"This is friends-to-lovers romancebut it's in the science-fiction story line where Cole really shines. The setup of Mixed Signals seems eerily plausible, and the entwined love story will satisfy sci-fi and romance readers alike." New York Times bestselling author Sarah MacLean, Washington Journal, Best Romances of November 2015 Four years after the Flare, the world is finally starting to rebuild For Maggie Seong, that means leaving the safety of her family's cabin for college. She won't be alone, thoughhunky former military cadet Edwin Hernandez, family friend and self-appointed Protector of Maggie's Virtue, will be there. Maggie would much prefer that Edwin himself dispose of her "innocence," but he's already rejected her advances once, and a girl has her pride. Things look pretty bleak romance-wise until Maggie discovers that Devon, the pre-Flare internet boyfriend she'd assumed was dead, is not only alive but on campus. Despite the passage of time, their bond is strong, and they quickly pick up where they left off. Even as Devon aims for a chance at love IRLeverything Maggie thought she'd wantedEdwin's desire to protect her makes her question her heart. Maggie's torn between the future she didn't dare to hope for and the past she can't let go of. And when a group of neo-Luddite terrorists threaten the campus, everyone's loyalties will be tested. To ensure that the world doesn't go back to the dark days following the Flare, Maggie might have to sacrifice it all. Book three of Off the Grid.

Surprisingly, there‘s not much that happens in this post-apocalyptic series, but the romances are fun—and different than what I‘ve read from Cole. #readblackauthors #bookspinbingo

Jas16 I really need to read the third book. For some reason I paused after the second and never went back even though I liked them. 4y

Reviewsbylola Lol! It happens. 😆 5y
Cinfhen I did jot down the Acne Patches for my son though @Reviewsbylola @Bookwormjillk 5y
Reviewsbylola Check out The Ordinary skincare products! Idk if he will follow a whole skincare regimen but I‘ve seen others have great results with it. Also the Mario Badescu spot treatment! 5y
Cinfhen Thanks @Reviewsbylola he‘s been getting occasional breakouts and it‘s driving him nuts!! I‘m sure he would commit to a whole skincare regime 5y
Reviewsbylola I had two zits last week and you would have thought my world was ending. I wanted to put a paper bag over my head. 🤣 @emilyhaldi was not amused and did not feel bad, although she let me borrow her spot treatment! (edited) 5y
Cinfhen My favorite acne spot treatment was a correction stick by Murad but they discontinued it @Reviewsbylola I‘m sooooo upset 😡 5y

Darcy wants in. #catsoflitsy Meanwhile, amusing writing of the calling out of casual racism :)

LindsayReads But isn't "nihao" Mandarin? 8y
LindsayReads (Not Japanese even...) 8y
Leniverse @LindsayReads Yeah... so the Korean can't tell Mandarin and Japanese apart, and the fan of AsianTV-shows can't either. I'm not sure if that makes it funnier, sadder, or just more confusing. 🤔 8y

Leniverse @LindsayReads I guess the big question is, does Alyssa Cole know the difference? 8y
LindsayReads @Leniverse My thoughts exactly! 8y
Lauredhel @Leniverse I thought that was her taking the piss, but maybe not? 8y

Original concept from other post-apocalyptic narratives I've read. This story is set years after the major events of a nationwide blackout and society has decayed but is getting back on its feet enough that our heroine is moving to one of the new colleges training workers and engineers. She is joined by her crush Edwin who is like a big brother to her. That relationship is tense as is one with an old ex. Enjoyable quick romance.
