Book Description
What happens on a tropical island stays on a tropical island...Right?? I love to mark off all the boxes of my to-do lists; love to plan what comes next. But one box that remains permanently unchecked is the relationship status box. Frustrated after another failed date, my friends convince me that a week of sand and sun will revive me and help me shake free of failed dating apps, work, and the dreariness of spring in Shipbuilt. First day in my tropical paradise and I faint, probably from dehydration, and fall into the arms of my new hero, self-made Dominican-New Yorker, Carlos. He promises me the week of a lifetime, and I let myself believe him. After all, you only live once. His ease of all things island life--from motorcycles to waterfall jumps to finding the tastiest coconuts and pineapples, lull me into letting go of my need to be in control and let him take the lead. Dimpled smiles and bronzed muscles fill me with a heat that has nothing to do with the Caribbean sun. For a brief flicker of time, I think there might be more to our fling than just hot tropical lust, but Carlos ghosts me soon after I leave the Caribbean paradise. Vacation over, reality smacks hard: cold gray days, long hours at work, and a positive pregnancy test. You've Got Love in Paradise is a juicy, steamy vacation romance, complete with a cinnamon roll hero, accidental pregnancy, and a guaranteed HEA. It's a standalone in the small-town series, Shipbuilt Shenanigans.

They’re there to prove the trolls—including a fellow contestant and their dad—wrong, and falling in love was never part of the plan. As London and Dahlia get closer, reality starts to fall away.

Pages : 385
Book Description
"So riotously clever it almost defies description...an alchemy of romantic elements held in perfect harmony."—NPR Rival ornithologists hunt through England for a rare magical bird in this historical-fantasy rom-com reminiscent of Indiana Jones but with manners, tea, and helicopter parasols. Beth Pickering is on the verge of finally capturing the rare deathwhistler bird when Professor Devon Lockley swoops in, stealing both her bird and her imagination like a villain. Albeit a handsome and charming villain, but that's beside the point. As someone highly educated in the ruthless discipline of ornithology, Beth knows trouble when she sees it, and she is determined to keep her distance from Devon. For his part, Devon has never been more smitten than when he first set eyes on Professor Beth Pickering. She's so pretty, so polite, so capable of bringing down a fiery, deadly bird using only her wits. In other words, an angel. Devon understands he must not get close to her, however, since they're professional rivals. When a competition to become Birder of the Year by capturing an endangered caladrius bird is announced, Beth and Devon are forced to team up to have any chance of winning. Now keeping their distance becomes a question of one bed or two. But they must take the risk, because fowl play is afoot, and they can't trust anyone else—for all may be fair in love and war, but this is ornithology.
