HALLIE PIPER IS TURNING OVER A NEW LEAF.
After crawling out of a hotel room (hello, rock bottom), she decides it's time to become a full-on adult. She gets a new apartment, a new haircut, and a new wardrobe. But when she logs into the dating app to look for new love, she finds none other than Jack: the guy whose hotel room she'd snuck out of.
After agreeing they are absolutely not interested in each other, Jack and Hallie realise that they're each other's perfect wing-person - and join forces in their searches for The One. They even make a wager to see who can find true love first.
But when they agree to be fake dates for a weekend wedding, all bets are off.
Because as they pretend to be a couple, they struggle to remember why dating for real was a bad idea to begin with...

Liz hates her annoyingly attractive neighbour but he’s the only in with
her long-term crush …
Perpetual daydreamer and hopeless romantic Liz Buxbaum gave her heart
to Michael a long time ago. But her cool, aloof forever crush never
really saw her before he moved away. Now that he’s back in town, Liz
will do whatever it takes to get on his radar—and maybe snag him as a
prom date—even befriend Wes Bennet.
The annoyingly attractive next-door neighbour might seem like a prime
candidate for romantic comedy fantasies, but Wes has only been a pain
in Liz’s butt since they were kids. Pranks involving frogs and
decapitated lawn gnomes do not a potential boyfriend make. Yet,
somehow, Wes and Michael are hitting it off, which means Wes is Liz’s
in.
But as Liz and Wes scheme to get Liz noticed by Michael so she can have
her magical prom moment, she’s shocked to discover that she likes being
around Wes. And as they continue to grow closer, she must re-examine
everything she thought she knew about love—and rethink her own ideas of
what Happily Ever After should look like.
Better Than the Movies features quotes from the best-loved rom-coms of
cinema and takes you on a rollercoaster of romance that isn’t
movie-perfect but jaw-dropping and heart-stopping in unexpected ways.
Don't miss out on The Do-Over and Betting On You from Lynn Painter!
Emilie has the worst Valentine’s Day ever—only to relive it over and
over again. Perfect riotous romantic YA fiction where 50 First Dates
meets Groundhog Day.
After living through a dumpster fire of a Valentine’s Day, Emilie
escapes to her grandmother’s house for some comfort and a consolation
pint of Ben & Jerry’s. She passes out on the couch, but when she
wakes up, she’s back home in her own bed—and it’s Valentine’s Day all
over again. And the next day? Another nightmare V-Day.
Emilie is stuck in some sort of time loop nightmare that she can’t wake
up from as she re-watches her boyfriend, Josh, cheat on her day after
day. Not only that but Emilie can’t get away from the enigmatic Nick,
who she keeps running into—sometimes literally—in unfortunate ways.
How many days can one girl passively watch her life go up in flames?
And when something good starts to come out of these terrible days, what
happens when the universe stops doling out do-overs?
When Sophie finds out right before getting married that she’s been cheated on (again!) it’s time for drastic action. Instead of calling the wedding off, she hires a gorgeous stranger – Max – to interrupt the ceremony and confront her fiancé.
It’s hardly the wedding she’d planned. But Sophie enjoys taking revenge. So, when Max asks if she’ll work with him to help others expose their cheating partners, Sophie agrees.
When they’re hired by a man who’s marrying the girl that once broke Max’s heart, Sophie expects Max to revel in the job. But instead, he seems to be wrestling with his feelings for his ex. And worse than that, Sophie is jealous . . .
The question is: what does a sworn love cynic do when their heart starts to overrule their head?
A stolen latte results in a meet-cute for the ages in this brand-new
edition, with bonus content, of New York Times bestselling author Lynn
Painter's rom-com Accidentally Amy.
Isabella Shay is usually a very honest person. But when she’s running
late for her first day at her dream job and the barista yells for “Amy”
three times with no answer, she does the unthinkable.
Izzy takes that PSL.
It’s the exact drink she ordered and paid for, only way further ahead
in the queue—and she’ll take whatever bad karma is coming for her;
she’s desperate and very late. But when she turns around and runs
directly into the most attractive man she’s ever seen, spilling the
drink all over his made-for-GQ shirt and tie, she ends up having the
ultimate meet-cute. Karma who? Sparks fly and things feel beyond
promising, until he says to her: “See you tomorrow, Amy.”
Izzy reasons she can just straighten things out the next day, no
biggie. Only when she gets to her new office and meets the VP of her
department, it is none other than Blake Phillips—the hottie from
Starbucks. And the man might’ve been charming to “Amy,” but he is an
arrogant grump to Izzy, an arrogant grump who does not find her
explanation funny at all. But day by day, an attraction simmers between
them and they’ll have to find a way to work together without ripping
each other’s heads—or clothes—off.
From the New York Times bestselling author of Better than the Movies,

Hate About You follows a teen girl who unwittingly finds herself at the
centre of a bet while working at a waterpark.
When seventeen-year-old Bailey starts a new job at a hotel waterpark,
she is less than thrilled to see an old acquaintance is one of her

their coworkers—particularly two who keep flirting with each other.

and Bailey is determined to prove him wrong. So they make a bet on
whether or not the cosy pair will actually get together.
Soon enough feelings between Bailey and Charlie begin to develop with
the help of some “fake dating” but Charlie has a secret. A secret that
involves Bailey and another bet Charlie may have made.
Can the two make a real go of things…or has Charlie’s secret doomed
them before they could start?
