Mira Patel’s got a solid accounting career, good friends, and a whole lot of distance between her and her dysfunctional family. All that’s missing is a stable romantic relationship. Armed with a spreadsheet and professional help, she sets out to find her partner in only legal activities, but much to her matchmaker’s dismay, no one is quite right.

Rhiannon Hunter may have revolutionized romance in the digital world, but in real life she only swipes right on her career - and the occasional hookup. The cynical dating app creator controls her love life with a few key rules: nude pics are by invitation only; if someone stands you up, block them with extreme prejudice; protect your heart. Only there aren't any rules to govern her attraction to her newest match, former pro-football player Samson Lima. The sexy and seemingly sweet hunk woos her one magical night...and disappears.

One night. No one will know. That was the deal. Every year, Livvy Kane and Nicholas Chandler would share one perfect night of illicit pleasure. The forbidden hours let them forget the tragedy that haunted their pasts - and the last names that made them enemies. Until the night she didn't show up. Now Nicholas has an empire to run. He doesn't have time for distractions, and Livvy's sudden reappearance in town is a major distraction. She's the one woman he shouldn't want...so why can't he forget how right she feels in his bed?

Beauty expert and influencer Jia Ahmed has her eye on the prize: conquering the internet today, the entire makeup industry tomorrow, and finally, finally proving herself to her big, opinionated family. She has little time for love, and even less time for the men in her private messages — until the day a certain international superstar slides into her DMs, and she falls hard and fast.

Accused of a crime he didn't commit, Jackson Kane fled his home, his name, and his family. Ten years later, he’s come back to town: older, wiser, richer, tougher - and still helpless to turn away the one woman he could never stop loving, even after she married his brother. Sadia Ahmed can’t deal with the feelings her mysterious former brother-in-law stirs, but she also can’t turn down his offer of help with the cafe she’s inherited. While he heats up her kitchen, she slowly discovers that the boy she adored has grown into a man she’s simply unable to resist.

In Alisha Rai’s second novel in her Modern Love series, a live-tweet event goes viral for a camera-shy ex-model, shoving her into the spotlight - and into the arms of the bodyguard she’d been pining for.

Heiress Evangeline Chandler knows how to keep a secret, like her life-long crush on the tattooed hottie who just happens to be her big brother’s friend. She’s a Chandler, after all, and Chandlers don’t hook up with the help. Then again, they also don’t disobey their fathers and quit their respectable jobs, so good-girl rules may no longer apply. Gabriel Hunter hides the pain of his past behind a smile, but he can’t hide his sudden attraction to his friend’s sheltered little sister.

Wenn der Mann, vor dem dich alle warnen, das Beste ist, das dir passieren kann...

Schließlich ist sie eine Chandler, und Chandlers lassen sich nicht mit den Angestellten ein. Doch dann passiert etwas, das die Regeln ändert, und auf einmal scheint alles möglich. Gabriel Hunter versteckt seine schmerzvolle Vergangenheit hinter einem Lächeln, aber die Gefühle, die er für plötzlich für die behütete kleine Schwester seines Freundes empfindet, kann er nicht verbergen.

Vor zehn Jahren wurde Jackson Kane eines Verbrechens bezichtigt, das er nicht begangen hatte. Nun ist er zurück: älter, weiser und reicher. Und er trifft auf die Frau, die er nie aufgehört hat zu lieben, selbst als sie seinen Bruder heiratete. Auch Sadia fühlt sich zu ihm hingezogen. Allerdings wehrt sie sich mit aller Macht gegen die Gefühle, die ihr geheimnisvoller Ex-Schwager in ihr weckt. Eine gemeinsame Zukunft ist eigentlich unmöglich, aber die gegenseitige Anziehung ist übermächtig. Sadia und Jackson müssen entscheiden: Sind sie stark genug, sich der Vergangenheit zu stellen?

Bis Olivia eines Tages nicht auftaucht und Nicholas sich fragen muss, ob seine Gefühle für sie nicht doch viel größer sind, als er dachte.
