But when her ex walks away with almost everything she owns, Ellie’s carefully rebuilt world begins to crack. Just as she’s clinging to her last lifeline, planning her first wedding at the idyllic Pennycress Inn, fate throws the biggest complication yet into her path.

Murray. The man who broke her heart. The love she never truly let go.

Murray is back, working as a carpenter at the inn, and determined to ‘clear the air’. As the days tick forwards towards the Pennycress wedding, Ellie must juggle the needs of her clients with new revelations from her old love, and a fresh spark of hope…

Could first love finally become forever love?

Road Trip To The Riviera By Gillian Harvey

When Sarah breaks her leg, her only thought is how on earth she’ll get to the south of France for her beloved son’s wedding. She’s been told not to fly, and the train route involves many changes – not ideal when you can barely walk.

There’s only one person she can turn to. Her son’s father, Hal. The pair were teenage sweethearts when Sarah fell pregnant, and he’s always been in his son’s life. Only his parenting style is more ‘fun uncle’ than serious dad; all the ‘proper parenting’ has been left to Sarah. He’s oblivious. She’s furious.

But she’s out of options. And Hal is happy to drive her, with one proviso: they’re taking the scenic route, in his battered VW camper van.

Now, two people – whose lives have only been intertwined through their child for more than twenty years – are about to find out there is far more of a journey ahead for them than either could possibly anticipate…

Love is in the air at the cat café… Will everyone find their purr-fect match? 

☕🐈☕💘💘💘☕🐈 ☕

Grace adores her job as a barista at the café, but dreams of one day setting up her own matchmaking agency to help pet lovers find true love. 

When Catpurrcino partners with a dating festival for the whole of August it seems like it is meant to be. 

The last thing on Grace’s mind is her own love life. 

Until she is matched with musician Nathan, who is only at the festival so he can perform. 

Grace knows from the very first moment that Nathan is not the man of her dreams. 

But no one is going to take romantic advice from someone who can’t even get through one successful date. So Grace and Nathan make a pact: they will pretend to be smitten with each other until the end of festival. 

The more time Grace and Nathan spend playing the perfect couple, the more Grace wonders if her fake feelings are becoming real… Could Nathan ever feel the same?

Uncover Honeymoon By Jo Watson

When Private Investigator Lizzy Brown is hired to follow a cheating spouse, the last person she expects to run into is Cameron Anderson: the man she dated for a grand total of 6 hours, and the real reason she left the Police Academy all those years ago. Something Lizzy definitely isn’t still bitter about.

Cam, tasked with a money-laundering case, never thought he’d find himself once again squaring off with Lizzy – and most certainly not in a romantic and glamorous Seychelles resort. But when their separate cover stories are put at risk, the pair are soon forced to masquerade as a honeymooning couple to cover their tracks.

Faking a marriage with your ex is bad enough, but when Lizzy and Cam find themselves tangled in a criminal conspiracy bigger than their bitterness, they realise that their relationship lie might be the only thing keeping them alive.

But as old feelings resurface, are they really just playing the part?

Have A Great Summer By Francesca Cocchi

If time is supposed to heal all wounds, Lina Mariano’s broken teenage heart never quite got the message—but 15 sunny, sandy, angsty Jersey Shore summers later, she finds herself unexpectedly facing her old crush, getting a new perspective—and maybe even a hopeful glimpse of the future . . .

Lina Mariano is stuck—in her hometown, in her job, and in the past. And after six years of writing up local weddings as a columnist for a popular lifestyle website, she’s wholeheartedly sick of nuptials. Worse, the next one on her list is none other than Sebastian Nikolaou’s.

Working high school summers with sweet, handsome Sebastian at his mother’s iconic beach restaurant, teenage Lina was totally wrapped up in the way he made her feel—until the night that everything changed. Even so, she’s embarrassed to admit how often she still thinks of him, and now, comparing their present lives is wrenching. It will take a careful look at her younger self, and some wisdom from the best friend who was there for it all, to see that making her dreams come true is up to her alone—whether or not those dreams still include Sebastian . . .

The Lake House By Lori Foster

When Pixie Nolan first came to Bramble, Kentucky, the abandoned and desperate young single mother found hope, healing, and a fresh start. With the loving support of her best friends—Marlow Heddings and her handsome Marine husband, Cort—Pixie is now happily raising her toddler son in a cozy cottage, managing Marlow’s thriving boutique, and designing firefly logo t-shirts that are selling like hotcakes. The past is behind her, and life is good.

