Someone is watching Audrey, and the danger closes in before she can understand why.

About the book
He’ll risk it all to protect her.
Someone is stalking Audrey Young. And she has no idea why.
It’s bad enough that she’s back in Tilikum. But Audrey’s good at making the best of things and her new job at the small-town newspaper is just a way to get back on her feet.
Complicating matters is her landlord and new neighbor, Josiah Haven.
She doesn’t usually go for the big, surly lumberjack type. But there’s something about that broody man. He intimidates her a little, but she kind of likes it.
She could totally handle the mess that is her life, except the strange feeling of being watched is just the beginning. Next thing Audrey knows, she’s a target, and she doesn’t know who’s behind it, or why.
For Josiah Haven, none of that makes her his problem.
She’s just the girl next door. Fine, the frustratingly hot girl next door. But Audrey is all sunshine and her goofy dog isn’t any better. Josiah is too stoic. Too solitary. Too guarded. He doesn’t need a woman in his life, especially one who threatens to crack his heart wide open.
But Josiah is a protector and he can’t let Audrey’s troubles go unanswered, even if he has to risk everything—his life and his heart—to keep her safe.
Author’s Note: a grumpy loner meets his match in a sunshiney dog lover who’s a little down on her luck. And once he falls, he falls HARD. It’s small-town romantic suspense with CK’s signature humor, endearing characters, and heartwarming happily ever after.
Obsession Falls can be read as a stand-alone.

Old love never really leaves.
Talk of the Town
Romance
Our take
Old love never really leaves. It just waits for the right moment to test you again. In Talk of the Town, Neil returns to his small hometown determined to repair the life he abandoned, while Maddie protects the stability she built without him. Their shared past, their daughter, and a lingering attraction force them to confront trust, forgiveness, and whether second chances can truly last.

About the book
An emotional, swoony, enemies to lovers, second chance romance featuring an arrogant, professional hockey player and the woman he left behind.
Everyone deserves a second chance…
Twelve years ago, Neil Pettit chose his dreams of becoming a professional hockey player over a life with Maddie Montesano and their daughter. Now he’s back in his hometown of Shady Grove, Pennsylvania, to fix his mistakes, finally be the father his daughter deserves and win back the only woman he’s ever loved.
Twelve years ago, Maddie didn’t think she could live without Neil in her life but she’s wiser now. Stronger. And the love she once had for him is long gone. She’s built a good life for herself and her daughter and the last thing she needs is Neil sauntering into town and stirring things up.
But Neil is no longer the boy who left her behind. And the more time Maddie spends with him, the more she realizes how much he’s changed. How good he is for their daughter. And how the crazy attraction she’s spent years ignoring still sizzles between them.
The temptation to give in and have Neil again is strong, especially when he offers that dream of forever she’d once coveted. But he’d already abandoned them once, and in order for them to be a family, she’s going to have to be brave enough to trust him again.
And love him enough to forgive him.
Talk of the Town is a small-town contemporary romance filled with heat, high emotion and a hard-earned happy-ever-after. It’s book one in the In Shady Grove series.

About the book
That marriage pact I made with my grumpy, off-limits best friend. That was totally a joke...Right?
It was a heat-of-the-moment agreement scribbled onto the back of a crinkled gas station receipt nine years ago.
"If neither of us are married by age 30, we'll marry each other."
Haha! So funny!
Cash moved to a city 500 miles away. Building his billion-dollar empire. Making a name for himself.
Me? I stayed in our gossipy hometown. Working a simple job. Living a simple life.
And we never discussed the marriage pact again.
But I just turned the big three-oh.
And Cash showed up at my door, in the middle of a freaking rainstorm.
Tall, muscled and soaking wet.
With a birthday cake in his hand and a daring smirk that says he means business.
Holy plot twist! Didn't see that coming!
Now the small town rumor mill is in overdrive.
Cash is dissolving my defences with those sexy half-smiles he saves just for me.
And my brain is exploding with what ifs...
What if we give this a shot?
What if we're crazy enough to try?
What if we're good together?
We've always been 'just friends'. We're experts at playing it safe.
But his skin on my skin leaves me reeling. His oh-so-fiery kisses melt my excuses.
I know our decade-plus friendship is on the line. But I'm aching to see Cash's wild side.
The Wild Side is a steamy, laugh-out-loud, friends-to-lovers small town romance. It is set in small town Iowa and is book one in the Wild Westbrooks Series.

About the book
I fled my hometown seven years ago. I never planned to come back. I never planned to give up my city life for a small town. And I definitely never planned to fall for another man.
Henry
Tripp Lake, the place I love the most. Working at a cat café on Main Street gives me a chance to get some deserving cats their forever homes.
But when a blast from the past walks into my café, I’m not sure what to feel. Alex was always hot and popular in high school – and straight.
So it’s a shock when he keeps accepting my invitations to hang out. I don’t think I’m imagining the spark between us, but is Alex actually interested in me, or am I letting this straight boy break my heart?
Alex
Tripp Lake, the place I hate the most. I’m only here because of my father’s heart attack. But the second I return home, I remember all the reasons I ran away.
My parents are overbearing. This town is small and boring. And I want nothing more than to flee back to my new life in San Francisco - a life that doesn't come packed with any surprising new feelings about a guy I went to high school with.
Henry is a ray of sunshine amid this bleak journey home. But I've never been interested in a guy before. When a relaxing hike results in my first timid kiss with another man, I start questioning a lot more than just my decision to leave Tripp Lake. Is Henry worth staying in this crappy town for?
Stray Awakening is a small-town MM romance with first-time gay experiences, a sweet ray of sunshine winning over a jaded grumpy, spicy open-door scenes, and, of course, lots of cats. Go to linktr.ee/faraywrites for CWs.

