Nic generally thinks no further ahead than the next meal, but even to her this is the perfect plan. Marry her best friend George and they’ll both get access to his trust fund.

Okay, there are a few hitches. George’s mother hates her for being Latina. She’s gay, not straight. Oh, and then there’s Klara. The wedding planner.

Klara gives her heart to every woman she meets, so it’s no surprise that she harbors a crush on Nic. But her failing business needs this wedding and she can’t afford to screw it up. So why can’t she keep her hands off the blushing bride?

Money, business, friendship, everyone’s got something to lose. But when hearts are on the line, the stakes just can’t get any bigger. Or can they?

Kiran has no room in her life for love.

She’s perfectly content with her close-knit friends, her avian research at the local university, and, well, her own hand is enough to satisfy her on lonely nights.

But then her BFF starts a family, Kiran’s dean denies her tenure, and she breaks her wrist trying to tame a traumatized cockatoo. In just a few days, everything Kiran cares about is obliterated. The icing on the cake? Her influencer sister is planning the wedding of the century and to make it Instagram-perfect, she made Kiran promise not to be a loner with no date.

So when wildlife rescuer Danielle calls Kiran to help rehome a displaced owl, their road trip turns into more than either of them bargained for. In shared motel rooms across the Midwest, it’s easy to go from venting to hooking up, and Danielle even agrees to stand in as Kiran’s wedding date.

But will their friends with benefits arrangement end when Kiran’s cast comes off, or can she make room for love at last?

When I first arrived at the mansion, I couldn’t remember anything. My name, how I’d got there or who the people were around me. I knew I was a woman, and the pink dress and brown ankle boots I wore felt vaguely familiar, but nothing more.

It wasn’t long before I was told my name was Celina. I was given a suite to stay in and encouraged to prepare for the mysterious Prince Eldran’s masquerade party. I found everything I needed in my suite, other than the answers I sought.

Fragments of memory hinted at dark experiences, at love and loss, but there was no context and I was uncertain about my history and what the future might hold for me.

A stranger at the time, Sorcha found me alone as I sought solace in an empty room. I discovered she too had missing memories, and in her I found a person to talk to. A friend and more, but did we have a chance?

Out and proud lesbian singer/songwriter Emmy Whittaker is not amused when her manager books her on Andrea Stone’s show. She has worked hard to build a following. That includes many younger fans who trust her to have their backs. Stone, who has a reputation for hearing differing opinions on controversial issues, doesn’t fit the bill.

Adel’s social circle is rather small. Without the fans of her blog, she wouldn’t have one at all. This doesn’t bother Adel as much as it probably should, but with her apartment feeling as empty as her love life, Adel’s determined to make a change. Starting with herself.

Asking someone else out, however? Adel’s going to need a lot more than some liquid courage to pull it off. 

Gail’s put everything she has into her family’s bar, but if she doesn’t think of something soon, she’ll lose everything she owns. With the walls closing in around her, what Gail really needs is a distraction, something to take her mind off of things, if only for a little while.

Meeting a new patron is exactly what Gail needs. What she doesn’t expect, however, is to miss the other woman’s company once she’s gone.

Without Adel’s number or an address to go by, Gail’s left with the memory of an evening that ended much too soon. But when their paths cross twice in one night?

Gail isn’t about to make that mistake again.
