Grace Hastings's dream job at the popular 'true love' dating app, Fate, has turned into a nightmare. Her boss is a leech, her career is stagnating, and her fiancé has just brutally dumped her. Her hope for finding her own love story is waning, and she feels like a fraud for promoting a concept she no longer believes in. When the company's CEO offers her an opportunity to earn a big promotion, she resolves to fight her imposter syndrome to show she deserves a seat at the table.
The opportunity? To launch a brand-new app focusing on IRL dating and genuine connection.
The problem? She must develop and test drive a series of 'first dates' with the other person gunning for the job: notorious socialite playboy and Grace's biggest work rival, Eric Bancroft.
During their disastrous hikes, dangerous cooking classes and steamy yoga sessions, they begin to realise their stark differences may just be surface level and Eric might just be the perfect person to challenge Grace's perceptions of love, dating culture and self-worth.
Their marriage is one of convenience. Inconveniently, they’ve fallen in love...
Professor Elodie Tarrant is an expert in magical disasters. Nothing fazes her—except her own personal disaster, that is: Professor Gabriel Tarrant, the grumpy, unfriendly man she married for convenience a year ago, whom she secretly loves.
Gabriel is also an expert in magical disasters. And nothing fazes him either—except the walking, talking tornado that is his wife. They’ve been estranged since shortly after their wedding day, but that hasn’t stopped him from stoically pining for her.
When magic erupts in a small Welsh village, Elodie and Gabriel are accidentally both assigned to the case. With the fate of the country in their hands, they face perilous conditions like explosions, domesticated goats, and only one bed.
These geography professors are lost. But can they find their way into each other’s hearts – and save the day?

anyone jeopardise her hard-won freedom; she survived captivity
once, but she couldn't do it again. Reluctantly returning to

daughter, Katherine unknowingly rescues celebrated naval captain
James Warre...a powerful, virile man who represents the rigid
society she despises. Regretting his role in her past, James is
determined to be more than a ruthless, cold naval officer and will
add his support to her fight for her inheritance. Katherine and her
seduction are rapidly becoming his obsession. And the scorching
attraction between them masks a secret that could force the two of
them apart forever!
He's worried she won't stay. She's worried she will.
The last place city girl Cecily Kennedy expected to end up was a cattle

soon-to-be-ex-husband.
If only her new boss, Austin Wells, would make it clear whether he
hates her or wants her. His gaze makes her feel things she hasn't in
years. Though getting over her ex by getting under her grumpy boss
isn't worth the potential fallout.
Austin's a gruff, no-nonsense rancher who's seriously regretting
letting his head cook hire her own help. As far as he's concerned,
Cecily won't be sticking around for long. Nobody ever stays. And the
wedding ring indent still on her finger makes her more trouble than
she's worth.
When Cecily's past catches up with her, Austin discovers that she's
already placed a branding iron on his heart. He wants her to stay. But
first he needs to keep her safe . . .
