"She’s hiding from scandal. He’s hiding from her. And this small town isn’t big enough for both of their secrets.
Benny Rhodes is perfectly happy with his quiet, small-town life in Bodega Bay. No paparazzi, no screaming fans—just his music, his surfboard, and his well-earned reputation as the guy who always brings the best muffins to town meetings. Most importantly, no one here cares that he used to be a teenage heartthrob. And no one knows that he’s secretly been ghostwriting hit songs for his ex, pop sensation Bree Belacourt.
Bree has built a career out of catchy, uplifting womens’ empowerment anthems, but her latest song—a scathing diss track—might be too good. Now, thanks to her label’s relentless marketing team, it’s set to drop any day, and when it does? The internet is going to explode. Desperate to dodge the fallout, she ditches New York for a sleepy beach town—only to accidentally break into the wrong house and come face-to-face with the guy who disappeared from her life without a goodbye.
When Bree needs to write a new song to fix the mess she made, she joins forces with the only person who’s ever really understood her, completely unaware that she’s been singing his words for years. It’s just like old times again, but the longer she stays, the harder it is for Benny to keep his secret, and the harder it is for Bree to ignore the fact that everything she sings still sounds like him.He needs her out of the house next door before she unravels his entire life. Because neither of them can bear to let history repeat itself.
First in The Belacourts, The Ex-Best Thing is a second-chance closed door romantic comedy set in a small town on the Northern California coast."
"One rejected kiss. Two clashing personalities. And a snowstorm that traps them in an isolated cottage.
Callie Winter is the kind of person who holds everything together—for her family, her friends, her coworkers. But this Christmas, she’s hoping to catch her breath in the Scottish Highlands and maybe rediscover a little joy along the way. A kiss with a charming stranger in a pub? The perfect holiday distraction.
Until he rejects her.
Gavin Mackenzie doesn’t do flings, especially not with tourists who’ll be gone before the snow melts. He’s got enough on his plate—keeping the old family cottage running, managing the quiet that sometimes feels like loneliness, and pretending he’s just fine, thank you very much. The last thing he needs is a whirlwind American trying to kiss him in a pub… or move into his personal space.
But when a snowstorm leaves them stranded together, Callie’s forced to stay with the last man she wants to face. She’s prickly and wounded. He’s charming but distant. And neither of them are prepared for the slow burn that starts to crack their walls.
In between the cocoa and the Christmas tree, they’ll both have to face what they’re really afraid of: asking for what they need… and trusting someone else to give it.
A grumpy-sunshine, snowed-in holiday romance about messy feelings, unexpected healing, and the kind of love that doesn’t need fixing—just the courage to claim it."
"He’s a man with a secret. She’s honest to a fault—and about to blow his cover.
Alice Taylor is ready to leave her small-town life behind and start fresh. When the opportunity to work for billionaire Billy Baxter—who’s launching a professional soccer team—lands in her lap, she jumps at the chance.
Adventure, a new city, and a career? Yes, please.
Only Alice didn’t plan on Will.
Ridiculously sexy, effortlessly charming, and annoyingly professional, Will is her supervisor—the gatekeeper between Alice and her elusive boss. Trying to keep her focus on the job is hard enough, but resisting Will? Nearly impossible.
Sparks fly, office boundaries blur, and Alice finds herself head over heels in a relationship she’s not allowed to be in. What Alice doesn’t know is that behind Will’s witty smile and irresistible charm is a secret—one he’s guarded for years.
One Alice is about to expose.Alice Taylor Is More Than A Princess is a closed door, laugh out loud romcom. In this book expect off-page death of parents and a neglectful parent. Also expect swoony kisses, moments that will make you giggle, and a lovely happy ending--without any explicit scenes."
"FIVE stolen rings, FOUR calling birds, THREE French kisses, TWO falling in love, and a Partridge in a pear tree…
Stella Partridge never expected to move back to her hometown. She never expected to be a house-sitter for the twelve days leading up to Christmas as a desperate bid to earn some extra money. And she definitely never expected to recognize the thief that breaks into the house she's watching: Jack Piorra, her childhood best friend, the one who turned cold and distant overnight and never told her why.
Jack insists there's something in this house that belongs to him. But Stella's not going down without a fight--not in house-sitting, and not in love. If only locking the windows and doors could keep Jack from stealing her heart…"
"Things you bring on a desert island...
- Sunscreen, obviously. Because these Irish freckles of mine will burn, baby, burn, and lobster red is not a great color on me.
- An extra dose of my seizure meds, just in case.
