A playful romantic comedy featuring dueling delis, fake dating, a shockingly awesome ex, and just the right amount of amnesia&“[A]…
delightfully tropey rom-com . . . This is a sweet confection.&”—Publishers WeeklyEllie Greco wishes she weren&’t stuck in Milborough. For a few brief, shining years, she escaped her hometown to pursue her dream career—designing beautiful, elaborate costumes for theater—until her father's death five years ago called her home to run the family's decades-old deli. Yes, she loves the place, but she&’d always thought she was meant for more exciting things than stocking the right tinned fish. But when Ellie hears that a local landlord is planning to rent to Mangia, the glitzy gourmet food department store, the very existence of Greco&’s Deli is suddenly in jeopardy.She tries to plead her case to Theo Taylor, scion of the property management firm that is about to put her out of business, but their meeting goes from bad (it&’s not her fault he&’s infuriating) to worse (no one expects the ceiling to literally fall in).With Theo out cold, Ellie panics and claims to be his fiancée . . . and almost passes out herself when amnesia means Theo seems to actually believe her. Soon, the effects of the head injury wear off, but Theo proposes that their &“engagement&” stick around. If they manage to convince enough people, they might both get what they want: an end to the Mangia deal. Ellie doesn&’t trust him (after all, if Theo Taylor wants it, how can it be good for her?) but seeing no other option, she reluctantly agrees.And miraculously, the fake engagement seems to be working—even Ted, Theo&’s shrewd, cold father seems convinced—that is, until Sam, Theo&’s ex-fiancée, reappears on the scene. Not only does she see through their ruse, but she proposes an arrangement of her own, forcing Ellie to decide between a blossoming friendship, her family legacy, and the burgeoning romance she frankly never asked for.By Morgan Bridges. 2023

As summer draws to a close, her dream job and the perfect guy are both within reach. Her salty seaside hometown might be the key to Effie&’s sweet ending...if she can learn to let her heart lead the way in time.By Sarah Adler. 2024

and The Good Part"A sincere and sincerely funny romance."—Alix E. Harrow, New York Times bestselling author of Starling HouseA clever con woman must convince a skeptical, sexy farmer of his property's resident real-life ghost if she's to save them all from a fate worse than death, in this delightful new novel from the author of Mrs. Nash's Ashes.Fake spirit medium Gretchen Acorn is happy to help when her best (read: wealthiest) client hires her to investigate the unexplained phenomena preventing the sale of her bridge partner&’s struggling goat farm. Gretchen may be a fraud, but she'd like to think she&’s a beneficent one. So if "cleansing" the property will help a nice old man finally retire and put some much-needed cash in her pockets at the same time, who's she to say no?Of course, it turns out said bridge partner isn't the kindly AARP member Gretchen imagined—Charlie Waybill is young, hot as hell, and extremely unconvinced that Gretchen can communicate with the dead. (Which, fair.) Except, to her surprise, Gretchen finds herself face-to-face with Everett: the very real, very chatty ghost that&’s been wreaking havoc during every open house. And he wants her to help ensure Charlie avoids the same family curse that's had Everett haunting Gilded Creek since the 1920s.Now, Gretchen has one month to convince Charlie he can&’t sell the property. Unfortunately, hard work and honesty seem to be the way to win over the stubborn farmer—not exactly Gretchen's strengths. But trust isn&’t the only thing growing between them, and the risk of losing Charlie to the spirit realm looms over Gretchen almost as annoyingly as Everett himself. To save the goat farm, its friendly phantom, and the man she's beginning to love, Gretchen will need to pull off the greatest con of her life: being fully, genuinely herself.&“Sarah Adler nails the ultimate rom-com alchemy.&”—Carley Fortune, New York Times bestselling author of Every Summer After and Meet Me at the LakeBy Janet Dawson. 2017