Our take
Death is already part of the performance in Seance, a paranormal romance where hidden power and rising desire turn every lie into a risk.

Choose your retailer
About the book
She talks to the dead for money. He kills the living for free.
Vivian Smith has built a comfortable life on fake séances and theatrical lies, keeping her real necromancy carefully hidden.
One spirit refuses to be ignored, shattering her barriers with visions of an ancient evil called the Architect—and now every supernatural force in London wants a piece of her power.
Dominic Ashworth, her Midnight Society assigned bodyguard, is immortal, lethal, and entirely too good at making her forget why falling for a man forged from shadows is a terrible idea.
He's supposed to keep her alive. Instead, he's making her want to live—really live—for the first time in years.
The threats escalate. The chemistry burns hotter. Vivian's carefully constructed walls are crumbling, both around her heart and her power. Someone needs to stop the Architect before he completes his resurrection. Someone needs to survive long enough to do it.
Can love bloom in the space between life and death? Or will embracing her true power cost Vivian everything—including the immortal shadow wielder who's claimed her heart? Pick up this haunting paranormal romance where the deadliest danger isn't what waits in the shadows, but who.

The Plus One
Romance · RomCom
Our take
What begins as mutual irritation sharpens into something far more vulnerable when two childhood enemies agree to survive a wedding season together. In The Plus One, Indira and Jude become fake dates while each is carrying private strain, and the closeness they once resisted starts to feel like the one steady thing in the middle of emotional chaos. This romantic comedy pairs forced proximity, old resentment, and real tenderness with a deeper undercurrent of healing.

About the book
"Mazey Eddings’s writing is authentic, emotional, and intensely romantic! To me, it’s like a Taylor Swift song in book form." - New York Times bestselling author Ali Hazelwood
What starts out as a fake wedding date turns into something these childhood enemies never expected in The Plus One, a sparkling romantic comedy by Mazey Eddings.
She’s not looking to fix him. She’s looking to love him, if he’ll let her in.
Some facts are indisputable. The sun rises in the east, sets in the west. Gravity exists. Indira doesn’t like Jude. Jude doesn’t like Indira. But what happens when these childhood enemies find the only thing they can rely on is each other?
On paper, Indira has everything together. An amazing job, a boyfriend, and a car. What more could a late twenty-something ask for? But when she walks in on her boyfriend in an amorous embrace with a stranger, that perfect on paper image goes up in flames.
Jude has nothing together. A doctor that’s spent the last three years traveling the world to treat emergencies and humanitarian crises, a quick trip home for his best friend’s wedding has him struggling to readjust.
Thrust into an elaborate (and ridiculously drawn out) wedding event that’s stressing Jude beyond belief and has Indira seeing her ex and his new girlfriend far more frequently than any human should endure, the duo strike a bargain to be each other’s fake dates to this wedding from hell. The only problem is, their forced proximity and fake displays of affection are starting to feel a bit…real, and both are left grappling with the idea that a situation that couldn’t be worse, is made a little better with the other around.

About the book
USA TODAY BESTSELLER
For fans of Tessa Bailey and Mia Sosa, highly acclaimed author Letizia Lorini brings a deliciously sexy, poignant, and laugh-out-loud funny rom-com set in the culinary world.
One year ago, Amelie had it all. Nearly engaged to her high school sweetheart, close to her childhood best friend, and cooking at her dad’s restaurant, her life was exactly what she’d ordered. Until Ian, an opinionated wedding-hater, sat beside her at a wedding and proved she might like something off-menu.
Now, Amelie is unemployed, single, and taking a break from her best friend. On top of it all, she’s lost all contact with Ian. When she visits his hometown to teach at a weeklong cooking conference, she hopes for a fateful meet-cute. But their reunion is explosive when Amelie discovers Ian is the son of her father’s business rival.
Even bigger fiasco? He only wants to be her friend. Amelie has one week to change his mind, and if the truth of why her whole life fell apart remains hidden, their love story might even end with a wedding.

Our take
A career-defining opportunity gets complicated fast when a sunshine designer is forced to win over the one client most likely to derail her plans. In The Sixty/Forty Rule, Jude’s chance at a long-awaited promotion depends on Theo, a sharp-edged restaurateur who frustrates her as much as he attracts her.

About the book
Jude Holland has slogged it for years at her commercial design firm for a chance to land a coveted job designing the city's trendiest restaurants and nightclubs. As an assistant, she's done her fair share of grunt work and covering the asses of less-than-competant lead designers, all in the name of one day joining their rank.
When a spot suddenly opens up on the firm's design team, Jude's boss makes her a deal: design Theo Jordan—the firm’s biggest client—a new, breathtaking restaurant, convince him to renew his contract with the company, and the job is hers.
If only he'd play along.
Theo is infamous for three very specific things: he's a hot-shot young chef-turned-restaurateur, a thorn-in-your-side client, and the kind of attractive that makes you wonder which kind of psychedelics the great maker was taking when he created him. Not that Jude notices. She's too busy sticking to the plan, and it helps that he's a total ass, anyway.
That is, until a steamy business trip leads to a very different deal between the two, who suddenly can't seem to keep their hands off each other. Sixty percent of the time, they’d indulge those funny, fluttering feelings that seem to manifest whenever they’re together. The rest of the time? They’d be nothing but professional.
It doesn’t take Theo long to realize that’s easier said than done. But with a restaurant launch and Jude's dream promotion on the line—not to mention a workplace rival hell-bent on ruining her career—Theo only has a handful of weeks to convince Jude to make that sixty percent full time.
The Sixty/Forty Rule is a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers workplace romance between a sunshine commercial designer and her grumpy client. It has a healthy dose of spice and a happily ever after. It is the first book in the Sunset Landing series of standalone reads.
