When a high school art teacher catches a student vandalizing another student's hair, she never expects his hot uncle to storm into her classroom-or ask her to dinner. Janet Scannell has seen it all in her twelve years of teaching at Harborfields Junior and Senior High. But when Caleb Foster dumps purple paint on the mean girl's hair and his uncle Mason shows up ready to defend him, she's in for way more than a typical detention supervision. As Janet and Mason navigate their unexpected attraction, a darker mystery unfolds. Items are disappearing around school: tools from shop class, equipment from the science lab, and food from the cafeteria. When the principal threatens to call the police-which Janet and Mason both think is a complete overreaction-they decide to work together to catch the thief themselves. What they discover will break their hearts and change their lives forever. Because sometimes the best families are the ones you never see coming, and sometimes love shows up in detention with drywall dust in its hair. A standalone romantic comedy with heart, humor, and a found family that will make you believe in second chances.

When April Fontana met Connor Davis at fifteen, she never imagined how deeply he'd shape her story. By eighteen, she said goodbye-convinced their chapter had ended for good. But fate has a way of rewriting endings. Over the next decade, their paths keep colliding, each encounter pulling them closer as life, loss, and love intertwine. Maybe her mother was right-some people are simply meant to find their way back.

Sorcha MacAlasdair, daughter of a proud Laird, with her quiet beauty and untameable nature, is like the heather that grows across the hills of her Highland home-nurturing, steadfast, and resilient. Betrothed in childhood, her marriage was forged in blood and duty, meant to bind two clans together against a common enemy. She asked for nothing and expected even less from the unwanted union-though in the quiet corners of her heart, she hoped it might become more than obligation. That, perhaps, love might grow from the bond her clan's future depended on. Calum MacRae resented the duty forced upon him. He saw Sorcha as a burden-a symbol of obligation, not choice. His heart belonged to Elspeth-a childhood friend whose charm and ambition shaped the future he believed he deserved. Though his Laird father warned him of sacred vows and the cost of defiance, Calum chose betrayal. He turned his back on Sorcha-insisting she remain a wife in name only. But war changes everything. Calum returns to a home scarred by conflict. A clan whose loyalties have wholly turned away from him. And a future far different from the one he abandoned her for. The woman he ignored-his inconvenient bride-has become the heart of the keep. Sorcha, the heather he once overlooked-wild, rooted, and impossible to break-is now the only thing standing between him and ruin.

To most people, my husband is Viper. VP of the Devil's Rejects MC, hard, uncompromising, and completely committed to the club and his brothers.

He promises he will give up everything to win me back, but promises are cheap and his aren't worth much. When we discover our enemies are still alive and planning to strike out again, however, I might not have any choice but to put my life in the hands of the man who's already let me down once.
