Marriage of convenience?
Gloves Off
Romance
Our take
Marriage of convenience? More like enemies-to-lovers with gloves off. In Stephanie Archer’s steamy, grumpy-sunshine hockey rom-com, Georgia must marry NHL enforcer Alexei Volkov to get her inheritance. He’s icy, infuriating… and suddenly irresistible.

About the book
She has to marry an NHL enforcer to get her inheritance. He needs a green card. Neither of them expected feelings to get involved.
Georgia Greene’s fake marriage to Alexei Volkov is strictly transactional: she gets her money, he gets citizenship. But the hockey world's grumpiest enforcer turns out to be a lot more than scowls and muscle. He sends her secret-message flowers. He shares his bed. He calls her “wife” like he means it.
Sure, they bicker nonstop. But between stolen glances, bunny cuddles, and tension that’s one kiss away from combustion, Georgia starts to wonder: is it still fake if she’s falling for him?
Gloves Off is a sizzling, slow-burn hockey rom-com from viral TikTok sensation Stephanie Archer—where enemies marry first, and hearts catch up later.

About the book
He’s Hollywood’s hottest heartthrob. She’s the hometown baker he never forgot.

Now, their little PR stunt comes with a big diamond ring—and even bigger sparks. Zane thought he could fake his way through anything, but Willow’s sass, sweetness, and curves are making it dangerously hard to remember this is all pretend.
The Real Thing is the first irresistible book in the Sugar Lake series, a sweet and steamy small-town romance filled with laughs, heart, and a fake relationship that just might turn into forever.

About the book
On the stormy coast of England in 1928, a whale washes ashore. Twelve-year-old Cristabel Seagrave, orphaned and overlooked, claims it as her own. From its bones, she builds a theatre—a stage for imagination, rebellion, and a childhood of quiet resistance.
Raised in a crumbling manor under the indifference of her stepparents, Cristabel finds escape through performance and story. But when war arrives, the stakes become real. As an adult, she joins the British secret service, stepping into a role far more dangerous than any she once played under the whale’s ribs.
Sweeping from childhood theatrics to the resistance movement in Nazi-occupied France, The Whalebone Theatre is a dazzling debut about courage, identity, and the stories we carry through the fire of history.

About the book
Dr. Madeleine “Max” Maxwell didn’t expect her new job to involve dodging arrows, running from fire, or trying not to die in the 14th century.
At St Mary’s Institute of Historical Research, historians don’t just read about the past. They go there. Literally. With time-travel pods, questionable safety procedures, and a team of eccentric academics, Max finds herself thrust into history’s biggest disasters.
The mission is simple: observe, document, and don’t change anything. But time has a nasty sense of humor, and history doesn’t like being watched.
From the Cretaceous period to the reign of Richard III, chaos is guaranteed. So is tea.
Just One Damned Thing After Another is wildly clever, gloriously unpredictable, and the unforgettable beginning to a series you didn’t know you needed.

About the book
From the author of The Lesbiana's Guide to Catholic School, two best bros fake an engagement–but will their friendship survive?
It’s about time roommates Alejandro and Kenny get married. Or at least, that’s what all their close friends and family think when they announce their engagement. The kicker?

Han has never been able to put down roots, and the only one who truly breaks through his walls is Kenny. Sweet, sensitive Kenny is newly single, and what better distraction from his soul-sucking relationship than proposing marriage to Han? Kenny can’t think of anything more fun than spending his life with his best friend, even if it’s just for a piece of paper. But as Kenny keeps up the charade, he’s soon struggling to resist their sizzling chemistry.
The line between fact and fiction begins to blur the closer they get to their wedding date. With all eyes on Han and Kenny—including a meddling ex and immigration officers—will these two bros make it down the altar for real?

Our take
A hit songwriter with writer’s block. A mysterious voice in her head. One song they’re destined to finish together. From the New York Times bestselling author of The Seven Year Slip comes a magical, emotional romance about music, connection, and healing. A Most Anticipated Book of Summer 2025.

About the book
A song is stuck in her head—and so is he.
Joni Lark is one of LA’s most sought-after songwriters. Except she can’t write a single word. Burned out and broken, she returns to her coastal hometown of Vienna Shores, hoping the familiar rhythm of The Revelry, her family’s music venue, will inspire her again.
Instead, she finds secrets, fading memories, and a haunting melody in her head... along with a voice that isn’t hers.
That voice belongs to a guarded, infuriatingly attractive musician who seems just as tangled in the melody—and in her mind—as she is. The only way to break their inexplicable connection? Write the song. Together.
This summer, magic and music collide in a lyrical, heart-tugging romance about fate, healing, and the invisible threads that pull us together.
