He soon finds himself needing a believable date for his ex’s wedding to silence the noise about him not moving on and works out an arrangement with his neighbor.

Sybil Sweet has always been lucky, but lately she can’t catch a break. After years of bouncing from job to job in search of something that feels right and from man to man in search of something special, Sybil is worried that she’s the directionless, floundering daughter her family thinks she is.

Lucky for Kieran, his attempt to return the ticket looks like a grand romantic gesture and goes viral, sending sales through the roof. In an effort to keep the store afloat and to convince Sybil’s family she can make good relationship choices, they agree to fake a relationship for three months. Even with hundreds of millions of dollars, finding each other might end up being the sweetest bit of luck for both of them.

An old pair of shoes. A new lease on life.
Successful lawyer Julieta Martí is certainly a success on paper: respectable job, good salary, perfect daughter to her immigrant parents. As the eldest daughter, she hoped to do wonderful things with her life, but spent it appeasing her parents and watching over her cousins instead. When Julie’s late grandmother, a famous tango dancer, leaves her shoes to Julie, she doesn’t know what to make of it, but she wonders if it might be a sign to reinvent her life. She secretly signs up for tango classes, keeping it under wraps from her family, and uncovers a buried passion.
World renowned dancer Logan Beck isn’t sure what he wants to do anymore. He’s been dancing since he was thirteen years old, but recent events have left him feeling unsettled. His last competition was rough, his longtime partner is moving away, and he’s not feeling the love for it like he used to.
When Logan meets Julie in class, there’s an unexplainable spark between them. Nobody is more surprised than him when she asks for not only private lessons, but a partner for a competition—the very one he messed up a year earlier. As they tackle the brand new partnership, Julie learns to chase joy in her life, Logan feels his passion for dance reignite, and the fire between them burns even hotter.
But when Julie starts living two lives and Logan’s hope for redemption hangs on the line, something is bound to slip. And it might only be a matter of time before everything falls apart.
Marrying a sexy, outrageous billionaire in Vegas was a wager on my future. His arrival in my small town two weeks later? Not in the prenup.
My deal with Maximiliano Errázuriz is nothing more than a bold business move. He needs a wife to overcome his father’s schemes, and the money he offers will fix all my problems.
To trick his father, we’re living together and pretending we’re in love.
But we’re too different. He’s brazen; full of cheeky smiles and wicked teasing. I’m practical and private. His bespoke suits and exuberant personality clash with the simplicity of my hometown. I hate city living. He thrives in the bright lights.
That is until he shows genuine care for my town, and his eyes turn fiery at the sight of my curves. When he reveals his bruised heart, I melt even more. Soon I can’t resist him at all.
Max is my eccentric souvenir, but forever wasn’t in our vows. People have left me behind before and he will, too. I need to let him go, before I start to believe we belong together and I end up with nothing but a shattered heart.

One of Good Morning America’s 15 books to read heading into spring and a SheReads and Zibby Mag Most Anticipated Book of the Year
The author of Love Buzz follows her acclaimed first novel with a delightful Caribbean-set romp about an ambitious designer of apocalyptic video games with a strategy for (almost) everything who discovers what happens when her best-laid plans go off course . . .
Sloane Cooper is up for her dream job as a designer for a top video game company. During the interview, though, she somehow promises the all-male panel that she’ll remain single and fully dedicated to the work. It’s actually fine—after her last boyfriend cheated on her, she vowed to focus on her career anyway.
Enter Charlie, aka Hot Neighbor Guy, a near-stranger who shocks her with the offer of an all-inclusive trip to a Turks and Caicos resort. The catch? Charlie originally planned the trip with his ex, and asks Sloane to pose as his new girlfriend to make his old flame come running back. Against her better judgment, Sloane says yes; she can use the time away to develop a game design that will dazzle the Catapult team and get her a job offer.
Despite sparks flying in paradise, the trip can’t lead to more. As their connection deepens, Sloane is reminded that she can’t fall for Charlie and get knocked off her professional path. Besides, he’s trying to win back his true love.
Can Sloane figure out a way to move past heartbreak, land the job of her dreams, and avoid catching feelings? The zombie apocalypse would be easier to solve—at least she’s prepared for that.