She never expected to make an electrifying connection with a summer renter, a retired Navy SEAL with his own complicated past . . .

A rugged warrior with scars both seen and unseen, Brogan Rafferty arrives with an adorable baby girl in tow and settles into the lake house next door. And while he’s a stunning addition to the gorgeous scenery, it’s his caring devotion that captures Pixie’s heart—the way he gently snuggles away the precious infant’s cries, or swoops Pixie’s delighted little boy high in the air with his tattooed, muscular arms.

But it’s no coincidence that Brogan has found Pixie, and his startling revelations make it clear she’s the key to healing old regrets and building new dreams. And when a hostile stranger turns up with shocking accusations against Bramble’s new hometown hero, Pixie must put her own fears and heartbreak away for good—and learn what it truly means to trust.

Too Fast To Fall By Karen Booth

So what if she’s crushing on a race car driver? That doesn’t mean it’s love at first lap.
But maybe it’s love at first lap dog

Yesterday, Piper Murphy was just another dog sitter helping her sister with wedding prep while pretending she’s over her own broken engagement.

Today, she’s the fill-in dog sitter for Formula One driver Emilio Baquero. Brooding, gorgeous driver + naughty, cute Lab? Woof, down boy.

When Emilio offers her a five-week gig as his live-in dog nanny in London, Piper can’t help but say yes. It’s out of her comfort zone, sure, but it’s also a ticket to travel, racing, and caring for a dog she already adores. All while escaping the wedding planning that’s put her failures front and center.

Only being under the same roof means there’s no escaping Emilio’s intensity, or grumpiness. Piper tries to be a sunny presence, but their clashes just fuel the slow-burn tension to something near combustible.

Because falling for your boss is risky when you have a broken heart. Falling for your famous boss and his adorable dog? That’s a crash waiting to happen.

When Dr Grumpy Met Her Sunshine By Amy Blythe

She’s head over heels with temptation!

Admittedly, falling into a colleague’s lap on her first day at a new hospital isn’t a great start! Infuriatingly sunny physiotherapist and disability activist Cam is everything Sasha isn’t but secretly wishes she was. Maybe, then, taking a risk and acting on their magnetic chemistry might not be so terrifying? Dare she hope that Cam wants her—just the way she is?

How To Train Your Billionaire By Kendall Ryan

Accountant Frankie Anderson seems down for the count. Laid off, single, and desperate for a fresh start, she takes an unlikely job as travel companion to billionaire Charles Winthrop—a grandfatherly eccentric with a private jet and a soft spot for strays. The perks? Staying in luxury estates, sun-soaked days in Hawaii, and glamorous nights on the French Riviera. The catch? His nephew.

Hayes Winters is grumpy, guarded, and annoyingly good-looking. Their first encounter—a spat erupting from her all-out battle with a broken vending machine—convinces him he doesn’t want Frankie anywhere near him or his family. He doesn’t trust her motives, and she doesn’t care what he thinks. But somewhere between late-night omelets and lavender fields, their banter turns into something neither of them expected.

And maybe, just maybe, that’s exactly what old Charles had in mind. Because sometimes the best journeys aren’t the ones you plan—they’re the ones that lead you home.

Not Over You Actually By Heidi Stephens

She’s moved on. Absolutely. Definitely. . . Sort of.

Two years post-divorce and flying solo at a family wedding in France, Kate locks eyes with a strikingly handsome man – only to realise it’s Hugh, her ex-husband. The cardigan-wearing, workaholic history professor she left behind has been transformed into a man who is sleek, confident, and maddeningly attractive.

She expected wedding drama, but not this. And when a favour she can’t refuse lands her on a road trip across France and Spain with the newly upgraded Hugh, Kate is forced to confront more than just old memories.

As detours turn into revelations, she has to wonder: is this just a scenic route back to heartbreak, or could revisiting the past lead her somewhere entirely new?

In Love And Revenge By Elle Nicholl

He’s the arrogant billionaire intent on revenge.

She’s the woman who’ll stop at nothing to get justice.

Even if it means getting uncomfortably close to the man she hates.

