Atlas Petrakis was never meant to run an empire. At twenty-six, he was famous for something else entirely-winning Formula One championships, crashing luxury cars, and making headlines for all the wrong reasons. Responsibility was never part of the plan. But his Grandfather Eros Petrakis forced him to become the new CEO of Petrakis Shipping Company, and assigns someone to train him. Jane West. Brilliant. Sharp. Unimpressed. Jane doesn't care about his fame, his money, or the women who chase him. To her, Atlas is simply a reckless billionaire who needs discipline. And she plans to fix him. The problem? Atlas Petrakis has never liked being told what to do. What begins as a battle of egos inside a glass office turns into something far more dangerous-flirtation, tension, and a slow-burning attraction neither of them wants to admit. Jane refuses to fall for him. Atlas refuses to give up the chase. But in a world of power, business deals, and family expectations, the biggest risk might not be losing the company- It might be losing their hearts.

[2024 WATTYS SHORTLISTED] [18+] In the picturesque lakeside town, the calm waters mask the storm within Juniper Jenkins' heart. Betrayed and broken by her cheating boyfriend, she flees to the sanctuary of her friend's lakeside house, to work remotely for the summer. What she doesn't expect? Running into Wells Hansen-her rival from the Seattle Sun Times-of all people. And of all places, he's running the only coffee shop in town with decent Wi-Fi. She's sworn off men for the summer-pinky-promised no boys-with her two best friends. So there's no way she's breaking that pact. Not after what just happened. But fate doesn't care about pacts, and Juniper keeps bumping into Wells no matter how hard she tries not to. She resents him, and the feeling seems mutual. At least, that's what she believes.

Isabelle Remington wants absolutely nothing to do with the man who broke her heart and then cruelly tormented her months after they ended their relationship. In fact, it appears to her that he hasn't changed a bit from the troubled boy she knew; still short tempered, impulsive, aggressive with a tendency to get into fights. He's bad news and she wants no part of it. Adrian Adler comes face to face with the woman he lost nearly twelve years ago when she is hired as the PR manager for his rugby team. A woman he still loves and yearns for with every breath. The problem? The scandal he's facing is the career ending kind, and certainly not the best impression to make upon the love of his life. If only she hadn't waltzed back into his life under such unfortunate circumstances, he may have been able to convince her that he wasn't the same asshole who had taken her for granted. But having lived more than a decade without her, he can't just let her walk away without fighting tooth and nail to convince her to give him a second chance. Her guard is up and she won't make it easy. But he's made a living off of breaking through defences.

Romance Tropes: forced proximity/friends to lovers. When my mom sets me up on a blind date, I go to great measures to sabotage it. That is, until I meet the girl and we immediately hit it off. At least I thought we hit it off, but when she gives me the wrong phone number, I realize it might have been a one-sided thing. Lake Hope is a small town, though, and she keeps popping up, making it nearly impossible to forget that raspy voice and the quirky way she refuses to swear and how unbelievably beautiful she is. When I find myself in need of a roommate, she practically begs me to move in. With one condition, of course: a list full of rules outlining that we are only roommates. The platonic kind. Not the kind where we slip into each other's rooms at night. Except she wears the teensiest pajamas around the apartment. And she insists on cooking weekly Pinterest meals together. And she somehow weaseled her way into my friend group, and every other area of my life. And now I'm absolutely, positively screwed because she just announced she's about to go on a date...with someone who is most definitely not me. [This is BOOK FIVE of the WITH YOU series, a small town romance series set in Minnesota about the lives of the dysfunctional, blended Anderson family - with an interwoven mystery built into the background that spans the entirety of the series.]