Latrice Richardson is a thirty eight year old divorced, single mother who has an amazing career and a wonderful eight year old son named Quincy. What she doesn’t have is any semblance of a love life and sex is non-existent.
After a scorching one night stand with a handsome stranger, Nathan Woodson, Latrice never expects to see him again, and definitely not at the front of her son’s classroom!
Nathan Woodson is a former foster kid who loves teaching and has just landed his dream job. The last thing he expected was the sexy enchantress he spent the night with, to be the mother of one of his students.
Despite the two of them both trying to keep things professional, Latrice and Nathan find themselves being drawn closer together. But with nosey school moms on the prowl and his job on the line, they find that love may be too hot for this parent and teacher to handle.
Hot for Teacher is a sexy rom-com that features an older woman/younger man, (somewhat) secret lovers and plenty of high heat.
When two complete opposites agree to fake date in order to solve their cultural dilemmas, they find the only force more powerful than an immigrant mother’s matchmaking schemes might just be true love.
Naomi Kelly will do anything to make her new brand consulting business a success. When she lands a career saving contract to rebrand the Mukherjee family’s failing local bazaar, she knows there can be no mistakes. But as the “oops” baby of a free-spirited Bengali mother, Naomi’s lack of connection to her roots represents everything Gia Mukherjee disdains.
Enter, Dev Mukherjee.
Dev knows everything his mother wants…including her wish for him to get married, like, yesterday. When Gia hires a matchmaker (without, you know, asking him), Dev vows to do whatever it takes to avoid ending up in a cold, loveless marriage. When a potential match assumes Naomi is his girlfriend, the solution to both their problems becomes clear: Naomi will pretend to date Dev in order to sabotage his mother’s matchmaking efforts in exchange for lessons in Bengali culture. Flawless plan, right?
But as Naomi and Dev bond over awful dancing at Garba, couples cooking classes, and tackling the rebrand as a team, they start to realize while their relationship may be fake, their feelings for each other are starting to become very real. As the line between reality and rumor blurs, Naomi and Dev must confront what it means to fit the mold, and decide how much they’re willing to risk for love.

‘A tender and sexy romance that [readers] will absolutely devour’ Library Journal, starred review
From bestselling author, Mia Heintzelman comes a flirty, girls’ getaway, vacation fling turned workplace romance for those who believe in serendipity.
Dante Fortemani’s family never takes his ideas seriously during business meetings, so he zones out. That is, until the agenda includes selling his late grandfather’s struggling vineyard. Desperate, he appeals to his mother and siblings, and buys himself two months to protect their legacy.
Business consultant Morgan Forster is constantly connected to anything with a digital pulse. Her friends believe she’s a stressed-out workaholic in need of an intervention: a Galentine’s Day getaway in wine country, an electronic detox, and hopefully, Mr. Right feeding her grapes.
The Fortemani Vineyard Galentine’s brunch is a smashing success for Dante. Except for the woman hiding in a corner with her phone…who’s convinced he’s an escort hired by her helpful Sister Circle. Soon, laughter, undeniable chemistry, and an unforgettable night, lead Dante to hire Morgan to help save the vineyard. She accepts under one condition: it’s strictly business.
As they tread through an inconvenient attraction to create a proposal before the next meeting, though, their focus yields to blossoming feelings. Is it a mistake for them to mix business with pleasure? Or is a chance at love worth the risk?
Natalie Caña turns up the heat, humor and heart in this debut rom-com about a Puerto Rican chef and an Irish American whiskey distiller forced into a fake engagement by their scheming octogenarian grandfathers.
Kamilah Vega is desperate to convince her family to update their Puerto Rican restaurant and enter it into the Fall Foodie Tour. With the gentrification of their Chicago neighborhood, it’s the only way to save the place. The fly in her mofongo–her blackmailing abuelo says if she wants to change anything in his restaurant, she’ll have to marry the one man she can’t stand: his best friend’s grandson.
Liam Kane spent a decade working to turn his family’s distillery into a contender. But just as he and his grandfather are on the verge of winning a national competition, Granda hits him with a one-two punch: he has cancer and has his heart set on seeing Liam married before it’s too late. And Granda knows just the girl…Kamilah Vega.
If they refuse, their grandfathers will sell the building that houses both their businesses. With their futures on the line, Kamilah and Liam plan to outfox the devious duo, faking an engagement until they both get what they want. But soon, they find themselves tangled up in more than either of them bargained for.
