FAKE DATING + FORCED PROXIMITY + HE FALLS FIRST + WORKPLACE + HOCKEY ROMANCE
A hockey team captain and a bubbly staffer mix business with pleasure when they start fake dating through the wedding season…
Darcy Kendrick is used to putting out fires. As an overworked admin to a hockey team, she’s seen it all. But nothing prepares her for accidentally DMing her very private, very NSFW fantasy to the subject of this fantasy: team captain Eric Tremaine. Nobody actually dies of embarrassment. Right?
But when a wedding invite puts them on a collision course with her chaotic family and his emotionally fraught past, Eric suggests a plan: they fake-date their way through the “Wedding Experience.” It’s mutually beneficial. Totally strategic. And definitely not real. Except between mini tacos, slow dances and lingering glances, Eric starts to wonder if the sharp-tongued assistant with a bottomless to-do list might be the one person who truly sees him. And for Darcy? The fire in her heart might be the only one she can’t put out.
It’s supposed to be fake. It’s supposed to be temporary. So why is it so hard to walk away?
This is a standalone novel in the New York Legends series.

COMING OF AGE + AGE GAP + BDSM
When Lili Marwan—seeking to escape the unrelenting pressures of her master’s thesis, recent rejection from her foster family, and unresolved grief from the death of her parents—has an intense one-night stand with Aleksandr Petrov, her restless mind finally goes calm.
At twenty-two, Lili is already opinionated beyond her years: whether it’s astrology, democratic socialism, veganism, or the ravages of late-stage capitalism run rampant. But when a tall, dark stranger buys her a drink in a FiDi bar, she suddenly meets her match. Aleksandr is formidable, fiercely intelligent, and infuriatingly disarming. He’s also more than two decades older than her, a Capricorn with a birth chart full of red flags, a neoliberal capitalist, and a strong believer in the power of free markets, having escaped the Soviet Union in its dying days.
He’s the opposite of Lili in nearly every way. He challenges her at every turn. And she can’t stay away.
Over the course of a heady New York City summer, Lili and Aleksandr reach across the divide of their differences and the decades of their lives, discovering startlingly shared experiences. Their casual arrangement—rough sex, hours where Lili does not need to make any decisions—gives way fast to an unexpected intimacy, by turns breathtaking, then devastating.
As Lili struggles to understand herself and the complicated threads of her ambition, pain, and desire, she will have to decide: is she willing to risk great loss again, for the hope of profit that is finally within reach?
This is a standalone novel. It is not a romance.

There’s a reason why Annabel Monaghan is considered to be in a class of her own when it comes to uplifting, emotionally resonant romances that leave readers beaming from ear to ear, because this gem of a book delivers pure joy from its very first page. Witty, delightful, and a refreshing take on the well-loved trope of fake dating in a small town setting, everything about this radiant novel is simply beautiful. I didn’t know I was looking for a cosy romance like this, yet there has never been a book I needed more in my life.
It doesn’t happen all that often that a book shakes me to my very core. But Wolfsong by TJ Klune has been a tectonic event in my reading life. I can tell you that it’s a male/male romance, I can tell you that there are werewolves in it, I can tell you it’s the very definition of a “found family” trope, but none of those descriptors do this book justice. TJ Klune’s minimalist prose and slow, poetic rhythm pull you in like a spell, seducing you into slow, wilful surrender, but his every word is purposeful and capable of delivering a lingering gut punch that will steal the air from your lungs. This is one of the most beautiful books I’ve ever read, and in many ways, one of the most painful, too. I read until 4am two nights in a row, crying into my pillow but unable to let these characters go. 6 STARS!
The premise of two rival meteorologists who get stuck in a snowstorm together, sharing one bed, might not be uncharted territory in the Romance genre, but B.K. Borison manages to turn a familiar trope into a fresh, richly layered, deeply relatable, warm hug of a story that left me giggling, swooning, and smiling ear to ear. Achingly tender and romantic, Jackson and Delilah dazzle off the pages.
In a rapidly changing world, there is one constant that continues to provide this reader with refuge and much needed escapism, and that constant is Kristen Ashley’s inimitable brand of storytelling. As one of the most versatile Romance writers of today, Ashley’s extensive catalogue stretches across several subgenres and tropes, but all her stories have one thing in common—emotional depth and rich character development—and her latest novel is a perfect testament to that. The quiet, restrained beauty of the English countryside offers an idyllic setting to a poignant tale of love, friendship, and mystery, that is only intensified by a touch of the supernatural. When it comes to delivering stories that take over your entire life while reading them, then settling deep into the fabric of your soul, Kristen Ashley reigns supreme.
