Always a
Blogger. Never a Bride?
Word
on the street is that Sawyer Wallace, editor in chief of our favorite—but
financially strapped—local paper, has been offered a hot deal to save the
Bayside Bugle! All he’s got to do is reveal the identity of the Bayside Blogger.
Even if doing so means losing Riley Hudson, his oldest friend. And, maybe, the
woman making him rethink his singleton status!
Riley’s
just as crazy about her best bud and boss—which is why she’s always kept him at
a distance. Plus, only Sawyer knows her real identity. Talk about compromising
positions… Would revealing the truth destroy their chance at leaving the
friendzone? Or perhaps there will be wedding bells for this couple, who truly
are meant for each other!
Excerpt:
“Hey, boss.
What’s up?”
He steepled
his hands on his desk and peered at her with his dreamy hazel eyes.
Damn. Dreamy? She meant irritating. Beady even.
The weather
was unseasonably cold already and he was sporting a pair of corduroy pants and
a somewhat ugly argyle sweater that she knew had been a Christmas gift from his
mother last year. Not the most stylish of outfits and yet somehow he looked
like he’d walked out of the pages of an L.L.Bean catalog. Just because he was
tall with broad shoulders and had really cute sandy-brown hair that flopped on
his head because he needed a haircut. And today he was wearing his glasses.
What was it about a large lumberjack-looking man who wore glasses? Why did that
make her stomach twist up into knots? And then there was his lopsided smile…
What in the
heck was she doing? This was Sawyer Wallace, lifelong friend and, more
importantly, boss. She couldn’t size him up like a piece of meat. Especially
because they worked together. Especially because of what had happened to her in
New York.
“Riley,” he
began.
“Sawyer,” she
countered, and bit her lip in anticipation.
He reached
into his top desk drawer and pulled out a colorful silk scarf. “Before I
forget, Tony found this at The Brewside. Said you left it there a couple of
weeks ago and he kept forgetting to give it to you.”
She reached
for the bright yellow scarf with lime-green polka dots. One of her favorites.
“Thanks,” she
mumbled. “Tony must have given this to you while you were on your date.” She
used air quotes for the word date
and wiggled her eyebrows.
Sawyer exhaled
a long breath.
“What?” she
asked, feigning innocence.
“‘Bayside’s
forever bachelor’?” he quoted. “Really?”
She shrugged.
“I thought I
told you to keep me out of the Bayside Blogger’s column.”

Falling
for the Right Brother
Saved by the blog!
This just in, fair readers! Chic and stunning,
that gorgeous new woman about town is none other than our very own little
Ellie--now Elle--Owens. She's a far cry from the frumpy, bookish student we
used to know, but then, living in Italy will do that to a girl! Still, this
blogger can't forget the infamous video that caused her to leave!
Apparently Miss Elle has been spotted with
yummy contractor Cam Dumont...but we thought her heart belonged to his little
brother. Are Cam and Elle a new couple? They were seen cooling their passions
in the bay...in April! If this is love, let's hope she's swimming with the
right brother. The Bayside Blogger will keep you posted.
Bidding
on the Bachelor
Another roll of the
dice
Big
news, fair readers! Bayside High's favorite It Girl is back. Would you have bet
Clarissa Blackwell would ever return? Ten years ago, she crushed Jasper
Dumont's heart under her Jimmy Choos and left town for a bigger, better life.
Her return raises one question: What is she running from (or is it to) now?
Perhaps
Jasper knows? One look at Carissa and he fell in the bay! (Rich, single and
devastatingly handsome, Jasper's our catch of the day.) That icy plunge should
have brought him to his senses, yet "Casper" has been spotted
together all over town. Does this mean Bayside's legendary couple may reunite?
The stakes are high, but the Bayside Blogger's money is riding on love!
