She's The New Girl In Town Genevieve Slate never thought she'd return to small-town life. But she never expected that the man she loved would reject her, either. Now living in quaint Lane's End, Ohio, Gen's starting over. Her job at the local police station is perfect, and she's ready for her first case. What she isn't prepared for is the instant chemistry she feels when she meets math teacher Cary Hudson. While getting to know new people—especially cute men-is on Gen's to-do list, between the basketball fever that's gripped Lane's End and a vandal who's not making Gen's job any easier, who has time for romance? Besides, Cary's healing from a broken heart, too, so there's no way he'd be interested in anything more than friendship. Or would he… ?
Camping on a futon and babysitting her nephews is not the summer vacation Anna Elliot had in mind, but then Frida Wentworth rolls back into town - home from conquering the world, one stunning photograph at a time. Anna has never entirely forgiven herself for letting Frida go. And Frida, it would seem, hasn’t forgiven her either. No one knows about their past, thank goodness. But before Anna's very eyes, two of her friends fall under Frida's spell. Set in Auckland, New Zealand, over the holidays, this Sapphic retelling of Jane Austen's Persuasion takes the OG second-chance romance for an antipodean spin, with a splash of forced-proximity and a pinch of love-triangle. Trigger warning for historical suicide (in the backstory).
