Books@Stones event: Cross the Line by Lauren Jackson

Join us at Books@Stones on Thursday 5 February for a special in-conversation event with bestselling Australian romance author Lauren Jackson discussing her latest novel, Cross the Line.

An addictive fake-dating college sports romance for fans of Elle Kennedy, Hannah Cowan and Peyton Corinne from a bestselling Australian romance author.

Nora Robertson has two rules: remain invisible and don’t tell anyone you're the anonymous author of the hottest romance series in the country.

When her family starts grilling her about being perpetually single, she needs a wedding date fast. Cue Zayden Stark — a charming, chaotic bad boy. Her best friend’s brother.

Between the mounting pressure of football and grades that could risk him losing his scholarship, the last thing Zayden needs is a distraction.

So Nora and Zayden strike a deal: tutoring in exchange for a plus-one. But as steamy nights blur the line between fake and real, Nora begins to realise that she and Zayden might be taking their fake romance way too far.

With their past coming back to haunt them, and a stalker threatening to expose their secrets to the world, Nora and Zayden may have taken on more than they bargained for.
