Ellie Hall

Catherine played it safe with book boyfriends-until Kellan, her nemesis, writes himself into her story. Let's not talk about how I was let go from my job and had to take a position as coffee-girl at a publicity firm. We definitely won't discuss their newest client and how he was the former love of my life. However, it's fair to mention that Kellan Connelly is now my fiercest adversary. I've spent the last decade playing it safe with book boyfriends-avoiding frustratingly attractive and three-dimensional guys like him. When my roommate finds the Boyfriend Book, a silly relic leftover from my teens, it prompts a dare; go on five dates and pick one to be my Valentine. I can't say no, especially if it means proving to myself and Kellan that I've moved on. Despite braving the dating jungle, none of the guys comes close to being my one true love. Except Kellan. He's infuriating, confusing, catnip...and it turns out he has a secret. With a love letter and a plane ticket in hand, can I leave my baggage behind and decide between love, hate, and the lies I told to protect my fragile heart?

A Sweet, Heartwarming & Uplifting Romantic Comedy

An Unexpected Love Story

Girl walks into clinic to donate blood.Girl passes out. Guy comes to her rescue.Guy happens to be Cutie McCute Stuff and has a medical degree. To say I'm accident prone is an understatement. More like unlucky in life, love, and Labradors-and I have the scar to prove it. In fact, my coworkers call me Luckless-Lottie. Dr. Russel Koenig is out of my league, off-limits. Not an option. End of story. Only, through a cruel twist of my bad luck, the good (looking) doctor purchases his ailing grandmother a dog-the kind my parents breed. They want me to work as the liaison even though I limped away from the family business long ago. When Russel's Oma mistakes me for his girlfriend, he doesn't correct her. Maybe my luck has changed. Our first kiss certainly doesn't seem like CPR practice. Is my latest accident the beginning of a new chapter or will rotten luck reign, leaving me forever lonely?

An Accidental Love Story

Love, Laughter and Happily Ever After

All's fair in love and dares unless your friends dare you to find your Marriage Match. I met the perfect guy aka Mr. Right. Too bad he worked for a rival company on the other side of the country. And saying we'd met is a bit of a stretch. More like we had a string of flirty email exchanges. However, I can't say no to a dare...or our digital chats. When our companies merge, thankfully, I don't lose my job. The remaining (un)lucky employees are sent on a corporate wilderness survival retreat. When the bus leaves me behind with Mr. Wrong, it's certain disaster until I discover his identity. No way. Shaw Dawson worked hard to get to the top. Wronged by business partners and in relationships, he's cautious about who enters his trust triangle. He's the kind of guy to play it safe even though he feels a connection to me that's stronger than Wi-Fi. Yes way. Flirting with a guy from another company seems innocent enough until I learn he's my new (and very grumpy boss), making dating off-limits. Despite our proximity, distance grows between us. Will he redeem himself and prove that he's Mr. Right after all?

Dare to Love My Grumpy Boss

Designing Happily Ever After

An Unwanted Love Story

A dating dare? It could turn out to be the perfect match or it could be worse than a slap on a sunburn. Me, little ol' Paisley Jones, envisioned glitz and glamour with my movie star fiancé until a humiliating, public scandal explodes in my life like damp confetti. I escape to the family cottage with an ocean view and am not looking for love until a dare and a crazy seagull send me next door. Griffin Sanders was a late-blooming goofball, but now, as a competitive surfer and business owner, not much stops him. However, when an injury keeps him out of the water, he's stuck on dry land. Turns out his teen crush is hiding out in the neighboring cottage. That would be yours truly, but I don't recognize him at first. Big waves. Big surprise. Quirky and independent, I never quite fit in the celebrity world. I'm not sure where I belong until I get on a surfboard. But it's hard to tell if the popular surfing instructor is just another guy seeking fame and fortune, the silly kid from my childhood summers, or someone I can ride the waves with. Will we take the plunge or will our affection for one another drop like the tide?

