“A radiant debut.”—Emily Henry,#1 New York Times bestselling author of Great Big Beautiful Life

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!

As featured in Today ∙ Parade ∙ PopSugar ∙ USA Today ∙ SheReads ∙ BuzzFeed ∙ BookBub ∙ Bustle ∙and more!

Six summers to fall in love. One moment to fall apart. A weekend to get it right.

They say you can never go home again, and for Persephone Fraser, ever since she made the biggest mistake of her life a decade ago, that has felt too true. Instead of glittering summers on the lakeshore of her childhood, she spends them in a stylish apartment in the city, going out with friends, and keeping everyone a safe distance from her heart.

Until she receives the call that sends her racing back to Barry’s Bay and into the orbit of Sam Florek—the man she never thought she’d have to live without.

For six summers, through hazy afternoons on the water and warm summer nights working in his family’s restaurant and curling up together with books—medical textbooks for him and work-in-progress horror short stories for her—Percy and Sam had been inseparable. Eventually that friendship turned into something breathtakingly more, before it fell spectacularly apart.

When Percy returns to the lake for Sam’s mother’s funeral, their connection is as undeniable as it had always been. But until Percy can confront the decisions she made and the years she’s spent punishing herself for them, they’ll never know whether their love might be bigger than the biggest mistakes of their past.

Told over the course of six years and one weekend, Every Summer After is a big, sweeping nostalgic story of love and the people and choices that mark us forever.

Every Summer After by Carley Fortune – $1.99 for a limited time.

Named An Anticipated Summer Read by Bustle ∙ Katie Couric Media ∙ SheReads ∙ New York Live ∙ Woman’s World ∙ and more!

A woman inherits a beach house, along with a series of weekend guests, while butting heads with the irritable (and irritatingly handsome) man next door, in this sparkling new escape from Jane L. Rosen.

 
When a Zoom disaster upends Addison Irwin’s decade-long career at a posh Manhattan advertising agency, things look bleak for the thirty-something mid-western transplant. But an unexpected inheritance from an aunt she barely remembers—a property on Fire Island, complete with guest house and artist’s studio—changes everything.
 
While debating whether to stay or sell, Addison learns that she’s also inherited her aunt’s list of eclectic guests, tying her to the island for seven summer weekends. Eager to convince Addison to keep the house rather than let a new buyer build a monstrosity in its place, the neighbors welcome her to their laid-back community. Well, all except the moody guy next door, who seems intent on glowering his way through life.
 
Steadfast in her path since college, Addison is determined not to let this detour on Fire Island throw her off track. But soon, between the revolving door of weekend visitors and the up-and-down relationship with her neighbor (and his adorable dog), she finds herself in unfamiliar territory. Should she try to pick up where she left off—or embrace entirely new possibilities?

Seven Summer Weekends by Jane L. Rosen – $1.99 for a limited time.

He’s the King of Deception, Until She Becomes His Queen

A better man would’ve said no to her desperate fake marriage proposal.

Five years deep in the syndicate, I’ve built my reputation brick by blood-soaked brick. They call me Saint—a code name that mocks the darkness I’ve embraced for my country.

When the daughter of Italy’s most dangerous family begs for my protection, my gut tells me to walk away. But there’s something in her eyes that reminds me of the man I used to be.

It’s supposed to be simple: marry her, shield her from a monster, maintain my cover. When this mission ends, she’ll be a wealthy, independent widow.

That’s the plan.

Then night falls on our wedding day, and I discover divine temptation wearing my ring. Beautiful. Brilliant. Brave. Sensual. Everything I can’t afford to want.

She can never know the real me. There’s too much at stake—my mission, my family, my country. But with every passing day, she pulls me further from the darkness, challenging the walls I’ve built.

They say even saints can fall.

She might be my ultimate test of faith.

From glittering penthouses to deadly back alleys, the seventh book in the Arrow Tactical series is a high-stakes game of deception and desire. Gilded Saint is a standalone romance, no cliffhanger, and no prior reading required. Love may be the most dangerous mission of all.

Gilded Saint (The Arrow Tactical Series Book 7) by Isabel Jolie -$.99 for a limited time.

A Library Reads Pick!

Most Anticipated by Goodreads, Cosmo, E! News, and more!

Two best friends who haven’t spoken in ten years pretend to date after break-ups with their respective exes go viral, in this delightfully fun and deeply emotional novel from New York Times bestselling author Emma Lord.

June and Levi were best friends as teenagers—until the day they weren’t. Now June is struggling to make rent on her beachside tea shop, Levi is living a New York cliché as a disillusioned hedge fund manager and failed novelist, and they’ve barely spoken in years.

But after they both experience public, humiliating break-ups with their exes that spread like wildfire across TikTok rabbit holes and daytime talk shows alike, they accidentally make some juicy gossip of their own—a photo of them together has the internet convinced they’re a couple. With so many people rooting for them, they decide to put aside their rocky past and make a pact to fuel the fire. Pretending to date will help June’s shop get back on its feet and make Levi’s ex realize that she made a mistake. All they have to do is convince the world they’re in love, one swoon-worthy photo opp at a time.

Two viral break-ups. One fake relationship. Five sparkling, heart-pounding dates. June and Levi can definitely pull this off without their hearts getting involved. Because everyone knows fake dating doesn’t come with real feelings. Right?

The Break-Up Pact: A Novel by Emma Lord- $2.99 for a limited time.

A brand new romance from Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author Sarina Bowen!

Livia

Once upon a time I spent an evening flirting with a handsome stranger in a bar. But before we could finish what we started, I lost my nerve and fled.

Months later, I’m minding my own business at work one morning when a stranger lets himself into the empty brewery. Panicked, I call 911, and the cops show up to slap on the handcuffs.

In my defense, I have very good reasons to be afraid. Also in my defense, I’d never met my boss’s son.

Or so I’d thought…

Nash

I don’t know what this chick has against me. First she ditches me, and now she wants to arrest me.

Livia is as frustrating as she is hot. But nobody else knows the brewery better than she does. Now we’re stuck together, sharing an office and a very small house as I run the brewery for six weeks for my cranky dad.

That’s just enough time to bring down her guard. Turns out we have a lot more in common than we thought, including a lot of smoking hot chemistry. Until Livia’s past catches up with her, and I finally figure out why she’s so jumpy. But I’ll stop at nothing to protect her from her ex…

Golden Touch (Giltmaker: A Small Town Romance Series Book 2) by Sarina Bowen- $.99 for a limited time.
