiled.
She listened.
She cared.
She was his angel, and he knew he’d love her forever. But Jem’s father hurts him in a way he never expected by taking him away from her.
Now eighteen, scarred inside and out, Jem trusts no one and has worked hard to ensure he'll never be helpless again. But then he runs into his angel. The only problem is she doesn’t recognize him. Jem needs her to remember him, to show him that their time together meant to her what it did to him. For once in his life he wants to have mattered to someone, to her.
Devon is attracted to the muscular, tattooed, pierced hottie standing by the pub quiz machine. That is, until he punches a guy clean across the bar for daring to touch him. She’s had her fill of violent men and intends to avoid this one at all costs.

An
excerpt from JEM:
I pull back the duvet and try to make as
few movements as possible as I crawl in beside her and let the warmth from her
body and the duvet envelop me. Her red hair is splayed out across my pillow. I
reach out and stroke my fingers through the silken strands. My pillowcase isn’t
getting washed again. It can smell of her forever so that whenever I lay my
head on it, I can pretend she’s with me. Maybe it will be okay to move a little
closer. I’m right on the edge of the mattress. If I fall out of bed I’ll wake
her. I scoot closer to her, close my eyes and inhale. She smells of roses.
Maybe I should get her some flowers. I picture myself holding a bunch of red
roses and chuckle to myself. Nah, I’m not the suave type. Maybe I’ll get a rose
tattoo to remind me of her scent.
