Second-chance Christmas romance

Alice had no choice but to leave Lisette, three years into the romance that all started with the family Christmas ball every ten years. With Richmond family head and Alice’s aunt Gina offering an ultimatum that held Alice’s niece Rose hostage, she had no choice but to break up with the woman she loved—or to convince Lisette to break up with her, even if by lying.

When Lisette got her dream job offer in a different continent, she never thought leaving for France meant leaving Alice, too. But only a few months later, Alice shook her world telling Lisette she’d cheated on her, and she never dared open her heart again.

Seven more years after, the two of them never thought they could fall in love again—let alone with one another. But the Christmas ball comes every ten years, and the two of them find themselves together again in the same place they fell in love the first time.

The Last Christmas Ball is a 100k second-chance Christmas romance that takes place ten years after The Christmas Ball, dealing with themes of chosen family, trust and forgiveness, and of choosing happiness for ourselves. Content warnings for religious homophobia, open-door sex scenes, really nasty family members, and lesbians who are obviously in love with each other but keep making bad decisions.

The Simple Answer cover: a woman standing at a window staring out at a neighborhood

Enemies-to-lovers girl-next-door small-town romance

Emily Garrett made a promise: no more forgiving people who hurt her.

But when she moves back to her hometown after graduating college and ends up next door to her best friend’s sister, childhood bully and her first crush, Vanessa Schreier, who is desperate to make amends, she finds that sometimes, the simple answer really is the best one.

The Simple Answer is a 75k-word girl-next-door romance about growth, forgiveness, and is the first book in the Ember Grove small-town romance series. Content warnings for childhood bullying, emotional manipulation, a car accident but no one gets hurt I promise, people talking about feelings, and more references to J-pop artists than I thought I’d be able to sneak into a novel.

Worlds clash in this enemies-to-lovers class difference romance

Natasha Seychelle, heiress to the vast Seychelle Enterprise, has been on a crumbling road ever since losing her mother. Losing her friends, falling away from her work responsibilities, and sinking deeper into depression, rumors are she won’t be able to succeed the company at the end of the summer.
Annelise Benson just lost her kitchen job and is in freefall. She’s desperate enough to take a sketchy job offering more money than should be possible, but the summer caretaker position she signs up for gets tricky when it turns out she’s a tool used to try shaming Natasha Seychelle herself into reforming.
The two come from vastly different worlds and clash in an ugly meeting that sets them head to head. Annelise’s dedication to completing a job is too strong for Natasha to shake her off, but—maybe, just maybe, they’ve come together for a reason.

Different Worlds is a 100k enemies-to-lovers slow burn romance featuring a class difference romance, themes of grief and loss, comfort and healing, and lots of sentimental emotional fluff. Content warnings for depression, loss of family, and one really nasty uncle. Oh, and sapphic flirting. Don’t read this book if you hate seeing girls flirting with each other. Definitely not.

Different Worlds cover: a woman in a red dress stands facing a golden sky
Good Composition cover: two women embrace on a beach

Low-angst friends-to-lovers fluff in a light, easy read

Erin’s dreams didn’t pan out the way she’d had in mind. An unsatisfying job, a relationship gone south, she’s heading nowhere fast—until she sends one little text to an old best friend, estranged with time.
But bringing Aubrey back into her life changes everything for Erin, as the last things holding her relationship together fall apart. With nothing left to lose, what’s stopping her from leaving home, crossing the country and staying with Aubrey instead?
In the middle of struggles with her self-image, with health and with work trying to start a new life starting from scratch, she finds herself falling into something unfamiliar—she never thought she might be a lesbian, but before long, her best friend starts to feel like maybe more than a friend.

Good Composition is a 50k-word low-angst friends-to-lovers romance. Content warning for an emotionally abusive relationship, hospitalization, an eating disorder, open-door sex scenes and Britney—just Britney. Pick it up for a lighthearted, fluffy and easy read that feels like a shippy fanfiction or a teenage romantic daydream!

Opposites attract in this sweet romance

Melissa Warden is at the top of her field, CFO of a high-powered financial institution, but there’s only one problem: she doesn’t know why she did any of it, what she sacrifices every second of her life for. And after lying to her family pretending she has a girlfriend to keep them from worrying about her, it backfires when they invite her girlfriend to her sister’s baby shower. With everything at risk of crashing down at work, she’s forced to face the fact that she’s thrown her whole life away for nothing more than a title.

Kayla Spencer lives by a motto that matches the name of her candy store: Life is Sweet. But her faith in that mantra is put to the test when her candy store is heading towards insolvency, and when an ex-boyfriend from a life she thought she escaped shows up to try to bring her back.

Grabbing a customer you barely know to pretend to be your girlfriend just to get a pushy ex off your back is a half-baked plan, but Kayla has a lot of those. Besides, what are the odds that customer you barely know is actually a disillusioned millionaire who could also use a fake girlfriend? That would be an unbelievable coincidence that would obviously never happen.

Life is Sweet is a 50k-word f/f romance between a millionaire lesbian corporate executive looking for meaning in life and a disaster bisexual just trying not to crash and burn, featuring a fake relationship that turns into a real one, pushy businesspeople who won’t take no for an answer, and a rabbit named Leonardo who is a total jerk, despite how cute he is.
Content warning for descriptions of domestic abuse and intimate partner violence, open-door sex scenes, and the most disastrous of bisexual disasters.

The Christmas Ball cover: A woman stands in a ballgown by a Christmas tree

A secret relationship for Christmas

Alice doesn’t want to go to this Christmas party. Pretending to be straight around all her family and the Fowler family for an entire month to prepare for a ball, for her to dance with the man they want her to marry is not in the top 100 ways to spend December. But since her family is paying her tuition, she can’t risk saying no. Besides, it’s only once every ten years. She just has to survive.

She thinks she can handle it, until she finds out her rehearsal partner she’ll be spending the month with is the same one from ten years before–and the first girl Alice ever liked. And unfortunately for her, her feelings haven’t changed.

The Christmas Ball is a 50k-word f/f romance with family drama, a secret romance, a childhood crush, plenty of mutual pining, and of course, they only have one bed.
Content warning for open-door sex scenes, queerphobia, and a really sleazy man.
