From Wall Street Journal & USA Today Bestselling Author Glenna Maynard It’s You, Babe A Small-Town Romance Collection Features The Weight of Us He's my fiancé’s brother. I shouldn't want to be with him, but fate is plotting against me. The man makes me crave things I shouldn't. He makes me want to live again. I know he feels it too—this attraction between us growing stronger each passing day. I try to give him up, walk away, leave him behind, but he won't let me go without a fight. Tucker My Brother’s Best Friend Evalee has always been off limits. She’s my best friend’s younger sister. I thought after all this time simply being her friend was enough for me. Watching her day after day strutting around my office in those tight skirts showing off her curves is driving me crazy. I can’t stop thinking about her but making a move on her could destroy my friendship with her brother. Tucker is completely off limits. He's my brother’s best friend. I’ve been in love with him since I was just a girl, but he doesn’t see me the way I see him. We’re just friends. That’s all we will ever be, so I decide to give online dating a try. Signing up for an account on a dating app shouldn’t be complicated but when I’m matched with my dream man everything changes. Calder & Maggie On the run and hiding in a small coastal town after committing a crime, the last thing Maggie expects is to move next door to a good-looking sheriff’s deputy. The longer she stays the more her lies begin to pile up and her relationship with her new neighbor heats up. When the past comes back to haunt her will the hunk next door be there to catch her when she falls? Making Her Mine Things are about to get Rowdy in Texas. A new start. Check. A new life. Check. Far away from my loser ex-boyfriend. Check. I don’t need a man. I think I have this running away from bad choices thing figured out until I run fast and hard into the arms of the Rowdy brothers. Two men who make it hard to resist their southern charm. One brother wants to use me, but the other wants to love me. He wants to make me his. Who do I choose? Mr. Right or Mr. Right Now. Fabricated Christmas Rule #1 - Never date your boss. Rule #2 - Under any circumstances never ever sleep with your boss. Rule #3 - Rules were meant to be broken. Finnick Wilder is rude and conceited. He's a jerk with a capital J who also happens to be devilishly handsome and my boss. I despise him, but when he says jump, I ask how high. Him dropping to one knee and proposing ranks way above how high I can jump. His demand for a fake fiancée crosses the line between fiction and reality. Yet, it seems like fate under the mistletoe.

Pages : 1333
Book Description
The funny, poignant trilogy following a modern British mother as she shepherds her kids through adolescence into adulthood, in one volume. These three novels chronicle the ups and downs of Lizzie as she navigates motherhood (and stepmotherhood) and her loving, if sometimes dysfunctional, relationships with Cassie, Connor, and Maisy—along with her job at the library, the needs of her ailing mum, and the yearnings of her own heart. Includes: 183 Times a Year Teenage Cassie, Lizzie’s selfie-taking, social media-obsessed daughter, hates everything about her life and wishes her parents had never divorced. But when the discovery of a terrible betrayal and a brutal attack throws the household into disarray, both Cassie and Lizzie must reassess what’s important as they embark upon separate journeys of self-discovery. All the Colours In Between Lizzie is pushing fifty, and her once angst-ridden teenage daughters have flown the nest—Cassie to London and Maisy to Australia—leaving only the less-troublesome Connor to take care of. The hard years, Lizzie believes, are behind her. But then a visit to her daughter in London leaves Lizzie troubled. Add an unexpected visitor, a disturbing phone call, a son acting suspiciously, a run-in with her ex-husband, and a new man, and Lizzie will soon learn life is something that happens while you’re busy making plans. Time Will Tell Lizzie has become a writer, and in her spare time she does all she can to keep her family—still grieving a recent loss—together. But then, the suspicious death of a celebrity brings a shock to everyone. A troubling personal connection to the dead man will lead to fear, mistrust, and a mystery reaching back into the past . . .
