Kait Whittier has built her magazine column into a hugely respected read followed by fans across the country. She loves her work and adores her grown children, treasuring the time they spend together. But after two marriages, she prefers to avoid the complications and uncertainties of a new love. Then, after a chance meeting with
television producer Zack Winter, everything changes. Inspired by the true story of her own grandmother, Kait creates the storyline for a TV series. Within weeks, Kait is plunged into a colourful, star-studded world of actors and industry pros who will bring her vision to life, from the reclusive grand dame to LA's hottest bad boy actor. As secrets are shared and revelations come to light, the cast grows closer...
But in the midst of this charmed year, Kait is forced to confront the greatest challenge a mother could ever know and this unforgettable cast becomes more important to her than she ever could have imagined.
The perfect festive romance involving a very creative misuse of a popcorn garland, a grand Christmas romantic gesture and getting snowed in with only one bed . . . There are two things you should know about Atlas 'Max' Maxheimer. One: he has the presence of a six-foot-four lumberjack with a knack for making people smile. Two: he lives and breathes the holidays. Not only is he the reigning victor of the annual town Christmas contest, but his family have a literal Christmas tree farm. 'Tis his damn season. And she's going to ruin everything.
Betty is new in town, full of holiday cheer and, worst of all, is helping her uncle open a rival tree farm next door. Max is convinced she's out to destroy everything he loves. Betty thinks Max might be one sleigh short of a winter parade. And they're having way too much fun trying to outdo each other. After Christmas chaos, public humiliation and booby traps that Home Alone would be proud of, it only takes a blizzard, a romantic cottage and only one bed for the sparks between Max and Betty to ignite . . .

From BookTok sensation Emily McIntire comes a dark and delicious
fractured fairy tale reimagining of The Wizard of Oz. A woman can
be great, and terrible too. Evelina Westerly has always been the
bad guy. As the brains, brawn, and botanist behind her family's
drug empire, she's her father's ruthless secret weapon. With her
days divided between perfecting her greenhouse, seeking revenge for
her sister's murder, and putting a gun to the head of anyone in her
way, Evelina doesn't have time for anything else. Especially not
for love. After a one-night stand with a gorgeous man at a
nightclub, she's sated her urges and is back to her criminal ways.
That is, until that same man shows up as the new Westerly
lackey...under a totally different name. But Nicholas Woodsworth's
real secret is much more dangerous than an alias. He's an
undercover DEA agent, and he's hell-bent on destroying the drug
trade that devastated his family. When he realizes the youngest
daughter of the Westerly empire is the same woman he's been
fantasizing about since that night at the club, attraction wars
violently with disgust. Evelina embodies everything he's against,
and he's been sent here to be her downfall. Yet the more they learn
about the darkness in each other's hearts, the more alike they
seem, and when hatred turns to something more, Nicholas will have
to decide whether he can love a wretched woman, even if it means
bringing both of their lives to ruin.
It was never the case of good people doing nothing; rather if they
are prepared to cross the line and kill. After a chance meeting
with two investigative journalists, Sam discovers that a man he
hasn't seen for over twenty years and those he loves. Confronted
with that realisation, he is led on a quest where he will be forced
to take the long reach back and place his trust in someone who once
betrayal him. But can he forgive that betrayal for the sake of a
young child held by captors for whom violence holds no boundaries?
And when Penny finds herself face to face with a date in history
when the world was at war - a date that has become Sam's moral
compass - little does she know that for one man, knowledge that of
that moral compass, and that it is Sam's Achilles heel, will bring
the two men together for one final showdown. The question is: who
will walk away the victor and who will not?
Suddenly out of the blue a letter arrived that would change Norma's
life completely. After reading it and not really taking in what was
written there she read it a second time asking herself 'Why Me'!
She could not believe what was written there and kept saying to
herself over and over 'Why Me' why has he left it to me? It must be
meant for someone else! She couldn't be that lucky could she? After
all the dark days she had endured since her husband Ben had died so
suddenly this would be some sort of miracle if it was true but she
knew it couldn't possibly be! But what if? A 'New Chapter in her
Life' about to begin and if so where might it lead?
A rollicking, big-hearted story of long-lost love, friendship, and a life well-lived, set at a Florida retirement resort for queer women, on the last day of resident Hannah Cardin’s life.
It’s 2067 and Florida is partially underwater, but even that can’t bring down the residents of Palm Meridian Retirement Resort, a utopian home for queer women who want to revel in their twilight years. Inside, Hula-Hoopers shimmy across the grass, fiercely competitive book clubs nearly come to blows, and the roller-ski team races up and down the winding paths. Everywhere you look, these women are living large.
Hannah Cardin has spent ten happy years under these tropical, technicolor skies, but after receiving a terminal cancer diagnosis, she has decided that tomorrow morning she will close her eyes for the very last time. Tonight, however, Hannah and her raucous band of friends are throwing one hell of an end-of-life party. And with less than twenty-four hours left, Hannah is holding out for one final, impossible thing…
Amongst the guest list is Sophie, the love of Hannah’s life. They haven’t spoken since their devastating breakup over forty years ago, but today, Hannah is hoping for the chance to give her greatest love one last try.
As Hannah anxiously awaits Sophie’s arrival, her mind casts back over the highs and lows of her kaleidoscopic life. But when a shocking secret from the past is revealed, Hannah must reconsider if she can say goodbye after all.
Spanning the course of a single day and seventy-odd years, and bursting with irresistible hope, humor, and wisdom, this one-of-a-kind novel celebrates the unexpected moments that make us feel the most alive.
In the sequel to Heart in Two, Lotus finds herself sinking deeper into the world of the Wolves Gang. She tries to hide what she did from her boyfriend and in the process ropes in more people into the mess, burns some bridges and sometimes ends up with blood on her hands.
She also deals with a relentless stalker, death, loss and a drastic change in her life. She finally gets to meet her father but that does not go as expected. She forms an unexpected alliance that keeps her alive and saves her time and time again.
It seems like the more she tries to make things right, the worse they get.
