[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.

Rhett Lawson, a true cowboy and part owner of the rugged Diamond Creek Ranch, a cattle ranch and lodging haven, is facing financial woes.

However, the plan takes an unexpected twist when Rhett realizes that the same Instagram sensation his sister has invited is none other than Ellie - the two-week fling etched in his memory for over a year. He had no idea that the sweet and sexy woman he met at that bar that summer was actually a global phenomenon: social media influencer Ellis Sutton.

Никол: Мразя го. Мразя, че изобщо има място в живота ми. Да ме изпратят при него за цял месец - това е най-големият ми кошмар. Ала съм принудена да живея под един покрив с човек, който изтръгва всеки мой спомен за сигурност. И в този кошмар усещам как сърцето ми прави най-голямото предателство - започва да го иска. ⸻ Алекс: Да ме мрази дъщерята на бизнес партньора ми? За мен това е забавление. Унизих я пред всички и дори се гордея с това. Но три години по-късно да бъда принуден да я приютя за цял месец в собствените си обятия е по-голямо наказание, отколкото някога съм очаквал. Тя е непокорна, огнена, руши правилата ми. А аз - човекът, който е удавил всичките си чувства в лед и безразличие - виждам как този лед се пропуква пред сините ѝ очи... и това ме кара да я мразя още повече.

When Evelyn and her long-term enemy, star hockey captain Atlas, are forced to work together on a university media project, sparks fly as resisting their attraction becomes a far bigger challenge than their opposing opinions. Standalone in the Wellsfield University Series ***** Evelyn Hayes has hated Atlas Griffin, the golden boy of their university hockey team, since their very first conversation three years ago. To Evelyn, he's the womanizing, arrogant epitome of rich privilege and everything she despises.

Soon, a heated one-night stand leads to an enemies-with-benefits hookup pact. But is either ready to face the consequences when the lines blur and strings start to get attached?
