When Isola washes ashore in a forgotten fishing town, half-dead and desperate to disappear, she swears she'll never let anyone discover what she truly is-a mermaid born of salt and secrets. But the ocean isn't the only thing that calls to her. Three brothers find her tangled in their nets: Lachlan, the stoic oldest who carries storms in his silence. Finn, the healer with eyes like tidepools and a heart too soft for the sea. And Ronan, all fire and suspicion, whose touch feels like both a warning and home. They offer her refuge. She offers them lies. Because somewhere out there, the man who destroyed her family still hunts her-the man she once loved, whose brother she killed to survive. Now, in a town where the ocean never sleeps and secrets rise like waves, Isola must choose: Keep hiding beneath the tide... or let herself be caught between them?

I thought knights in shining armour were for fairytales... until one hockey player made me believe otherwise. • • • She was promised to someone else. He promised himself he'd never cross the line. Madden knows better than to want the coach's daughter - especially when she's engaged to another man, polished and charming, the kind everyone admires. But he also knows when something isn't right. And he sees what she can't: the subtle control, the quiet manipulations, the too tight smile. So he becomes her safe place. Her anchor. No demands. No expectations. Just quiet, steady devotion. Selena never expected freedom to feel this gentle... or love to feel this patient. She thought she had to survive alone. She thought desire always came with risk. But with Madden, safety and passion aren't opposites - they're inseparable. But devotion has a way of becoming something sacred - especially when it's built on trust, not temptation.

They needed a Sloane on the ice, they just never expected that she would be the one to fill the skates- and she never expected her brothers best friend to start paying a little too much attention. • • • I was a Sloane, but I wasn't the one anyone ever looked at. Never supposed to carry my father's legacy. Never supposed to want the ice the way I do. My father calls me his ice princess. Graceful. Elegant. Temporary. Hockey was never meant to be mine. But when my twin brother, Sebastian, is handed the opportunity of a lifetime and chooses to walk away - I'm given a choice no one would ever offer me willingly. Take his place. Wear his jersey. Become him. One season. One secret. Under the helmet, I'm invisible. Padding hides the curves. Silence hides the truth. As long as I never take the helmet off, never step into the locker room, never let anyone look too closely - I can play. And I can play hard. I just never expected his best friend to start paying me the attention no one else ever has.

Jane Caughill: Not a nobody, definitely not a somebody. From a young age Jane knew she was different. She could tell you how many boats were on Lake Mead or a random fact about giraffes if she wanted to. But the one question she can't answer is what she's going to do after college. Being undeniably smart had its pros: an early graduation and a bright future in the medical field. Though, it also had its cons: the constant nagging and reliance everybody had on her. But no matter what, she always found herself helping them. Here's the plan so far: graduate, land a high-paying job in the medical field, live a happy life, the end. But ever since Jane had stepped into that bakery back home as a child, she'd been hooked on the craft. But she's strapped for cash and the pre-med track sounds a whole lot more financially promising. All she needed to do for the next 3 years was keep her head down and work off her pending college loans. The last thing she thought she'd be doing was tutoring some jock. • • • • • • • • Aiden Parker: Definitely not a nobody, and most definitely a somebody. As a three year starter for one of the most prolific college hockey teams in the country he has it all going for him. The looks, the talent, the charm. But when it comes to the classroom he's quite literally failing. With the team nearing playoffs and a sweet chance at the title, Aiden needs to find a way to boost his grades or risk riding the bench. What he wasn't expecting was to be tutored by some chick who could give Einstein a run for his money. She could be a bit shy at times, a bit lost in her thoughts too, but she's exactly what he needs to keep his spot on the team. The two of them strike a deal: she tutors him, he pays her, and that's that. Developing feelings wasn't a part of the deal. But as his feelings fail to dissipate, he begins to realize that maybe winning a championship won't be the sweetest victory after all. Winning the girl is.

From the writer of Sweet Spot, comes the sequel of two familiar characters you already saw coming. Harper Davis has many titles: marketing connoisseur, almost-lawyer, disappointment to parents, and most importantly: liar. Big. Fat. Liar. But what else is a girl supposed to do when her overachieving parents ask her if she's in a relationship? It's bad enough they think she's incompetent, but single at the age of 31? Is there a cliff to jump off around here? And thanks to her big, fat, lying skills, Mr. and Mrs. Davis are flying into town to meet Harper's alleged boyfriend. The non-existent one. The "I'm about to be caught in the act" one. The "it was nice knowing you guys" one. Enter Sawyer James. He also has many titles: douchebag, womanizer, know-it-all, and just about any colourful insult in the book. The one title Harper didn't expect him to have? Boyfriend. Fake boyfriend. After years of working in vicinity and being known for their competitive nature, Harper never thought she would agree to fake-date the office hunk. But she's short on time and options and she can (frustratingly) admit that no one could play this part better than her work enemy. The "he probably sucks in bed" enemy. The "okay fine that's a lie" enemy. They say never to mix business and pleasure, but it doesn't count if it's pretend...right? *A hilarious reverse grumpy x sunshine, office romance, and fake dating rom-com.

He bends down and I think he's about to whisper in my ear but then his soft lips land on my cheek and stay there for a little longer than I'd expected. A shiver runs through me and I press my thighs together. I catch the side of his mouth lift; he knows what he's doing. That look on his face makes my knees weak and he pushed his mouth close to my ear. I can feel the slight stubble on his face tickle my jaw. "That." I turn my head to question him but he continues in a much more seductive voice. "That's the face you do when you want me to kiss you." I pull in a sharp intake of breath and feel him chuckle against my skin while he drags his lips down my jaw. When he pulls away and sits at his desk I'm left standing like I've just been slapped. His face however has the biggest smile I've ever seen.
