'I didn’t ask to organize this wedding, and I certainly didn’t ask for the world’s worst best man as an assistant. But my brother is marrying the love of his life, and I’ll stop at nothing to give him a perfect wedding day—and get our family’s Inn some much-needed publicity in the process. And that means playing nice with James Weston. My brother’s best friend and I have been feuding for as long as I can remember. We don’t like each other, plain and simple—or is it? Is it possible that James isn’t the monster I’ve always thought him to be? And why does he keep showing up to save me right when I need him? (Not that I’d EVER admit it) Falling for James is not on my carefully color-coordinated agenda. Too bad nothing seems to go according to plan when James Weston is around... The Next Worst Thing is a sweet rom-com with all the swoony kisses and chemistry, but no explicit content. Enjoy ridiculous mishaps, a hilarious cast of quirky small-town characters, and a heartwarming HEA that’s sure to give you all the feels.'
'In the wake of a very public—and very scandalous—breakup, country music star Lydia St. Peter finds herself in need of a place of refuge. She doesn’t know why she thinks she’ll find it with the family she never knew she had in River Falls, Tennessee, but at least the small town will offer her the privacy she so desperately craves. She never expected it to offer more—in the form of her new landlord, Liam, and his troubled teenage daughter. When single dad Liam returns to his hometown of River Falls, it’s with the intention of taking care of his mother and protecting his daughter. He knows his own happiest years are behind him. They died with his wife. What he doesn’t see coming is the instant connection with the new tenant staying in his mother’s carriage house. As Lydia feels the pull of family and Liam allows himself to open to the possibility of love again, a new relationship starts to blossom. But when Lydia is presented with an opportunity that could rocket her to household-name status, she has to decide whether she’s willing to give up everything she’s gained in River Falls to chase her dreams—or if her heart has finally found its home.'
'Kyle Davies is doing fine. She has her routine, after all, ingrained in her from years of working as a baker: wake up, make breakfast, prep the dough, make lunch, work the dough, make dinner, bake dessert, and go to bed. It's a good routine, and it's almost enough to help her forget the scars on her wrist, that she lost her job at the bakery when she checked herself in as an inpatient at Hope House, then signed away all decisions about her life, medical care, and wellbeing to Dr. Booth. Now a new item's been added to her daily to-do list: stare out her window at the coffee shop across the street and its hot owner, Jackson. It's healthy to have eye candy when you're locked in the psych ward, right? So when Dr. Booth allows Kyle to leave the facility, she decides to up the stakes a little more. Why not see what Jackson's like in person? Turns out that Jackson's a jerk with a heart of gold, a deadly combination that Kyle finds herself drawn to more than she should be. At a time when Dr. Booth delivers near-constant warnings about the dangers of romantic entanglements, Kyle is pulled further and further into Jackson's orbit. Is Jackson too much for her to handle? Does love come at the cost of sanity?'
It's not true that you can't go home again, but do you want to?

Stranded…with my nemesis. AXEL: It’s bad enough an unseasonal blizzard means I’m stuck with my PA’s annoying cat, but to make matters worse, Mia Samson and her poison pen are in my house too. The renowned reviewer has tanked enough books with her dreaded DNF and I need to teach her a lesson. But my enemy is not what I expect and if I’m not careful, I’m in danger of revealing my secret to the one person who can use it against me. MIA: I know people in publishing call me the career-wrecker behind my back. What they don’t know is, I’m writing a novel, and when I’m lucky enough to win a week-long retreat with bestselling Axel Low in quaint Sugar Plain, Nebraska, I’m thrilled. Until I discover being snowed in with the reclusive grump is merely the first trope my life has turned into, and soon I’m sorely tempted to enact enemies to lovers… Which one of us will lose the plot first?

La vida de Bella es un desastre: ha sido descartada en su última entrevista de trabajo, su pez, Felipe, ha muerto después de acompañarla durante casi diez años y la parte trasera de su coche ha quedado destrozada por un golpe que le ha dado otro vehículo.
