Meet Cute in Minnesota

Morgan Rose has always been the girl with the plan. Color-coded calendars, backup plans for her backup plans, and a wedding business that's her entire world. Only one woman ever managed to derail Morgan's organized life and shatter her heart in the process. But Morgan doesn't think about Frankie Lee anymore. Until Morgan meets the photographer hand-picked by her latest clients and discovers that Frankie is not miles away in New York like she thought. She's back in Spring Harbors, looking infuriatingly good, and Morgan's carefully ordered world descends into chaos. Morgan has just 87 days to pull off the wedding of her career and she's not going to let Frankie derail this opportunity. She will not be distracted by Frankie's new haircut or the shadowy dips between her shoulders and biceps. And she won't care about Frankie's unfairly salty attitude when she left Morgan. But some sparks never die, and as the wedding approaches and the tension between Morgan and Frankie grows, can they face up to the mistakes that pulled them apart, or risk it happening all over again? A perfectly spiced romance about learning that the best love stories are worth fighting for… twice. The next unputdownable read for fans of Ashley Herring Blake, Alexandria Bellefleur and Haley Cass.

Quinn Lee is a walking disaster with perfect hair, zero filter, and an alarming caffeine addiction who's just ploughed her life savings into rescuing her family's failing Christmas tree farm. She's got one shot to pull off a Christmas miracle, so when an important promotional cookie order goes wrong, it understandably leads to a spectacular meltdown in front of cute-as-a-button bakery owner, Zoey. Zoey bakes like an angel, thinks "drat" is a swear word, and is wholly unprepared for the opinionated, red-headed hurricane who storms into her shop competing for "world's worst customer". But she's equally unprepared to discover that you don't have to like someone to find them irresistible. When both their businesses are threatened, a reluctant partnership becomes their only solution. But somewhere between Zoey's killer dance moves and Quinn's Chuck Norris puns, incompatible starts looking a lot like inevitable. As Christmas approaches, can these polar opposites navigate unexpected feelings, and the terrifying possibility that sometimes the person you clash with most is exactly the one you need? The perfect queer romance for fans of Alexandria Bellefleur and Casey McQuiston who crave a side of holiday magic, small-town charm, and enough steam to melt even the biggest snowstorm.

What's worse than regretting a one-night stand? Being snowed in with her. Since losing her wife six years ago, Colby has perfected the hermit lifestyle: secluded Minnesota cabin, golden retriever, weekly cupcake run. Zero complications. Until a chaotic, pink-haired vet tech arrives for a house call and-in one reckless moment-Colby lets someone in. It was supposed to be one night. Then the blizzard hit. Josie is a serial hobbyist who's perfected the art of avoiding rejection. Pilates, painting, pickleball-anything but feelings. So being trapped in a cabin with no distractions and a gorgeous woman who clearly regrets last night? Personal nightmare. But a lot can happen in a week. Stolen glances turn into lingering eye contact. Awkward silences become late-night conversations. And when the snow stops, both of them have to face the question they've been avoiding: what if the biggest risk isn't opening your heart to someone, it's letting her walk away when the roads finally clear? A tender and emotional romance about finding love when (and where) you're absolutely not looking for it. Perfect for fans of Ashley Herring Blake, Casey McQuiston.
