Eight years ago, her high school sweetheart abandoned her, skipped out on his family, and fled to Hollywood of all places. She vowed never to forgive or forget.Now big-shot screenwriter Jackson Pierce is back in Blue Moon demanding another chance. No place is safe from him. Not the stables. Not the only bar in town. Not even the clawfoot tub on Joey’s own deck.No matter how good it feels when he sneaks past her defences to land a kiss or a compliment, she is determined to pretend he doesn''t exist. Except maybe when he''s naked in her bed.Jax can''t tell Joey the truth about the night he left. It would ruin far more than just their relationship. All he can do is sweep her off her reluctant feet with orgasms, flowers, bacon, and a rescue dog. Oh, and maybe handcuff himself to her for charity, too.Blue Moon Bend’s Beautification Committee has a few tricks up its devious sleeve where Jax and Joey are concerned. Tricks that will either leave the past in the past or ensure these two lovebirds can never be in the same room again.Lucy Score brings to life the "nosiest small town in upstate New York" in this charming and compelling romantic comedy – the third in a series of romcom romps through the small but lively town of Blue Moon Bend.TropesRomantic ComedySmall TownEnemies to LoversHigh School SweetheartsContemporary RomanceThe Blue Moon Series:No More SecretsFall into TemptationThe Last Second ChanceNot Part of the PlanHolding on to ChaosThe Fine Art of Faking ItWhere It All BeganThe Mistletoe Kisser

Broke. Living with a pack of elderly roommates. And those hallucinations she''s diligently ignoring? Her tarot card-dealing mum is convinced they''re clairvoyant visions.Just when things seemingly can''t get worse, a so-hot-it-should-be-illegal private investigator shows up on her doorstep looking for one of her neighbours…who turns up murdered.Nick Santiago doesn''t play well with others. Unless the "others" are of the female persuasion. Wink. He''s a rebel, a black sheep, a man who prefers a buffet of options to being stuck with the same entrée every night, if you catch his drift.When the pretty, possibly psychic Riley lands at the top of the list of suspects, Nick volunteers to find out whodunit. Only because he likes solving mysteries – not because he wants to flex his heroic muscles for the damsel in distress.All they have to do is figure out who pulled the trigger, keep a by-the-book detective with a grudge at bay, and deal with a stranger claiming he was sent to help Riley hone her psychic gifts. All before the killer discovers she''s a loose end that requires snipping.A must-read for fans of quirky romance stories and whodunit books, The Dead Guy Next Door showcases Lucy Score’s singular talent for crafting an exciting mystery with memorable, madcap characters – while weaving in a compelling love story for good measure!TropesRomcomParanormal Murder MysteryContemporary RomanceWhodunitClairvoyant FMCUnlikely DuoThe Riley Thorn Series:The Dead Guy Next DoorThe Corpse in the ClosetThe Blast from the PastThe Body in the Backyard

Davis Gates. Naked. Tossing her a handful of orgasms like he was on a lust-themed parade float. Innkeeper Eden has got it all. Well, mostly. She's cornered the hospitality market in Blue Moon, offering visitors a place to stay in her hippie-dippie hometown. Business is booming, she's close – but not too close – to family, and she's got her dogs and her friends to keep her company. Unfortunately, she also shares a property line with the crush who broke her teenage heart. Davis spends his days wrestling control of the family winery from his father's semi-retired hands. He doesn't have time for things like dating or dealing with his grudge-holding next-door neighbour. Besides, they're just the latest generation to participate in their families' fifty-year feud. When the Beautification Committee resorts to an unprecedented – and disastrous – matchmaking scheme, enemies Eden and Davis join forces to take them down. These two frenemies can survive being fake lovers for a few weeks if it means teaching their neighbours that all's not fair in love and war.

She doesn''t have time to deal with a big-city grouch who doesn''t remember being her first kiss ever. Especially not since he wants to dump a sheep named Stan on her. So not happening. No matter how cute—and pantless—Ryan is when he''s drunk.Besides, as soon as he solves his uncle''s problem, he''ll be on the first flight out of Blue Moon, never to return again.It will take a Winter Solstice Miracle or perhaps some matchmaking interference from the Beautification Committee to get these two to see eye-to-eye under the mistletoe…unless he''s the wrong Ryan after all.

When Charles I succeeded his father, he was similarly enthralled and made Buckingham his best friend and mentor. A dazzling figure on horseback and a skilful player of the political game, Buckingham rapidly transformed the influence his beauty gave him into immense wealth and power. He became one of the most flamboyant and enigmatic Englishmen at the heart of seventeenth-century royal and political life.With a novelist’s touch, Lucy Hughes-Hallett transports us into a courtly world of masques and dancing, exquisite clothes, the art of Rubens and Van Dyck, gender-fluidity, same-sex desire and appallingly rudimentary medicine.

When Charles I succeeded his father, he was similarly enthralled and made Buckingham his best friend and mentor. A dazzling figure on horseback and a skilful player of the political game, Buckingham rapidly transformed the influence his beauty gave him into immense wealth and power. He became one of the most flamboyant and enigmatic Englishmen at the heart of seventeenth-century royal and political life. With a novelist’s touch, Lucy Hughes-Hallett transports us into a courtly world of masques and dancing, exquisite clothes, the art of Rubens and Van Dyck, gender-fluidity, same-sex desire and appallingly rudimentary medicine. Witch hunts coexisted with Francis Bacon’s empiricism and public opinion was becoming a political force.

Nash sa so svojím utrpením nechystá nikomu zdôveriť. Jeho novej susede, inteligentnej a príťažlivej Line, však mračná nad jeho hlavou neunikli. Zvyčajne nemá rada, keď sa jej ľudia bez dovolenia dotýkajú, no pri Nashovi to z nejakého dôvodu neplatí. A všimol si to aj on. Ich vzájomná fyzická príťažlivosť je spaľujúca, jeho uzemňuje a ju núti premýšľať, či sa pre ten pocit oplatí riskovať. Škoda, že aj Lina má svoje tajomstvá a ak Nash zistí, prečo v skutočnosti prišla do mesta, určite jej to neodpustí. Okrem toho sa nikdy nevrhá do dlhodobých vzťahov. Nikdy.

If she misses her next deadline it's The End.

Donovan Cardona loves his nice, quiet hometown, and he's got some pretty strong feelings when it comes to a certain klutzy redhead too.But his gut says she's hiding something. Just when he starts to peel back those layers to get to the naked truth, the entire town loses its collective mind—and inhibitions. Can he save the girl from her past and the town from itself?
