What happens in Italy stays in Italy. But what’s supposed to happen if you start falling in love?
Lawyer Olivia Wright is in Amalfi for one reason: to present at a prestigious medico-legal conference and prove that she’s at the top of her field. After her boyfriend cheated with his secretary, Liv swore off men for good.
No more mistakes. No more heartache.
Until Dr Lawson Fisher walks in. He’s her ex’s friend and the definition of a silver fox. This tempting plastic surgeon should be off-limits. But one smouldering glance across a candlelit restaurant, and Liv’s good intentions dissolve into the sultry Italian night.
Lawson offers what Liv knows she shouldn’t want: a reckless, wickedly hot weekend with no strings. She should say no. But how can she resist the man who makes her feel desired for the first time in years?
Lawson’s own scars run deep, with heartbreak and betrayal he’s never shared. For three unforgettable nights, he’ll worship Liv’s body and tease her mind. Hinting that what begins as pure pleasure could prove to be something far more.
When Monday comes, will they walk away with only memories of one passionate weekend… or take a chance at the forever neither of them believes in?

Siblings Martin, Kelsey, Beth, and Jonny are as different as can be, but they have one thing in common. They’re all longing to reinvent their lives. Raised by their divorced, lapsed Amish father and English mother, they only knew real stability and a sense of family when visiting their Old Order grandparents, Josiah and Sylvia Schrock, in peaceful small-town Millersburg, Ohio. Now the four want to try living with them and joining their faith—much to the Schrocks’ surprise . . .
Martin, the eldest, is reeling from a bad breakup, so he’s especially determined to make a fresh start. When he meets his grandparents’ neighbor, Patti Coblentz, he’s immediately drawn to her outgoing, helpful nature—but is so overwhelmed that he appears blunt and rude. Is there any way he can drop his defenses enough to admit she’s captured his heart?
Always self-conscious about the birthmark on her temple, Patti is resigned to never marrying and busying herself with the responsibilities of the large home and property she has inherited. Besides, Martin’s ill-mannered behavior and disconcerting directness make him the last man she’d ever want to wed—no matter how handsome he is.
Yet given time and patience—and adhering to their grandparents’ unexpectedly challenging rules—the whole family might just find what they’re looking for, even Martin and Patti.
Titles in the Amish ABCs series include: A is for Amish ~ B is for Bonnet ~ C is for Courting ~

Welcome to Claw Haven, where monsters go to find some peace and quiet.
Going home for Christmas wasn’t on chimera Arthur Pineclaw’s to-do list, not since he left the sleepy town of Claw Haven over a decade ago. He’s back now for one reason only—to film a cozy holiday romance. Two weeks of smiling for the cameras and charming his fans, and he can go back to LA. Easy. After all, there’s no one he can’t charm.
No one except for Emma Curt, the high school sweetheart he dumped on Christmas Eve. The same woman who apparently owns the café they’re filming in.
Emma never would’ve agreed to let her café be a filming location for a rom-com if she’d known Arthur Pineclaw was the lead. She’d rather eat rocks than be civil to the guy who abandoned her to become a movie star—on Christmas Eve.
But as the two spend more time together, it’s easy to fall into old habits…and into bed. Just because things are still good between them doesn’t mean Emma’s ready for anything more, but when their unexpected reunion stirs up old feelings—and old arguments—a second chance romance might be the gift they both need.
