A Lesson in Scandal
Romance · Historical Romance · Regency Romance
Our take
Safety and freedom collide when a young woman fleeing exploitation takes refuge in the household of a guarded doctor already circling a deadly mystery. In A Lesson in Scandal, Sofia Moorland’s herbal knowledge earns her a place beside Reid Gentry, but suspicion, proximity, and a marriage of convenience pull them into something far riskier than either expected. A slow-burn historical romance threaded with danger and scandal.

About the book
A slow-burn historical romance featuring a runaway herbalist, a brooding doctor, a deadly mystery, and a marriage of convenience that was never meant to turn into love.
Having read a secret letter, Sofia Moorland knows of her stepmother’s wicked plan to auction her virtue. With danger looming, escape is her only option. Armed with a knowledge of herbalism, she seeks refuge working for the brooding doctor, Mr Gentry. But freedom comes at a price—and Mr Gentry soon holds more than her fate in his skilled hands.
Reid Gentry never planned to hire a woman, yet Miss Moorland’s sharp wit and hidden passion prove an irresistible temptation. With patients dying under suspicious circumstances, Reid is determined to uncover the truth. But the more he delves into the mystery, the more he becomes ensnared in a web of secrets and scandal. And as the danger grows, so does his desire for Sofia.

What happens when your secret crush isn’t so secret anymore?
I’ve had feelings for Eve Roberts for as long as I can remember, but because she also happens to be the twin sister of my best friend, Eric, I’ve never acted on my feelings and long ago resigned myself to keeping my crush under wraps.
But after a terrible falling-out with Eric involving a failed restaurant venture and plenty of blame on both sides, I’m back in Port Snow without my best friend and without any direction. But can you guess who’s here? Eve. And my attraction to her is as strong as ever.
As old feelings rush back, Eve and I find ourselves pulled together, whether we like it or not. Lines are crossed, secrets are kept, and we soon discover that the difference between love and friendship may not be so black and white, after all.
Everyone wants that secret crush to love them back…but will I be ready when she does?

The Unsuitable is the kind of gothic story that smiles politely right before everything goes deeply off the rails.
The Unsuitable
Horror · Romance · Thriller
Our take
The Unsuitable is the kind of gothic story that smiles politely right before everything goes deeply off the rails. With a heroine convinced her dead mother lives in the scar on her neck, a parade of terrible suitors, and a courtship that only gets stranger from there, this one blends Victorian manners, dark humor, and creeping madness into something deliciously unsettling.
Choose your retailer
About the book
Molly Pohlig's The Unsuitable is a fierce blend of Gothic ghost story and Victorian novel of manners that's also pitch perfect for our current cultural moment.
Iseult Wince is a Victorian woman perilously close to spinsterhood whose distinctly unpleasant father is trying to marry her off. She is awkward, plain, and most pertinently, believes that her mother, who died in childbirth, lives in the scar on her neck.
Iseult's father parades a host of unsuitable candidates before her, the majority of whom Iseult wastes no time frightening away. When at last her father finds a suitor desperate enough to take Iseult off his hands—a man whose medical treatments have turned his skin silver—a true comedy of errors ensues.
As history's least conventional courtship progresses into talk of marriage, Iseult's mother becomes increasingly volatile and uncontrollable, and Iseult is forced to resort to extreme, often violent, measures to keep her in check.
As the day of the wedding nears, Iseult must decide whether (and how) to set the course of her life, with increasing interference from both her mother and father, tipping her ever closer to madness, and to an inevitable, devastating final act.

The Best Man

Our take
The Best Man: Unfinished Business brings Harper, Jordan, and Robyn back for a messy, emotional second act full of old wounds, complicated love, and the kind of friendships that refuse to let anyone fall apart alone.

About the book
The beloved characters from The Best Man movies and hit television series reunite for a sexy and soulful, heartbreaking and hilarious reckoning of love.
Recently divorced and fresh off a Pulitzer Prize win, Harper Stewart is in a new era. He’s working on a movie and living the ultimate bachelor life in his Brooklyn penthouse. But still, something is missing. What else explains the stubborn creative block? The carousel of women? And seventh-wheel status with his friends?
Jordan Armstrong had to flee New York. First, to give herself distance from Harper and, second, to escape the corporate grind. In her beachfront Malibu property, the façade of a “healed” Jordan flourishes. Yet she finds herself unmoored. Despite the physical distance, she still feels Harper’s magnetic pull.
Meanwhile, in Ghana, Robyn has gone full bohemian restaurateur. She has finally found peace and won’t let another man ruin it—that is, until a handsome local entrepreneur commands her attention. But it’s all too much change for her daughter, Mia, and when she secretly calls Harper with an emergency Robyn would rather hide, their world is shaken and relationships are tested once more.
Book one of The Best Man trilogy follows Harper, Jordan, and Robyn as they try to establish lives away from the hurts of the past and come to realize that some love is impossible to break. With support from their close-knit crew of chosen family—Quentin, Shelby, Lance, Murch, and Candace—they fight for a future that proves one’s second act can be the extended chapter worth it all.

Our take
On a world tour built around damage control, proximity becomes its own kind of risk.

About the book
A brand new fake dating destination romcom to fall in love with in 2026!
'[A] bright, beautiful, and absolutely addictive read.' NetGalley reviewer
No one said fake dating was going to be easy…
Two weeks ago, Lexi O’Reilly had her perfect job. Today, she’s being fired for seeing something she shouldn’t have. With a social media scandal waiting to drop, all she wants is to disappear until the storm has passed.
Enter Tristan Martinelli, her brother’s best friend and oceanographer. With a deadline looming for his upcoming tv series, Tristan has run out of footage, money, and sponsorships to finish his series. All he wants is to wrap up his life’s work and meet his deadline.
When the perfect job presents itself – a three-month stint at an exclusive private island resort with some of the best-preserved reefs in the world, where Lexi will run the hotel, and Tristan the dive centre – the only snag is that they must be a couple to apply. Despite knowing how she feels about Tristan, they make a deal to fake being engaged to apply for the job. Surely pretending to be in love with the man you’re already in love with should be easy, right?

Choose your retailer
About the book
Olivia Twist is an innovative reimagining of Charles Dickens' classic tale Oliver Twist, in which Olivia was forced to live as a boy for her own safety until she was rescued from the streets. Now eighteen, Olivia finds herself at a crossroads: revealed secrets threaten to destroy the "proper" life she has built for herself, while newfound feelings for an arrogant young man she shouldn't like could derail her carefully laid plans for the future.
Olivia Brownlow is no damsel in distress. Born in a workhouse and raised as a boy among thieving London street gangs, she is as tough and cunning as they come. When she is taken in by her uncle after a caper gone wrong, her life goes from fighting and stealing on the streets to lavish dinners and soirees as a debutante in high society. But she can’t seem to escape her past … or forget the teeming slums where children just like her still scrabble to survive.
Jack MacCarron rose from his place in London's East End to become the adopted "nephew" of a society matron. Little does society know that MacCarron is a false name for a boy once known among London gangs as the Artful Dodger, and that he and his “aunt” are robbing them blind every chance they get. When Jack encounters Olivia Brownlow in places he least expects, his curiosity is piqued. Why is a society girl helping a bunch of homeless orphan thieves? Even more intriguing, why does she remind him so much of someone he once knew? Jack finds himself wondering if going legit and risking it all might be worth it for love.
