THE RICH BOY by Kylie Scott

AVAILABLE NOW

 •  Contemporary Romance

Iโ€™m the type of girl whoโ€™s given up on fairy tales. So when Beck โ€“ the hot new busboy at work โ€“ starts flirting with me, I know better than to get my hopes up. Happily ever afters arenโ€™t for the average. I learned that the hard way.

But how can I be expected to resist a man who can quote Austen, loves making me laugh, and seems to be everything hot and good in this world?

Only thereโ€™s so much more to him than that.
Billionaire playboy? Check.
Troubled soul? Check.
The owner of my heart, the man Iโ€™ve moved halfway across the country to be with, whoโ€™s laying the world at my feet in order to convince me to never leave? Check. Check. Check.

But nobody does complicated like the one percent.

This is not your everyday rags-to-riches, knight-in-shining armor whisking the poor girl off her feet kind of story. No, this is much messier.

BEAUTIFUL LIAR by Lauren Rowe

AVAILABLE NOW

 •  Contemporary Romance

The more beautiful the lie, the more painful the truthโ€ฆ

Iโ€™ve finally got feisty Georgina right where I want her. In my bed. In my swimming pool. Strapped into the kinky swing hanging in my home gym. And through it all, Georginaโ€™s clearly becoming more and more physically addicted to me. A junkie in constant need of her next fix. Exactly according to plan.

But, to my shock, Iโ€™m beginning to think sheโ€™s not the only addict here. Any more than sheโ€™s the only liar. In fact, as crazy as it sounds, this fiery, relentless woman has been breaking down my walls. Burrowing underneath my skin and slithering her way into my bloodstream.

Indeed, when it comes to the indomitable force of nature that is Georgina Ricci, the gorgeous woman can have anything her heart desiresโ€ฆ Well, anything, that is, besides the truth.

BEAUTIFUL LIAR is the second book of the standalone REED RIVERS TRILOGY. The full trilogy is BAD LIAR, BEAUTIFUL LIAR, and BELOVED LIAR, to be read in order.

IN FIVE YEARS by Rebecca Serle

RELEASES March 10

AVAILABLE NOW

 •  Women's Fiction

Aย Good Morning Americaย Book Club Pick, anย Indie Nextย Pick, and aย LibraryReadsย Pickย โ€ขย Named a Most Anticipated Book of 2020 byย The Washington Post,ย Bustle,ย Goodreads, andย She Reads

Perfect for fans ofย Me Before Youย andย One Dayโ€”a striking, powerful, and moving love story following an ambitious lawyer who experiences an astonishing vision that could change her life forever.

Where do you see yourself in five years?

When Type-A Manhattan lawyer Dannie Cohan is asked this question at the most important interview of her career, she has a meticulously crafted answer at the ready. Later, after nailing her interview and accepting her boyfriendโ€™s marriage proposal, Dannie goes to sleep knowing she is right on track to achieve her five-year plan.

But when she wakes up, sheโ€™s suddenly in a different apartment, with a different ring on her finger, and beside a very different man. The television news is on in the background, and she can just make out the scrolling date. Itโ€™s the same nightโ€”December 15โ€”but 2025, five years in the future.

After a very intense, shocking hour, Dannie wakes again, at the brink of midnight, back in 2020. She canโ€™t shake what has happened. It certainly felt much more than merely a dream, but she isnโ€™t the kind of person who believes in visions. That nonsense is only charming coming from free-spirited types, like her lifelong best friend, Bella. Determined to ignore the odd experience, she files it away in the back of her mind.

That is, until four-and-a-half years later, when by chance Dannie meets the very same man from her long-ago vision.

Brimming with joy and heartbreak,ย In Five Yearsย is an unforgettable love story that reminds us of the power of loyalty, friendship, and the unpredictable nature of destiny.

But is he truly Sonny Davenport? The circumstances of his discovery raise more questions than answers. And when Grace Mill, an unwed farm worker, travels from Alabama to lay claim to the child, newspapers, townsfolk, even the Davenportsโ€™ own friends, take sides.
