Susie Wilson was a woman who knew things: That she needed a fresh start; that she needed a new job, and that she loved Shakespeare, her cat, and writing romantic hero filled Chick-lit. She also knew those heroes really only existed in the pages of her books. Tom Hiddleston knew he would rather be in sunny San Diego than drizzle filled London. He knew that it was going to be a long damp summer filled with long days of learning lines and equally long nights of frozen meals for one.... One night away from reality for both was about to show them, they really didn't know very much at all......

He'd been alone for so long. At first, by choice, then by circumstance. Now Loki wanted company.... more than that, he wanted love. Bridget lived alone. By choice. She'd seen the world and decided it wasn't for her. She missed nothing and no one. Well, that's what she told herself. Except for him. The Singer. One evening, out walking, she'd his distant voice. Singing. Drawing her in. Turning her heart inside out. What would it take to bring them together? Only time and two lonely souls desperate for love would find out....

Beth Williams was independent and feisty, according to her mother. To her brother? Pig headed and stubborn. She'd never really cared that much about either opinion. She was her own woman, loving and living, beholden to nobody. Until she wasn't. Suddenly, a man walked into her life, which made her question everything. All she cared about now was how she looked to him. The gaze of those ocean eyes, seeing her for the woman she really was.....

They say its always darkest before the dawn, and there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Lia - Ophelia to the tax man and her mother - disagrees. Dawn doesn't always come with bright sunshine, mostly it's cold and rainy and disappointing. Oh and that light in the tunnel? Headlights of an oncoming train.She ploughs on regardless though, daring life to prove her wrong. Tom should love his life: Theatre, TV, Movies, fame, fortune, a bevvy of beautiful women... what more could a handsome man like him ask for? A spark of trust. a grain of truth, a guiding light. A love. When the woman with no expectations meets the man with too many, will they learn to find a balance? Will Tom show Lia that looking into that light doesn't always get you burned.....

As she finds out though, a happy ever after is rarely easily won and this fight will test her resolve and their blossoming life together to it's very limits.

She knew who he was. She knew what he was. She knew she shouldn't get involved. So why was it so damned hard to stay away? He knew who she was. He knew what she was. He knew he wanted her more than anything. So why was it so damned hard to get near her. They can resist everything - except temptation.....

Callie Anderson moved to rural Essex to start a new life. She had been a high flying financier. She'd done the city thing. She'd had the car and the house and the holidays - and the collapse. Her bank balance might have been healthy, but that was the only thing. Now, a few months in, she was feeling almost chilled,almost calm. Her peace and quiet, and her heart however, were about to be challenged in the most unusual way.

Amy had heard good things about Laufeyson &Co. The working conditions were excellent. employees well.rewarded and no-one ever seemed to leave. So when the chance comes to join them as the PA to Mr Laufeyson himself, Amy jumped at the chance. Little did she realise this would put a whole new spin on the term 'job for life' ....
