Anywhere with You

By Margo Glynn

Honey Singh and Cara Espinoza have two things in common: Their despicable, odious, lying spouses are having an affair, and they need a vacation.

They take a road trip, filming their adventures and posting them online to prove to everyone back home that they’re fine—not heartbroken and not staying home grief-eating cartons of ice cream. What better way to make a new friend than late nights and long drives? As their heartbreak takes a back seat to healing, they realize that they want more from each other than just conversation. Passion and friendship are a potent combination, but a seemingly small secret could end their romance before it truly begins.

Set against the backdrop of ever-changing landscapes and starlit skies, Anywhere with You is full of hope and humor, a second chance at love, searching for aliens, hooking up in nature, and avoiding dangerous wildlife (most of the time).

Dreams Entangled

By Sophia Kell Hagin

Both Pirin Basamendi and Gracie Olwyn have way too much to hide, not to mention a virulent contagion to avoid. Which is why they'd have preferred to never meet each other. But Gracie has what Pirin is eager to retrieve and Gracie is desperate to get rid of: the lightning stone. So, reluctantly, they do meet—and discover an instant attraction that's impossible to resist.  

Soon, despite themselves, they begin to reveal their secrets—and become deeply entangled in each other’s lives. For Pirin, this means immersion in Gracie’s unsettling, scary-vivid episodic dreams about two women, Analergin and Kaldi, and events that somehow eerily echo her own ancestral past. For Gracie, it means helping Pirin confront the very real threat of a man determined to kill her.

Amid self-doubt, stealth, a pandemic, fear of attack, and attempted murder, their attraction turns to love—and their lives will never be the same.

Tapout

By Nicole Disney

Every fight has stakes, and the hardest jabs are the ones you don’t see coming.

Laila Moretti was on the verge of making her UFC dream a reality. A standout in the regional circuit, she was one win away from a contract—until a crushing defeat shattered her confidence.