What starts as a disaster with a leaky roof, sneaky possum, and an indoor mushroom farm turns into distraction. Dean with his charm-showing me what real fun is.

Dare to Love My Fake Husband

An Unconventional Christmas Love Story

Falling in love is against Hazel's rules. Maxwell doesn't care about rules, rather recipes. But will he whip one up for a happily ever after? My full name is Hazel Loves, yes really, but I have no interest in relationships. In fact, I live by three rules: 1. Never meet the pets, parents, or best friend. 2. Never date the same guy twice. 3. Never fall in love. That's a lot of nevers. I thought I was a rebel and not above breaking rules until I broke my own. A vanilla latte with a heart in the foam formed a crack in my exterior. Then the batch of chocolate chip cookies softened something inside. Never mind, scratch that, it was Maxwell-my neighbor. As I struggle with being strong, single, and on the scene and the mushy, melty, romantic within, I try desperately not to fall in love. But what's wrong with falling if you have someone with dark tousled hair, refined yet ruggedly handsome features, and chiseled arms to catch you? Nothing. Nothing at all. Scratch that. Everything.

An Unlikely Love Story

Building What's Meant to Be

The Do Not Stay Inn is getting a second chance but will Camellia and Nash? It's bad enough I'm suddenly allergic to chocolate. I know, a travesty. But body chemistry changes with age...turns out, so does the heart. What's nominally worse is I spent my life savings on an old inn smack dab in the center of the quaint small town of Butterbury, Georgia. The plan was to feature it on the Christmas special of my home improvement show, however, the property turned out to be little more than a lump of coal. I wouldn't mind burning it to the ground, but my besties who I do the show with see potential. I'm a realtor, so usually, I have an eye for a diamond in the rough, but this one got me good. They bring in renowned businessman Nash "the Gnasher" Crandall to help bail us out. I, Camellia Calloway, can pick myself up by my own cozy slipper straps, thank you very much. Anyway, he's more like Nash Scrooge with the miserly way he destroys small businesses...and hearts. Yes, we have a history. Years ago, he got me good too. It's a shock to learn he's a widower and has an adorable son. But that won't convince me he's on Santa's nice list. No, I refuse to agree to his proposal that I pose as his fake girlfriend in order to save Christmas and the inn. As they say, fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice... ...And we end up in front of an evergreen tree, baking cookies, and then I find myself in his arms under a sprig of mistletoe. But the question is, do I return the kiss?

The Christmas Edition

The True Romance Renovation

Is there such a thing as a meet ugly? Let me back up a beat. At a party last month, I thought I'd met the one: Mr. Mysterious. Mr. Handsome. Mr. Grooves. We danced together, flirted, and had fun. Bess + Cassian = Forever. Then I never heard from him again. Still single, I officially move to Butterbury. True to form, I arrive with a bang. As in crash-boom-bang. My trusty but rusty pink Cadillac slides sideways into an Escalade. That particular SUV belongs to Mr. Angry. Yes, the same mister. To say that was the beginning of an unfortunate series of events is an understatement. I learn that my services aren't needed at the job that brought me to town. My rental floods, and I accidentally douse the mayor with a bucket of water. Okay, the last one wasn't entirely innocent, but he uses his power to torment my family and friends. Who're amazing by the way. My siblings offer to bail me out. However, I'm here to make my way and not take handouts-they're already full of makeup brushes and hair styling tools. Oh, and there aren't any openings at the local salon. So what's a resourceful gal like me to do? Take a job as a housekeeper. It comes with room and board. To my shock, it's for Mr. Cassian Megabucks. I mean billionaire. I mean Mr. Cassian Smith. The guy I wanted to be my Mr. Right. Then, in addition to cooking and cleaning, he asks me to be his fake missus to a wedding. It's a magical, unforgettable night. But he does forget me. Again. We're opposites in every way, but maybe after I dust away these cobwebs I can makeover his heart and convince him to give love a chance.
