Not Quite by the Book: A Novel by Julie Hatcher
Over 7,100 5-Star Reviews!
A bookstore owner discovers that life as a recluse isn’t for everyone in this sharp yet sweet novel about how sometimes you must abandon the quest for love to find your true passion.
Emma Rini is in a rut so deep she could shelve books there. While her sister awaits her first baby and her parents embark on retirement adventures, Emma stays put among the stacks of the family bookshop.
She can’t remember her last vacation—or romance that wasn’t a disappointment. When her parents assume she’ll take over the store without pause, Emma decides to escape…to the nineteenth century. Channeling her favorite poet recluse, Emily Dickinson, she rents a crumbling manor outside Amherst to learn how to be quietly, blissfully alone.
But solitude isn’t simple. She can’t start a fire or stop the bunnies from devouring the garden. She’s constantly sparring with the grumpy-hot architect restoring the house—and receiving mysterious floral messages from a secret admirer.
As the outside world keeps intruding, Emma begins to question what she truly wants. Will she forgo love for the family legacy—or finally become the bold heroine of her own story?

Runaway Groomsman by Meghan Quinn
Over 13,000 5-Star Reviews!
Hollywood screenwriter Sawyer Walsh knows a great love story when he sees one—but when it comes to real life romance, he’s a disaster.
Which is how he ends up standing at the altar… watching his ex-girlfriend marry his famous best friend. The pressure, the heartbreak, the cameras—it’s too much. So Sawyer does what any self-respecting leading man wouldn’t: he bolts, leaving a stunned congregation and viral headlines behind.
Hiding out in the small town of Canoodle, California, Sawyer checks into the Canoodle Cove Cabins, run by Fallon Long—a determined woman trying to save her family business. Overworked and underfunded, Fallon has no patience for Hollywood types, especially charming ones with reputations. But Sawyer surprises her at every turn, pitching in where he can and showing her a side of himself no one else seems to see.
As Fallon inches closer to restoring the cabins—and Sawyer rediscovers what really matters—their connection deepens into something real. But with Fallon’s family depending on her and Sawyer’s past catching up fast, Canoodle might be just a stopover… unless love decides to rewrite their story.
