Love at Second Sight ♥ She had a crush on the celebrity but fell in love with his brother. ♥ Lucy Morrowitz has two dreams. First, to reopen the Starlight, a drive-in theater she inherited from her parents. Second, to marry her celebrity crush-motivational speaker, Carter Hughes. Neither goal is attainable until her coworker, morning show DJ, Crew Keller, convinces the community to save the small-town landmark. When Carter Hughes accepts her Hail Mary of an invitation to give the kickoff speech at the Harvest Ranch spring cleanup, suddenly, neither dream feels as far out of reach. Zachary Hughes has never been much of a dreamer. He doesn't have as glamorous a job as his brother, but it's steady and reliable, even if he doesn't love it. He doesn't care that he's not well known, in fact, he prefers a quiet life, and there's nothing Carter has that Zach envies-until he meets his fiancée. Because of her, Zach finds himself reaching for more: A job he looks forward to every day. A town where he's known, and not just as Carter's little brother. And the perfect person to spend his life with-someone who laughs with him, challenges him, accepts him, loves him. Someone like Lucy. Are these the dreams that will bring them happiness? Perhaps the motivational speakers are right-Lucy and Zach can reach their dreams-they just have to make sure they're reaching for the right ones. ♥ A fresh take on a classic rom-com, this sweet small-town romance will have you dreaming of an evening spent at the drive-in with your sweetheart. ♥

This contemporary retelling of Beauty & the Beast with a touch of Romeo & Juliet is the next sweet romance in the Destination Billionaire series.

♥ A stand-up comedian with ties to the mafia clearing the family name. A jewelry designer with an impossible task. Lucky for her, this downstairs neighbor is willing to help-but with him, everything comes at a price. Are his Rumpelstiltskin-style tricks driven by selfishness or does he have a heart of gold? ♥ Leave it to billionaire jewelry designer Autumn Molinero's father to cash in on her name and leave her in the lurch. He runs off to Europe, and she has how much time to come up with a crazy number of custom designs to protect her brand? Impossible. Her gorgeous downstairs neighbor Kian is willing to help-for a price. Should she trust the Rumpelstiltskin-like ploys of a man with family ties to the mafia? All she wants is to make it through the summer and maybe save her career, not fall in love with a man with ulterior motives. Yet something about him draws her in--could be his humor, his sweetness, his dependability, even his work ethic. Kian Gould is on a quest of his own. Clearing the family name is no joke for this stand-up comedian. Some call it a treasure hunt, but to him, it's a necessity. He just has to scare his upstairs neighbor out of the way-which may or may not lead to a ghost haunting her shop. Except maybe he doesn't want to push her too far away. Just how much is a name worth? Is it worth sacrificing true love to protect it? ♥ Inspired by the Rumpelstiltskin fairy tale, this standalone heartwarming novel will bring a little clean, flirty fun to your day! ♥
