He was my best friend’s brother. My neighbor. The one person I was never supposed to fall for, until lines got blurred – stolen kisses and lies told to the people we loved most.

Jake Summers

When the secrets we’d been keeping came out, broken hearts weren’t the only casualties. Though I’ve spent years chasing my dreams of being a professional soccer player, I’ve never forgotten the one who got away.

A chance encounter brings me back face to face with the only person I’ve ever loved.

Can we repair what’s been broken?
Has time healed the scars that run deeper than the surface?
Will the sister between us bring us back together or push us apart yet again?

I was the big man on campus.

Everything in my life was going exactly according to plan until a wrecking ball reminded me that there were more important things than touchdowns, booze, and pretty girls.

In the most turbulent time of my life, I felt lost and defeated until the moment my eyes landed on her.

Sophia Summers is everything I never knew I wanted. A sweet shot of sunshine in the unrelenting hurricane.

There’s just one little problem. She doesn’t trust in love, and she definitely doesn’t trust me.

But I’m a patient man, and she’s worth waiting for. Soon she’ll realize that I want every part of her—the darkness, the light, and the shadows in between. I’m already hers, whether she likes it or not.

No returns, no refunds.

This is the first novel in the Crystal Bay University series by Hailey Dickert.

Return Policy can be read as a standalone; however, since Sophia is a side character from Dickert’s first novel The Sister Between Us, it is suggested to read that first for the best reader experience.

Sometimes it pays to be naughty…

This cheerleader’s been dreaming of a white Christmas—but thanks to wild weather and grounded planes, I’m stuck doing my holiday to-do list (of the sugar and spice variety) without a snowflake in sight.

After an airport run-in with my team’s football coach, there’s hope I may not have to do it alone. Coach Buzzkill, aka James Porter, definitely needs a break from his routine, and my little scavenger hunt could do the trick—if he’ll let it.

But his boundaries have me worried I won’t check off the naughtier items… until his best friend shows up, ready to join the merry mischief.Santa baby.


This holiday novella is the second installment in the Crystal Bay University Series by Hailey Dickert.
