When my parents suggested I joined an after school activity, the book club was the obvious choice. And I'm so glad I did! Not only I met my best friend there, but also, she was the one who introduced me and Jordan. And, yes, I know what you're thinking: "A good girl and a bad boy? That's such a cliché!" But, please, hear me out: Nothing is always quite as it seems, and, before I knew it, I ended up involved in a struggle larger than I'd ever imagined. In fact, that was what ultimately led me to take a stand in the war of good versus evil. But, I'm getting way ahead of myself. Let me tell you the story from the very beginning.

Saving a bakery was never part of Hollywood's redemption arc - until her. Alexia MacKenzie has two goals: keep her late grandparents' beloved bakery alive... and avoid getting starstruck by the sudden invasion of celebrities in her sleepy town. But when a bestselling novel gets adapted into a TV series and filming kicks off just down the street, business booms - and so does her annoyance. Because Hollywood's reigning bad boy, Travis Crane, has decided her bakery is his personal hideout from the flashing cameras and screaming fans. Travis is everything Alexia doesn't have time for - charming, arrogant, and entirely too handsome for someone who can't tell a sourdough from a sponge cake. But when she sees an opportunity to use his fame to save the bakery, a deliciously risky deal is struck: he helps her bring attention to her shop, and she'll let him hang around pretending to be "normal" for a while. Between icing mishaps, late-night baking sessions, and an alarming number of flour fights, Alexia realises Travis isn't the shallow tabloid headline she thought he was. But with his career (and carefully crafted new image) on the line, Travis has a choice to make: stay true to his heart... or stick to the script.

Asra is a vampire who's been running her bookshop cafe for years, her most prized achievement in her eternal life. She was perfectly happy running her shop alone-- until Ivory walked in that fateful day. It was three years ago, just as autumn was finally settling in, and not only had Ivory just moved into York, but also into Asra's heart. She knew her order by heart: A pumpkin spice latte and a new horror book, with an hour to settle down in the shop's leather couch to read. But Asra knew that they would always stay this way, customer and server, until one day in October, Ivory asks that instead of Asra making pumpkin spice lattes for her, she buys one for Asra. Though Asra's daydreams have finally come true, she has yet to reveal her true nature to Ivory-- That she's a creature of the night, much like the ones Ivory reads about. She fears that Ivory will treat her like the monsters she reads about instead of the sweet, pacifist girl she really is. Will the two finally blossom into something more? Or will their budding relationship freeze over like a late autumn evening? Contains suggestive dialogue and scenes, but no explicit scenes

A changeling with a secret. A princess locked in a tower. A knight intent on rescuing her. This isn't the fairytale you've heard before. Aster Lemorque is a girl of many faces. She comes from a long line of changelings, distrusted by the common folk of Belforet as evil fairy shapeshifters. Her family run the Maison du Lemorque, a decoy service that provides a changeling who can take the place of someone who would rather be elsewhere - for a hefty fee, of course. Aster is shocked when Princess Adaliza of Belforet asks for her help. The king has ordered that Adaliza, his sole heir, should be locked up in a tower in the depths of the forest to keep her safe from the oncoming plague - an order that the headstrong princess has no intention of following. They require a changeling to take Adaliza's place in the tower, and Aster is assigned the job. Everything is going to plan until a young knight climbs the tower to rescue the princess and Aster finds herself caught in a conundrum. She has to find the real Adaliza in time for the princess to marry the knight and ascend the throne. And she definitely, unquestionably, categorically shouldn't fall in love with Sir Finton Prest herself ...