- A backpack full of snacks, including but not limited to a canteen of Dr. Pepper, a box of mini Christmas cookies, and granola bars-the gross crumbly kind, not the chocolate chip kind, because I'm trying to be healthy.
- Sunglasses, so that when I inevitably wind up staring at my brother's best friend-who I haven't seen in years-no one will be able to tell. I've been in love with him for years, but it would never work out; he lives on a literal island, while I'm still in grad school. It can't hurt to look, though, right?
- Also bug spray.
My packing list is all well and good for a quick port excursion as part of my family's Christmas cruise. But when the cruise ship leaves me behind, with only the contents of my bag and my brother's best friend to keep me company? Well, I've got problems-especially since I'm going to run out of medicine soon. And I don't think they make sunscreen strong enough to block the sparks that are growing between Beckett and me..."
"He has it all, except the one thing money can't buy: her heart.
Cat Keene needs money-and fast-or she'll lose the bed & breakfast that has been in her family for generations.
Noah Belacourt is a billionaire. He wants to help Cat, and not just because he's harbored a crush on her since they were teens. But Cat is stubborn, and she takes some convincing.
When Cat agrees to work as Noah's personal assistant for the summer, she doesn't realize she's signing up for a lot more than debt relief. Noah proves that not all first impressions are reliable, forcing Cat to face the past-and to hope that things will end up just peachy keen after all.
Because the alternative is losing everything that matters to her, and she is not about to let that happen."
"This Christmas, all she wants is him.****
Rachael
I’ve had a crush on my brother’s best friend my entire life. Once, in high school, I even got a taste of what it would be like to be with him thanks to some well-placed mistletoe: incredible and humiliating. We always spend Christmas with Max’s family at our cabin, and every year I have to suffer through a blissful week with him in a completely platonic way. His steady stream of girlfriends have made him off limits . . . until now.
It’s Christmas.
We’re at the cabin together.
And Max Dawson is single.
Max
I’ve never looked forward to Christmas less in my entire life. My parents’ holiday will be ruined after I tell them my news, and to make matters worse, I blabbed to Rachael on the drive out to the cabin. Now she has to keep my secret until I’m ready to share with my family.
Which is probably why she’s acting so weird. Watching me. Touching me. Flirting.
It would be terrible if I wasn’t enjoying it so much.
But her brother has made it clear she’s off limits. And besides, I kissed Rachael once, and we all know how that ended.
So we definitely shouldn’t do it again.
Right?"
"Anything can happen during a blackout. Even finding a soulmate.
That's not what Celine Harris had been thinking during the historic Manhattan power outage of 2019. After hours of facing darkness, who would've guessed the first face she'd see would be one she would never forget!
Musician Garreth King had just come from a tour only to end up on a New York subway to sit in the dark. But it had been well worth the wait after he spotted the most beautiful girl he'd ever seen.
As fate sweeps them back into each other's lives, they'll learn that time has nothing on love.
But I'm Not a Robot is a 8,000-word low-angst BWWM romance novella. While there's loving in the book, it's less of the steamy variety known to come from G.L. Tomas. If you want a labyrinth of twists and turns, conflict and drama, this may not be the book for you. But if you just want to enjoy a quick insta-love/lust romance that happens over the course of a few days to renew your hope in love, jump on for the ride!"
"Magazine journalist Luz knows plenty about sex and hookups — after all, that’s her specialty.
But when she’s assigned to write a column for Valentine’s Day, she decides to use the opportunity to answer a question: Will three nights of mind-blowing sex cause a person to fall in love?
Luz doubts it, but her former flame Evan is ready to take on the challenge…"
"In this fast-paced space military action-adventure, one monster-hunting dark elf begins to question everything he knows-and finds himself surrounded by enemies.
He eliminates the monsters that come from the rift. Vex is the third-highest-ranked striker in the Interplanetary Galactic Force, and he’s gaining fast on number two. Every victory, and every progression in rank, comes with upgraded weapons technology and magic defenses.
But after a decade of loyal servitude to the IGF, he’s finding himself at odds with his fellow elves. His shadow fox phenome has begun whispering strange warnings. The monsters he’s hunting are no longer mindless beasts: They’ve somehow grown sentient. And while Vex has always stayed out of politics, he’s beginning to suspect corruption even in his own force. Someone is allying themselves with the cyber realm.
In this high-octane thrill ride with intricate characters, majestic apocalyptic settings, and death around every corner, Vex’s fight for survival hits twist after shocking twist. He might be the only one who can stop a corrupt game world filled with unfathomable enemies.
But it’s the ones closest to you who do you the most harm."
