A spellbinding tale of hidden desires, whispered secrets, and a darkness that lingers behind every locked door.

Yorkshire, 1898.

When twenty-one-year-old Lilianne Loxley is sent to Lord Bexton’s isolated estate to work off her uncle's debts, she expects drudgery—not danger. With her gift for mimicry, she becomes Bexton’s secretary—and his reluctant forger. Soon she’s trapped in a scheme to create a “lost” novel by Emily Brontë, a deception that could make—or destroy—fortunes.

The house is full of secrets: footsteps echo in empty corridors, lemon-scented ghosts haunt her sleepless nights, and a portrait seems to watch her every move. Yet it’s the living who unsettle her most—especially Wren McAllister, the sharp-tongued maid whose defiance hides a tender heart. Drawn together by loss and longing, Lily and Wren risk everything for a freedom neither has ever known.

As the line between truth and invention blurs, Lily uncovers a shocking connection to the Brontë family—and to Bexton himself—that will force her to choose between love, loyalty, and the dangerous power of her own pen.

Catherine Friend’s The Lost Brontë is an atmospheric gothic romantic mystery steeped in secrets, desire, and literary intrigue.

Award-winning author Anna Burke returns to Seal Cove in this highly anticipated fourth romance, perfect for fans of small-town settings, friends-to-lovers stories, and healing from heartbreak themes.

Kate isn’t seeking love. After a broken engagement, all she wants is to prove she can show up, smile, and maybe remember what it’s like to flirt again. Jen swore she’d never attend Seal Cove’s speed dating night—until her best friend begged her to come along. She’s only there to fill a seat, not to risk her carefully guarded heart.

But the sea air has its own pull, and the small town has a way of turning strangers into something more. One evening. Seven minutes. A spark neither of them planned.

Sometimes love doesn’t come with a grand gesture. Sometimes it waits across a wobbly café table, asking the simplest question of all: What if this time is different?

A haunting gay love story where grief becomes devotion, memory becomes myth, and a young man must choose between the ghost of his past and the truth of who he is.

With tension and heart in equal measure, Mario Elías’s Beloved Disciples is a luminous, haunting portrait of grief, devotion, and the blurred edges of memory. In a sun-bleached Caribbean town, Simón is haunted by the ghost of his lover Albi, by the weight of family, and by a faith that no longer comforts. Once bound together by whispered prayers and saltwater kisses, Simón and Albi carved a secret world from the shadows. But when Albi dies unexpectedly, that world begins to unravel.

Now, Simón finds Albi everywhere: in the rectory where they made love, in the queer sanctuaries of their found family, in the ache of things unsaid. As his estranged Catholic mother reappears with promises and expectations, Simón is torn between the love that consumes him and the version of himself he’s been running from. Past and present bleed together, memory distorts, and reality slips into something more uncertain—more sacred.

A day-in-the-life tale laced with longing, Beloved Disciples is a fevered meditation on inheritance, identity, and the desperate need to belong. For readers of Douglas Stuart’s Shuggie Bain, Fernanda Melcho’s Hurricane Season, and André Aciman’s Call Me By Your Name, this debut hums with raw beauty and tender, ruinous love.

Two girls. One celebrity crush. And a pen pal connection that just might be the real love story.

Nineteen-year-old Jay Baker is stuck. Freshly dropped out of college and floundering in her dead-end job, she’s more familiar with fictional love than the real thing—especially when it comes to her all-consuming crush on Josh Owen, the awkwardly endearing actor from the cult zombie show Undead or Alive. Nicknamed “Unrequited Love Girl” by her coworker, Jay’s convinced romance just isn’t in the cards—until she stumbles across the fanfiction account of “MrsJoshOwen.”

Enter Amber Martin: high school senior, head-over-heels Josh Owen fangirl, and the brilliant mind behind the stories that speak straight to Jay’s heart. Trapped under the weight of her family's expectations and a boyfriend who doesn’t quite understand her, Amber isn’t sure what her future holds—except that it’s probably not what everyone else is planning for her.

When Jay and Amber begin exchanging messages, their shared obsession quickly deepens into something far more real. As they open up about their fears, dreams, and everything in between, a genuine connection blossoms—one that just might turn into the kind of love they never saw coming.

At the intersection of Fangirl and She Gets the Girl, Audrey Wilson’s Dear Unrequited Love Girl is a swoony, funny, and emotionally resonant story about growing up, coming out, and discovering your person in the most unexpected way. Perfect for fans of slow-burn romance, chaotic queer crushes, and love stories written one message at a time.

Award-winning sapphic author Macon Leigh presents a luminous novel of quiet resilience, unexpected connection, and the profound beauty found in ordinary moments.

Elsie Cohan is pretty sure she’s going to be okay. And, these days, she’ll take pretty sure. Back home after experiencing a serious mental health episode, Elsie is determined to get back to her life and her art. This time, for the first time, on her terms. Whatever that means. But, don't worry, she’s going to figure it out. At least, she’s pretty sure she will.

Dawson Monroe is making sure she is never not okay again. Step one was leaving behind the high-pressure culinary scene in New York City where she was making a name for herself. Step two was turning an old barn into a roadside barbecue joint. And step three, her final step, is running her roadside barbeque joint in complete obscurity forever.

When Fate brings Elsie to Dawson’s doorstep, the two begin a stumbling journey towards both themselves and, if they can keep it from shattering, love.

Unspectacular Things is a tender, emotionally honest exploration of mental illness, healing, authenticity, and what it means to let yourself be seen. With warmth, humor, and heart, it serves as a gentle reminder that, among all the common and unspectacular things that make up life, love is the most spectacular.

Perfect for fans of novels like Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine or Honey Girl, this novel is a gentle celebration of being human—and being loved for it.