Rafael Fairfax: devastatingly handsome, notoriously difficult billionaire CEO of Fairfax Guardian. His staff alternately love him and loathe him.

He’s also the brother of my best friend, Dove. I have every reason to despise him after I hear him talking about my father one day. Unfortunately, I need him too.

Because my father is in prison for fraud, and I’m determined to get him released. If I can get close to Rafael by working for his company, I’m confident I can prove his innocence.

It won’t be easy. Rafael is adamant that my father is a crook, and seems personally invested in him staying in prison. But if dealing with Rafael is the price I have to pay for justice, then so be it. He might be cold and grouchy, and glare at me like he hates me. But just sometimes I catch him looking at me and there’s a flicker of something else entirely…

Tempted Hearts By Cissy Mecca

Welcome to Cedar Falls 🌲 

Juliette

I never meant to derail a man like Cole Ford. One lost passport and a spiraling travel disaster later, I’m stranded in Cinque Terre—overwhelmed and completely out of my depth. Then Cole shows up: calm, controlled, infuriatingly handsome. He’s order wrapped in a perfectly pressed shirt, and somehow the only person who makes me feel steady in the middle of my own chaos. I start wanting what I shouldn’t—him. And wanting Cole feels dangerous in a way I can’t even explain.

Cole

I don’t do chaos. And Juliette Porter is chaos with a heartbeat. I live by structure, logic, and The Bachelor Pact—especially the final rule: never fall in love. Flying to Italy to retrieve Juliette was supposed to be simple. But she slips past every defense I’ve built, makes me crave the unpredictable, and tempts me to break the vow I swore I’d never touch.

By the time we return to the familiarity of Cedar Falls, one truth is unavoidable: to keep her, I’ll have to shatter my last unbroken rule—and finally risk my heart.

Old Girls Go Off The Rails By Maddie Please

A one way ticket to misadventure! 🚂🎟️💼

When Lizzie Stevens was eighteen, life took a wrong turn. While her best friends Harriet and Anna went interrailing across Europe, Lizzie stayed behind—shunted into a dusty bank job and a sensible life that never quite got back on track.

Now sixty-four, freshly divorced from terminally dull Freddie and wondering how she ended up here, Lizzie is unexpectedly reunited with the friends who left her behind. This time, she’s not missing the train.

And Lizzie begins to realise it’s never too late to change direction—and that the best adventures are the ones without a timetable.

The Worst Wedding Date By Pippa Grant

He’s a tattooed shirtless bad boy. My best friend’s brother. And the jerk on the other side of my bed.

I didn’t know bridesmaid was code for babysitter for the bride’s brother, but if that’s what my best friend needs of me for her dream wedding to go off without a hitch, that’s what I’ll do.

Even if Theo Monroe has been a pain in my rear since third grade.

Even if he should be responsible enough to not wreak havoc at his sister’s destination wedding.

Even if it means we have to share a hotel room in Hawaii, which might be the final duty that breaks me.

Not only does Theo know exactly how to push my buttons, but he never wears clothes, he’s hiding a litter of kittens in his room, and he keeps showing up with fresh-baked cookies that seemingly come from nowhere.

Also?

I have no idea what’s up with the tension between him and the groom.

Or why he’s so proud of the world’s strangest wedding gift.

Or why I suddenly want to know what makes him tick. The story behind his tattoos. How he can afford to rent a convertible in Hawaii. And if maybe all of that utter frustration and irritation I’ve felt for him for years is suppressed attraction that a good girl like me isn’t supposed to feel for the biggest bad boy of Snaggletooth Creek.

But I do know one thing.

When I find out his biggest secret and the answer to all of my questions, it will change everything.

Wild About You By Jo Lovett

He’s the one that got away…

After the loss of her father, the last thing Flavia expects – or wants to do – is go on the trip of a lifetime her parents had planned together.  

Not least because – it turns out – the other ticket is being taken by Dominic Rock, their devastatingly handsome next-door neighbour, with whom, nine years ago, Flavia shared a hot night of passion. 

It had felt like love. Real, dizzy, once-in-a-lifetime love. But in the intervening years, Flavia has learnt more about this man, things that make him impossible to trust. 

But against the breathtaking landscapes of Cape Town, old sparks may once again reignite. And Flavia must decide whether Dominic is the man who broke her heart – or the one she never truly let go.
