Excerpt Reveal: Changed By You

We are ONE WEEK away from the release of Changed By You (LITC, #7), and I’m so excited to finally share Cash’s story with you guys! I’m also thrilled with how I ended the Love in the City series, and I hope you guys agree with the ending for all the couples! Below is an excerpt from Cash’s Chapter One! Please enjoy, don’t forget to preorder, if you haven’t already, and please consider sharing with your fellow romance readers! Thank you so, so much! Happy Wednesday!

Excerpt Changed By You Chapter 1: Cash’s POV copyrighted Steph Nuss 2026:

“Hey, I’m Cash,” I said, reaching my hand out to her. “Cash Donovan. It’s so good to finally meet you.”

“Nice to meet you, too.” She stepped closer and shook my hand. “I’m Lennox. I assume you’ll be the one interviewing me?”

I nodded, taking in the intoxicating scent of her fruity perfume.

Was it berries and lemon? Lemon blueberries?

“Great!” she said with a clap of her hands. “Shall we get started? I’m ready whenever you are.”

“Sure, right this way.” I waved her toward my workstation.

She smiled and gripped my upper arm, feeling my muscle. Licking her lips and leaning into me, she whispered, “We’re not sticking to the cue cards, right?”

I laughed harder and shook my head. “Hell no, we aren’t.”

“I think I like you already.”

A girl after my own ridiculousness. I’m in love already.

“Seriously?” Drake deadpanned.

Paige chuckled. “I don’t know why you even tried.”

Lennox sat down in the seat I pulled out for her. “Is there anything you’d like before we start? Anything to drink?”

“Thank you.” Pleased with my chivalry, she answered, “I’ve got my green tea in my bag, so I’m good.”

“You’re welcome,” I said. “Let me get these two out of here and we’ll get going.”

“Perfect!”

I shooed Drake and Paige out of the booth, but Drake tried one more time to get Lennox to listen to him about sticking to the preset questions before she flicked her wrist at him and said, “Bro, get the hell out of here. I’m working and you’re in the way.”

I shot him an arrogant grin and shut the door in his face.

With narrowed eyes, he pointed a finger at me. “I swear, Donovan, I will have your ass if you go rogue!”

Oh, I’m going rogue.

Xo,

Steph

Changed By You – Steph Nuss Copyright 2026

           The screen of my phone lit up with a text from Paige.

            Paige: Get. It. Together. Stop eye-f*cking Cash.

            I glanced over at her through the glass wall of the booth, and she shook her head at me. Drake stood with his back to the booth, head down, hands on hips, already regretting this.

            Oh God, he really was nervous.

            Me: I can’t help it! Eye f*cks are involuntary sometimes, like eye rolls.

            I watched her read my message. She smirked and looked up at me with her brows raised before waving her hand across her neck in a slicing motion, signaling for me to cut it out.

He’s a womanizing, airwave celebrity with no intention of settling down.

Cash Donovan interviews musicians on a weekly basis. He’s used to sharing the studio with fame and entertaining his fans. But when he lands an interview with the award-winning artist, Lennox, he’s thrilled.

She’s the rocker who’s satisfied with being single.

Lennox has made a name for herself, and now she’s back in the studio, working on new music and enjoying her downtime. When her publicist books her a radio interview, she couldn’t be more excited to meet the notorious radio host, Cash Donovan.

But during their interview, the conversation turns flirtatious, and he’s urged by fans to ask her out on a date. He obliges and she agrees with one condition: don’t make her regret him.

In this heartfelt, hilarious conclusion to the Love in the City series, New York’s favorite, smooth-talking radio host has a change of heart thanks to America’s rock chick, but will he be able to persuade her into forever with him? Tune in to 101.7 WLVE to find out.

can be read as a standalone!

PREORDER: Changed By You (LITC, #7)

Hey, everyone!

We are just two months shy from the release of the last Love in the City book, Changed By You (LITC, #7) on October 28th, and I’m so excited to share with you the preorder links for it! You’ll not only get all the fun and banter from the LITC group of friends, but you’ll also be introduced to Cash’s family (his parents and four sisters) as well as Lennox Wilkin’s best friend, Clara. They were all so much fun to write and add in for some hilarious moments in the book. Could I see myself eventually giving all four of his sisters their own stories? Um, yes, because you know I love when a secondary character gets their own story!
