Two strangers. One couple's photoshoot. What could possibly go wrong? I'm Elsie Faren and I hate love. Err, not hate, exactly. More like I no longer believe in it. After watching my parents divorce, then dumping my deadbeat boyfriend, I realized the idea of love is a fantasy. For four years I've been perfectly content to remain single and alone, but now my best friend has tricked me into doing a couple's photoshoot with a stranger. Unfortunately, that stranger, Jameson Beck, has somehow managed to worm his way into my life, convincing me to go on three dates with him. I was so certain that my hardened heart would be immune to his sunshine demeanor and kind soul. Little did I know that between all my fears, our flirting, and some flying donuts, there would be a sizzling spark between us...one that would have my heart begging to be let out of its cage. But I've seen the effects of broken love-and I can't risk it-not even for Jameson. ...Right?
Fake dating my arch-nemesis during Christmas...what's the worst that could happen? One year ago, Oliver Lewis ruined my life by winning the community college photography contest-now he's ruined it again by scratching my car. Did I mention it's Christmastime? Now, while my car is being repaired, I'm forced to let Oliver chauffeur me around Meridel. But I've found a silver lining! If I win England's most prestigious photo competition, I can finally pay off my debt and move forward with my life. The only problem is, one of the judges is Oliver's father, and to better my chances, I have to get cozy with my arch-nemesis. AKA: pretend to be his girlfriend for Christmas. I thought it would be simple, but I did not expect that underneath that smug, arrogant exterior there'd be a sweet, thoughtful man who would find every excuse to be near me. But it doesn't matter. I, Maya Beck, will not fall for Oliver Lewis. My future rests on winning this contest and nothing-and no one-will get in the way of that. Especially not an annoyingly handsome British man. The Mistletoe Bluff is a sweet, closed-door romantic comedy with laugh-out-loud moments, sizzling chemistry, and swoony kisses.

Not a meet-cute. A matchstrike. Lucifer Morningstar thought he was hunting a prophecy: find the woman, plant the seed, jumpstart the apocalypse, and earn his way out of exile. Banished in mortal skin, he hides as the shadow-owner of The Revel, Las Vegas’s most decadent sin palace… until her. Evie Grace is pink hair, combat boots, and eyeliner sharp enough to cut a lie in half. She came to Vegas to forget. The last thing she needs is the man in the black suit who watches her like he’s trying to remember. He shouldn’t touch her. She shouldn’t want him. But their attraction ignites, reckless and consuming, and every kiss feels like a song Lucifer has sung a thousand times… and can’t remember now. Angels are circling. Hell is whispering. Lilith is counting the minutes. And memories are surfacing, humming with a truth sharp enough to split the universe. What if everything was a lie? What if Lucifer wasn’t cast out for ambition or vanity… but for loving her? He’ll burn Heaven to the ground before he lets it take her again. The First Sin is a sin-drenched, myth-laced romantasy of forbidden heat and celestial war, where the greatest blasphemy isn’t pride. It’s love.

Sometimes forever starts with the last person you want. Darci Griffin has sworn off romance—and the cocky new neighbor who catches her in the world’s most humiliating moment. She’s a children’s librarian with a fortress around her heart, an expert at dodging feelings and first dates. Alex Dixon is all sharp edges and bottled-up grief, a widower who lost everything and decided wanting nothing was safer. From their first clash—snark, sparks, and one infuriatingly good deed—they can’t stop colliding: hallway skirmishes, reluctant favors, late-night arguments that turn into the kind of confessions you only make in the dark. What starts as irritation becomes chemistry that won’t be ignored: laughter that sneaks up on them, heat that makes rules feel irrelevant, and a tenderness neither of them thought they’d earn again. But choosing each other means risking what they’ve spent years protecting—her battered belief in being unlovable, his vow to never break a heart or his own again. If they’re brave enough to drop their armor, the enemies they were might just make room for the lovers they’re meant to be. SOMETIME AROUND MIDNIGHT is a steamy, heart-mending enemies-to-lovers romance about second chances, messy healing, and the moment you realize home is a person who argues with you…and stays.
