"Is being ridiculously tall a requirement for dairy farmers?" I blurt out.
"Not exactly," Noah says, looking me over. I feel a bit self-conscious under his intense gaze. "Is it a habit for kitchen princesses to spray milk in their own face?"
"Definitely not," I reply quickly. "And I'm not a kitchen princess."

Finn Cooper thought he had his life perfectly planned-a loving boyfriend, a promising career in hospitality management, and the dream of becoming a chef just within reach. But when his estranged father dies, Finn is forced to return to Forestville, the small, conservative village he left behind years ago.
Faced with the crumbling remains of his father's farm, Finn discovers he's not the only heir. Noah Moreno-the infuriatingly smug, yet maddeningly attractive owner of a local dairy empire-has a claim to the property too. With nowhere else to stay, Finn is reluctantly taken in by the Moreno family. Forced to work alongside Noah to prepare the farm for sale, their constant bickering ignites a fiery tension Finn can't ignore-and one that might not just be anger.
As Finn uncovers long-buried secrets about his father and battles the unexpected chemistry with Noah, he must confront his past, navigate his heart, and decide if his future lies in the chaos of Forestville-or somewhere he never imagined.
A heartwarming, slow-burn romance packed with culinary dreams, tangled emotions, and the beauty of finding yourself where you least expect it. Perfect for fans of Red, White & Royal Blue and The Hating Game.
Azaziah Azar is not like the pirates he shares a ship with. He never would have led them to the fabled Golden Siren if he'd known it really existed. He wishes he hadn't.
Az and the siren are both trapped on board The Merry, captained by the unstable Rowan Slade and forced to work for him. At first, they want nothing to do with each other. To Az, the siren is an unfeeling, dangerous predator. To the siren, Az is just another pirate out to make a pretty penny off his shining golden scales. But as Slade's plans for the siren escalate, Az realises that maybe sirens and humans aren't so different after all.
When feelings start to develop between the two, and Slade's work causes the siren's stress to reach its peak, Az will learn that what is right isn't always what is easy.
