October 25th release
A new, shockingly forbidden standalone from New York Times bestselling authors Penelope Ward and Vi Keeland…
Sometimes one floor is all that separates the life you planned from the life you never saw coming…
Moving to New York with my boyfriend, Calder, was supposed to be a fresh start.
A new city. A new job. A beautiful brownstone in Brooklyn we'd call home. The beginning of our forever.
There was just one catch: Calder’s best friend lived in the apartment downstairs.
Rafe—a gifted artist who smashed glass into masterpieces. With his unruly blond hair and piercing eyes that seemed to see right through me, he was impossible to ignore.
He was also completely off-limits.
Yet somehow, every walk past his apartment or trip to the basement laundry room turned into another deep conversation neither of us ever wanted to end.
At first, it was innocent.
Then I found myself looking forward to running into him again.
Before long, I was creating opportunities to be around him.
Somehow, Rafe and I made each other feel seen in ways neither of us expected.
I tried to ignore our connection, reminding myself that Calder’s best friend was the last man on Earth I could ever fall for.
But with every stolen moment, that lie became harder to believe.
Maybe some love stories aren't about finding the right person—but what happens when you find them too late.
Get Ready!
✔️ Boyfriend's best friend
✔️ ALL the angst

Review of Smash
Smash by Penelope WardMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I couldn’t breathe until I hit the last page of Smash by Penelope Ward and Vi Keeland. I forgot my phone existed, and that’s saying a lot coming from this book addict and social media doom-scroller. Penelope and Vi absolutely SMASHED this incredible new release.
My advice? Go into this book blind. Don’t read spoilers. Let Talia, Calder, and Rafe’s story unfold exactly the way it’s supposed to. It’s complicated. I mean, what could possibly go wrong when you move in with your meh boyfriend and his hot, talented best friend lives one floor down?
My favorite writing duo unleashed the angst, heat, and heart with this one. Talia, Calder, and Rafe’s tumultuous relationship felt like watching a car crash unfold in real time, and I couldn’t look away. The guilt eating Talia alive. The passion. The impossible choices. THE ANGST. There were moments when I wanted to skip ahead because I had to know what happened, but I didn’t want to miss a single word. My blood pressure meds need a refill after this one. At times, I wanted to smash my Kindle or hug all three of them.
Smash was messy, emotional, sexy, and completely addictive. This is the most forbidden book Penelope and Vi have written, and I want more, please and thank you.
