Don't Cry, Darling!
5 pp · Romance

A young woman named Cleo finds herself haunted by grief two years after losing her fiancé Bert to a tragic accident, until a chance meeting with a stranger named Roger Harris—whose voice strikingly echoes her lost love—draws her back toward life and possibility. As Roger's feelings deepen and he becomes a steady presence in her world, Cleo must navigate the tender, complicated territory between honoring her past and opening her heart to a new future. A quietly moving romance about loss, second chances, and learning to let go.

June Is for Jilted
5 pp · Romance

When Dan's fiancée Doris jilts him for another man just before their June wedding, he's left nursing his wounds—until Isabel, her former bridesmaid, insists the breakup might be a blessing in disguise. Determined to prove her wrong, Dan heads to Pine-Crest for the honeymoon he'd planned alone, only to find Isabel already there, and their chance encounter forces them both to confront feelings that have been simmering beneath the surface all along. "June Is for Jilted" is a sharp little romance about second chances and the people we overlook until we're finally ready to see them.

Less Than Perfect
5 pp · Romance

Nancy meets Joe at the museum and falls hard—so hard that they're married within a month. But when Joe's glamorous mother Gina takes them to California after the honeymoon, Nancy discovers that Joe may not love her quite as much as she thought, especially once his mother starts dropping hints about her plain appearance and dowdy wardrobe. Caught between staying true to herself and becoming the woman her new family seems to want, Nancy has to decide what really matters in her marriage.

A Lesson for Romeo
5 pp · Romance

A young woman in the office decides to teach serial heartbreaker Danny Vale a lesson by transforming herself into an irresistible beauty and keeping him at arm's length, even as his affections grow. What begins as calculated revenge at a company party spirals into something neither of them expected, as the line between the game and genuine feeling starts to blur. "A Lesson for Romeo" is a clever turn on the office romance, where the hunter becomes the hunted—and both discover that some lessons cut both ways.

Surprise
5 pp · Romance

A broken engagement threatens to derail a young couple's wedding plans when a careless argument drives them apart—but when an old family friend arranges a chance reunion at their newly rented apartment, Mack and Lillian discover that their friends have orchestrated something neither of them saw coming. Sometimes the best surprises are the ones that bring you back to where you belong.
