How to Find a Romance in a Bookshop
by Poppy Alexander
Petra doesn't like books anymore--not since her career as a literary agent imploded after a social media typo went viral. Now she is stuck for six months, babysitting a little bookshop by the sea--surrounded by books that just remind her of her failure. Ross McCloud's award-winning debut novel blew the minds of the world's literati, but that was five years ago. Now Ross and his keenly awaited second work have vanished. Something has gone wrong--horribly wrong--and Ross doesn't want to talk about it. Marooned in Capelthorne's Bookshop miles from London, Petra can't stop thinking about all the ways she has let people down. Then she discovers Ross lurking, incognito, in the second-hand books section. Misery loves company it seems, and a kinship tentatively forms.

Hate Me Take Me
by Laura Bishop
For fans of Lights Out and You, this follow-up to Love Me Stalk Me is a dark rom-com about a woman matched with her fantasy boyfriend by an AI app--unaware he's actually her ex-husband, back to win her over in disguise. When Amanda Bennett signs up for the beta feature of the Obsess AI boyfriend app, she thinks it's just another marketing gimmick. Go on a date with a real man who matches her digital fantasy? Spoiler: she's skeptical. Then the app delivers. Her match is hot, brooding, motorcycle included. Perfect--except he refuses to remove his helmet, won't share his name, and somehow knows things about her no stranger should. Because he's not a stranger. He's Kade Steele, her ex-husband. The one who disappeared. The one she's spent years trying--and failing--to forget. Now he's back and determined to win her heart.

See You at the Sunset
by Susan Lee
Jia Chung is living the dream...until she gets fired from her job, yet again. With her mom breathing down her neck to move home, she needs an escape, fast. When Mimi, her beloved grandmother, invites her to spend the summer in Palm Springs, Jia jumps at the chance. Staying at Sunset Hills Senior Living Community is exactly where a free spirit like Jia can thrive--among people living their best, sun-soaked, fun-filled lives. So what if they're all octogenarians? Henry Shin lives by the rules. It's what overworked corporate lawyers do. They don't fly off to Palm Springs to help their grandfathers move into a new home. But Dennis is Henry's only family. How else can Henry make sure he's settled and safe? The boisterous Zumba classes, daily happy hours, and spicy book clubs were a surprise though. And at the center, leading the charge, is a bright, vivacious stunner named Jia Chung. The same face he'd had a one-night stand with a few months back. And the same woman Henry was forced to terminate at his company the morning after. As carefree days turn into hot, steamy nights, the chemistry between Henry and Jia ignites. But when the real world beckons, should what happens at the Sunset stay at the Sunset?
