Sometimes the best lessons aren't learned in class, they're felt in the heart. Riley Hale's life runs on caffeine, chaos, and cupcake batter. At twenty-eight, she's mastered the art of single motherhood, sarcasm, and pretending she's totally fine that her love life has been replaced by late-night cleaning montages and her eight-year-old's existential questions. Then one morning, a frosty stranger in a perfect beige coat walks into The Sweet Spot bakery and straight into Riley's list of "people I will never impress." After one spilled coffee and a mortifying apology later, Riley is convinced she'll never see the woman again. Until the next day, when she meets her daughter's new fifth-grade teacher... Miss Emerson Miller. What follows is a year of accidental flirtations, school-event disasters, and late-night bake-offs that blur the line between enemies, friends, and something sweeter. Because sometimes love doesn't show up when you plan it - it spills all over your shoes and dares you to start over. A slow-burn, small-town romantic comedy about second chances, messy mornings, and discovering that the best lessons aren't always taught in classrooms.

Delia Prescott is a best-selling author hiding behind a pseudonym. To the world, she's the wild-child daughter of a powerful publishing empire wasting away her inheritance. In reality, she's the highest grossing author that saved the family name. Running a thriving bar and chasing inspiration across the world (and across the bar), Delia's determined to live life on her terms, even if it means hiding the truth from everyone she loves. Gabby Andrews has spent years carefully building walls around her heart, trading risk for safety after too many painful cracks to her heart. She's convinced love is a story for other people, choosing to stick within the walls she's built and the emergency department where she works. Until she walks into Delia's bar and meets a woman who makes her wonder if she's been hiding from her own unwritten story and potential happy ending. Gabby feels like a story Delia was always too afraid to write: vibrant, kind, and alarmingly real. Is Delia ready to step into the light, and finally write a story under her real name, and is she prepared to announce to the world the true identity of her pen-name? Is Gabby ready to make the leap and try for love one more time and be her honest self in the process? Will her work schedule cause another rift in her chance of connecting to someone again? Maybe in finding each other, there is a story they never knew was there to write... together.

Sometimes the person you've been waiting on... is the one you've been waiting for. "Maybe being seen isn't about who's looking, it's about who never looks away." Jamie Lawrence never planned to spend her twenties waiting tables for Hollywood's elite-especially not serving her biggest crush, Oscar-winning actress Catherine Lane. But one chaotic night, a paparazzi incident turns a polite routine into a secret connection neither of them saw coming. Now Catherine keeps finding excuses to visit the restaurant alone, and Jamie can't tell if she's imagining the sparks... or if the woman she's been waiting on might just be the one she's been waiting for.

It was supposed to be anonymous. Just some harmless, late-night messeges on a forum. No names. No photos. No real-life complications. She was GoldTrap-mysterious, sharp, and way too good with words. I was BlueInk-awkward, sarcastic, and definitely not looking for anything. But then she made me laugh. Then she made me think. Then... she made me feel things I really shouldn't be feeling for someone I've never met. I'm Quinn. Twenty-four. Screenwriter-in-training. Emotionally a little chaotic and basically there no reason an amazing woman like her would be falling for someone like me. I've played a lot of roles in my life. But never this one. ----------------------------------------------- Late at night, I started writing letters to a stranger on a private forum-just to feel something real. She calls herself BlueInk. She's young, clever, infuriatingly honest... and somehow, she sees right through me. She doesn't know I'm Juliette Delaney-Hollywood's favorite ice queen with a face on every magazine and a life that doesn't belong to me anymore. She doesn't know that when I type, my hands shake. That when I read her replies, I smile. That I'm craving her words more than I've ever craved the spotlight. And I don't know what will happen if she finds out who I am. Because if I tell her the truth, I might lose the one person who loves me for who I really am. Not the icon. Not the actress. Just... me. But if I don't? I'll never get to feel her say my name out loud.
