Isla Jane is having a disastrous day: she's stuck in a job she despises, her car has broken down, and she's been evicted by her flatmates. Facing the prospect of moving back home feels like admitting defeat, so she decides to secretly stay at her brother's empty flat while he's away. However, she discovers that her brother's best friend, Cade Greenley, is already there, temporarily living in the space while his own home is being renovated. Isla pleads with Cade to keep her situation a secret, and he reluctantly agrees—on the condition that she poses as his girlfriend at a work event to fend off some meddling colleagues. What begins as a simple arrangement between two almost-friends quickly evolves into something more complicated, as undeniable chemistry sparks between them. Isla grapples with her feelings for Cade and wonders if he could ever reciprocate. As she navigates this unexpected relationship, she must find the courage to stop pretending and embrace her true self. This delightful rom-com explores themes of love, friendship, and the idea that home is where the heart truly lies. Readers have praised this engaging story for its charming tropes, including fake dating and friends-to-lovers dynamics.

Sonia Hartl's The Lost Girls is laced with dark humour and queer love - it's John Tucker Must Die with a feminist girl gang of vampires. Getting over Your Vampire Ex is as Easy as Killing Him and Stealing His Girlfriend.

"Macy Evans dreams of earning enough income from her YouTube channel, R3ntal Wor1d, to leave her small, Midwestern town. But when she meets a boy named Eric at a baseball game, and accidentally dumps her hot dog in his lap, her disastrous "meet-cute" becomes the topic of a viral thread. Now it's not loyal subscribers flocking to her channel, it's Internet trolls. And they aren't interested in her reviews of VHS tapes--they only care about her relationship with Eric. Eric is overly eager to stretch out his fifteen minutes of fame, but Macy fears this unwanted attention could sabotage her "real-life" relationships--namely with the shy boy-next-door, Paxton, who she's actually developing feelings for. Macy knows she should shut the lie down, though she can't ignore the advertising money, or the spark she gets in her chest whenever someone clicks on her videos. Eric shouldn't be the only one allowed to reap the viral benefits. But is faking a relationship for clicks and subscribers worth hurting actual people?"-- Provided by publisher

"Brinkley Saunders has a secret. To everyone in the academic world she left behind, she lost it all when she dropped out of grad school. Once a rising star following in her mother's footsteps, she's now an administrative assistant at an insurance agency--or so they think. In reality, Brinkley works at Heartbreak for Hire, a secret service that specializes in revenge for jilted lovers, frenemies, and long-suffering coworkers with a little cash to spare and a man who needs to be taken down a notch. It might not be as prestigious as academia, but it helps Brinkley save for her dream of opening an art gallery and lets her exorcise a few demons, all while helping to empower women. But when her boss announces she's hiring male heartbreakers for the first time, Brinkley's no longer so sure she's doing the right thing--especially when her new coworker turns out to be a target she was paid to take down. Though Mark spends his days struggling up the academic ladder, he seems to be the opposite of a backstabbing adjunct: a nerd at heart in criminally sexy sweater vests who's attentive both in and out of the bedroom. But as Brinkley finds it increasingly more difficult to focus on anything but Mark, she soon realizes that like herself, people aren't always who they appear to be"--
