A swoony small-town romance that will set your heart racing.
Trust doesn’t come easily when you’ve been running for as long as I
have, which is why moving in with a man I barely know is such a bad
idea.
Shepard Colson is all golden-boy charm and devastating good looks. But
I know the dangers of easy smiles and promises—I have the scars to
prove it.
Only the handsome contractor won’t stop coming by the bakery and prying
little truths from my lips—those amber eyes of his seeing far too much.
And when secrets from my past come crashing down, it’s Shep who’s
determined to keep me safe. Even if it means moving into my rundown
cabin and working his way into my heart.
But a ghost from my old life has unfinished business. And when he finds
me, he’ll do anything to tear my life apart.
Including ending it for good. . .
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Just for the Summer comes a playful yet deeply emotional romance where one date is all it takes for two people to know they're perfect for each other . . . until one of them moves 2,000 miles away the next day.
There's no such thing as a perfect guy, but Xavier Rush comes disastrously close. A gorgeous veterinarian giving Greek god vibes—all while cuddling a tiny kitten? Immediate yes. That is until Xavier opens his mouth and proves that even sculpted gods can say the absolute wrong thing. Like, really wrong. Of course, there’s nothing Samantha loves more than proving an asshole wrong . . . unless, of course, he can admit he made a mistake.
But after one incredible and seemingly endless date, Samantha is forced to admit the truth, that her family is in crisis and any kind of relationship would be impossible. Samantha begs Xavier to forget her. To remember their night together as a perfect moment, as crushing as that may be. Only no amount of distance or time is enough to forget what's between them. And the only thing better than one single perfect memory is to make a life—and even a love—worth remembering.

It's been nearly a year since everything happened between Magnolia Parks and BJ Ballentine on the steps of the Mandarin Oriental, and it seems like everything since then has changed.
Magnolia has a life in New York now and BJ appears to have finally let go and moved on.
But when they both wind up back to London and are thrust together once again, they find themselves asking their age-old question: how many loves do you actually get in a lifetime, and most importantly - are they each other's?
Hallie Woods works at her dream magazine in NYC, so when she's given
her very own column, she can't believe her luck - even if it is a
little unconventional. Hallie must find and date the hottest guy on
Wall Street, trust fund, 6'5, blue eyes and all, and document every
moment of it. But as she flirts with all of the gilet clad men she can
find, there's one who keeps getting in her way.
On paper, James Rossi is the typical finance bro. But, after being
burned by an ex-girlfriend who used him for his money, he's also
fiercely protective of himself, and his friends. So when he realises
there's a girl in his favourite bar every Thursday, trying to flirt
with his colleagues as fodder for an article, he decides to sabotage
her plans.
But as Hallie and James clash week after week over their whiskey sodas,
their dislike for each other turns into something more. Hallie might
have found her man in finance, but she also has a choice to make. Will
she continue to write her article, or take a chance at true love?
