Books Included in This Collection:
Beach Read
January is a hopeless romantic who views life like a blockbuster movie lead. She faces heavy writer's block alongside her serious literary nemesis, Gus. Their clash leads to a wager: they swap genres and race to publish a bestseller before summer ends. This premise forces them to confront their own fears and desires head-on. As they navigate the risks of telling each other's stories, boundaries blur and worlds shift entirely. You will enjoy the slow-burn chemistry and the satisfying resolution that rewards every step of their professional and personal growth.

People We Meet on Vacation
Poppy and Alex have endured ten chaotic summers of travel together since college. What started as forced proximity and mutual dislike evolved into an unbreakable bond defined by annual trips. But everything fractures, leaving a gap in their history. Now, Poppy proposes one final journey to determine their future forever. Through flashbacks and present-day adventures, you witness the depth of a friendship that defies easy labels. The story explores how far loyalty goes when love is too hard to admit. It delivers the kind of emotional whiplash that makes romance readers cheer out loud.

Book Lovers
Nora Stephens runs the sharpest literary agency on the west coast. Her world revolves around books and career success until her sister packs her off to Sunshine Falls. In this tiny town straight out of a trope-heavy romance novel, Nora expects a peaceful retreat. Instead, she encounters her work rival, Charlie, again and again. As Nora tries to avoid him, the small town ensures their paths cross repeatedly. You will love watching Nora dismantle her defenses while Charlie proves he is more than just a nemesis. The setting adds charm, and the banter hits every right note.

Happy Place
Harriet and Wyn seem like the picture-perfect duo everyone admires. They take their cherished cottage holiday every year with a tight circle of friends. Then they break up, hiding the truth to spare everyone's feelings. When the cottage hits the market, this becomes their farewell trip. To protect their best friends, they pretend everything is normal for one last week. Tension explodes as secrets threaten to spill over in front of the people who know them best. This story dives deep into relationships, communication, and what we owe to the people we love. Expect intense emotion and a twist-filled narrative that challenges assumptions.

The Great Big Beautiful Life
Alice Scott accepts a life-changing invitation from reclusive billionaire heiress Margaret Ives. Alice joins Pulitzer-winning journalist Hayden Anderson on Little Crescent Island to pitch his biography of the legendary star. But Margaret holds all the cards, revealing scandalous secrets piece-by-piece to manipulate both aspirants. An ironclad nondisclosure agreement keeps truths locked away as yearning sparks between Alice and Hayden. You follow a puzzle of wealth, tragedy, and hidden histories that refuses to stay buried. Beyond the mystery lies a compelling dual timeline that connects past wounds to present heartbeats. It is a rich, layered tale where romance blooms amid investigation and danger.