¿Lo único que la anima? Su mejor amigo, Alberto, quien le propone salir para olvidarse de todos sus problemas. A quien no espera encontrarse esa noche es a Logan, el chico del que estaba enamorada cuando era una niña.
Logan se ha convertido en un reputado cirujano que ofrece a Bella un empleo temporal. ¿El problema? La química que surge entre ellos hace que, poco a poco y sin quererlo, ninguno de los dos quiera separarse del otro ni un solo minuto…
Cuando tu mejor amiga se casa y tú sigues soltera, te agarras una buena cogorza. Si no, no es la boda de tu mejor amiga. Punto. Eso sí, lo de acabar intimando a lo loco con él no estaba previsto.
En mi defensa, debo decir que asistí a la boda sin la supervisión de un adulto, lo mínimo que necesito para no liarla parda cuando hay barra libre y un soltero apetecible en la zona.
¿En qué momento me pareció que aquello era una buena idea? Al final, iba a pagar caro el no ceñirme al plan original de emborracharme. Nada salió como había esperado, a pesar de que aquella noche fue mágica.
Pero lo que son las cosas: aunque nos habíamos prometido distancia, el maldito (o bendito) destino hizo que no tuviéramos más remedio que volver a colisionar.
Michael Gallo tiene una vocación: la lucha de artes marciales mixtas, y, aunque trabaja en Tatuado, la tienda de tatuajes de su familia, donde se encarga de los piercings, se pasa las mañanas entrenando para alcanzar su sueño de ser el campeón de su categoría. Michael está centrado en su objetivo cuando un encuentro casual altera su existencia para siempre. A partir de entonces, ganar el campeonato ya no será suficiente para él: debe conquistar también a la mujer de sus sueños.
La doctora Mia Greco se dedica a salvar vidas en urgencias y a ayudar a los más necesitados en una clínica benéfica. Su apretada agenda no le permite salir con ningún hombre: está centrada en su trabajo. Sin embargo, la intervención del destino hace que su vida se cruce con la de Michael y que sus objetivos pasen a un segundo plano. Pero el hombre que le ha robado el corazón usa los puños para ganarse la vida, y eso va en contra de todas sus creencias. Además, aunque Michael no es de los que aceptan un no por respuesta, tiene un secreto que podría destrozar su relación antes de que empiece.
En sus vidas hay implicadas fuerzas que no pueden controlar, que los atraen y hacen que sus mundos colisionen una y otra vez, y que no permiten que ninguno de ellos se aleje del otro.
Puede que no sea el diablo, pero trabajar para él durante seis semanas es mi idea del infierno.
Hayes Flynn es un cabrón arrogante, inmensamente rico, conocido por su afición a las fiestas y por la forma en que reparte su «encanto» británico por todo Hollywood, sin repetir nunca con la misma mujer. Es la última persona para la que quiero trabajar, aunque es guapo por castigo, y cuanto más tiempo pasamos juntos, más me cuesta odiarlo. Porque debajo de su fachada engreída hay un corazón que no quiere mostrar, y que alguien le rompió en pedazos diez años atrás.
Parte de mí quiere recomponérselo antes de marcharme, pero… ¿podré hacerlo sin que se rompa el mío por el camino?
A woman moves to a town where she becomes obsessed with watching the lives of her neighbors while stuck in a house that refuses to let her leave in this first ever short story from the New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Cold Cases.
Is there something wrong with Ginette Cox? It's what everyone seems to think. When a doctor suggests that what she might need is less excitement, she packs up and moves from New York City to a house in suburban NY: 19 Howard Ave.
The town offers Ginette little in the way of entertainment in 1959, but at least she has interesting neighbors. Whether it's the little girl with her doll or the couple and their mother-in-law, Ginette watches them from her window and makes up names and stories for them.
But it's not all peaceful in suburbia. Ginette finds it hard to sleep in her new house. There are strange and scary noises coming from the basement, and she is trapped, either by a ghost or her own madness.
But when Ginette starts to think a murder has taken place and a mysterious man starts making terrifying appearances outside her window, it's clear she must deal with whatever isn't allowing her to escape this house…
