Second Chance Christmas

Alexa Rivers

Alexa had mentioned that she had just released a novella for the Christmas season. This is it!

Evie Parata was never one to stand still for long. She breezed out of her small town as a teenager to see the world and never looked back. But lately, the years of constant motion have weighed on her. Going back home to regroup seemed like a great plan. Getting stranded outside her ex’s bar? Not part of the plan. Finding out she might have lingering feelings (and maybe some new ones) for the sexy Irishman? Disaster.

While Davy O’Connor is willing to invite Evie into his home, falling for her is another matter entirely. He’s been there, done that, and still has the emotional scars to show for it. But as it turns out, Evie’s changed. She’s older, wiser, and more gorgeous than ever. And despite his best intentions, he can’t seem to keep his mind—or his hands—off her… which will surely be a problem when she inevitably skips town. Again.

Can Evie and Davy overcome their painful past to take a second chance at love? Or are they destined to go their separate ways when Christmas ends?

Second Chance Christmas is a steamy small-town romance set in stunning New Zealand.

What's French for Oops?

Amy Blythe

This is the book that Amy ironicly didn't have a copy of her own to show us, just the proof version.

Jean has the perfect nannying job in London—her only complaint, a sexy stranger in a pub who doesn’t call her the next day.

Matt wants to give his kids every opportunity, so jumps at the chance to live abroad. Half-way through pitching the idea to his ex-wife, in comes the new nanny. Dancing with Jean was the most spontaneous thing he’s done since the night his son was conceived. And now he’s taking her to Paris… as his employee.

Jean doesn’t speak a word of French, but she’ll do anything to make the kids happy. Matt is used to making the rules, and having them followed. Stuck in a too-small apartment, they soon rub each other up the wrong way. But there’s no getting away from the sizzling attraction between them.

What could be the harm in giving in just once?

Within My Reach

Amy Blythe

The love of Jane Austen comes through in this retelling of Persuasion.

Anna's summer vacation just got derailed: her family home has to be rented out, and the new tenant is her ex-girlfriends's sister.

Camping on a futon and babysitting her nephews, Anna pulls together a plan-B vacation. If only she wasn't constantly bumping into her ex, who just got back from conquering the world, one stunning photograph at a time.

Anna has never entirely forgiven herself for letting Freddie go. And Freddie, it would seem, hasn’t forgiven her either.

No one knows about their past—a blessing-turned-curse when, before Anna's very eyes, not one but two of her friends fall under Freddie’s spell.
