Luna Sorzano has it all-a six-figure cybersecurity career, a stunning home in San Antonio, Texas, a loyal Cane Corso named Ghost, and the technical skills to hack her way out of any problem. Except one: her sweet but relentless mother's obsession with seeing her married. In a moment of desperation during yet another "when are you settling down?" phone call, Luna does the unthinkable. She hacks into the Bexar County marriage database and creates a fake marriage license, choosing the name "Emilio Rossi" simply because it sounds sophisticated and conveniently distant. The system auto-fills the rest-date of birth, occupation, address. She figures she'll deal with the imaginary husband's "business trips" indefinitely. There's just one problem: the database didn't pull a random Emilio Rossi. It pulled the Emilio Rossi-her enigmatic, absurdly wealthy, and frustratingly attractive boss. The billionaire tech mogul who built the very security systems Luna now maintains. When Emilio's equally meddling Italian mother visits his office and somehow discovers a marriage certificate bearing her son's name, both families explode with joy. Suddenly, Luna's simple lie spirals into an elaborate charade involving family dinners, probing questions, and two meddling mothers who are determined to see their "married children" actually act like a couple. Now Luna must navigate the impossible: working for the man she's "married" to, dodging her mother's increasingly specific questions about grandchildren, and worst of all-pretending to be in love with a man who's annoyingly perfect, frustratingly perceptive, and starting to look at her like maybe this arranged-by-accident marriage isn't such a bad idea after all. A romantic comedy about fake marriages, real feelings, and what happens when your perfectly constructed lie becomes the truth you didn't know you wanted.

Let the hunt begin... Charlotte Whitmore wants a husband, and she has just the candidate in mind: Dominic Westbrook. Trouble is, the infuriating man insists on seeing her as the impish girl she once was-even as every other gentleman in London has taken notice of her womanly charms. When her beauty lands her in danger, it's Dominic who comes to the rescue...only to announce his affections are not of the romantic variety! Dominic saw enough sorrow in his parents' union to know he wants nothing to do with marriage-which is exactly what he'll be trapped into if he acts on his desire for the irksome siren. And then Charlotte does what Dominic least expects: she gives up on him! As feigned indifference gives way, blistering passion burns at last. But just before the pair can give in to their hard-won bliss, an enemy with unfinished business lurks, threatening to destroy them both.

Lone Pine, Texas, 1885. When Lena Morrison steps off the dusty stagecoach with nothing but a worn satchel and a heart full of hope, she believes she's arrived to marry Jake Hartwell-the man who promised her a home, a future, and a fresh start. But fate delivers a cruel twist: Jake is dead. In his place stands Nathan Hartwell-Jake's rugged, guarded brother who never expected a stranger to arrive claiming to be his brother's bride. Out of duty, not desire, Nathan offers Lena a name, a roof, and a place on his ranch. What begins as a marriage of necessity slowly grows into something neither of them expected. Through early hardships, simmering glances, and a town quick to judge, Lena and Nathan must learn what it means to build not just a life together, but a love that lasts. But when secrets rise and family loyalties are tested, they'll have to choose: cling to the past, or risk everything for a future forged in trust and tenderness. A heartwarming and sensual historical romance about second chances, unexpected love, and the strength found in the unlikeliest partnerships.

Maggie Lane didn't plan to start over-especially not in a sleepy mountain town where the biggest excitement is the Friday night rodeo and gossip spreads faster than wildfire. But when her picture-perfect life in the city crumbled and her charming fiancé revealed a much darker side, Maggie packed her bags, changed her number, and ran. Now hiding behind a new last name and living in the guest house of a reclusive single dad, she's trying to rebuild her life in peace. Her new job as nanny to a spunky five-year-old girl seems like the fresh start she desperately needs-until quiet mornings and home-cooked dinners start to feel dangerously like home. And her brooding boss, Dawson Rhodes? He's the last man she should fall for. Stoic. Grumpy. Protective. And far too observant for Maggie's comfort. But Dawson has shadows of his own-raising his daughter alone after a devastating betrayal, he's sworn off relationships. Until Maggie crashes into his life with her stubborn streak, soft heart, and the kind of fire he thought he'd forgotten how to feel. Just as Maggie begins to let her guard down, strange things start happening: an unmarked package left on the porch, a familiar car spotted in town, and late-night calls from a blocked number. It's not just paranoia. Her ex is still out there. Watching. Waiting. Now, Maggie has to decide if she's ready to stop running-and whether this quiet little town and the cowboy who's captured her heart are worth fighting for.
