A shimmering, joyful new novel about a pair of opposites with the wrong thing in common, from #1 New York Times and Sunday Times bestselling author Emily Henry ----- Daphne always loved the way her fiancé Peter told their story. How they met (on a blustery day), fell in love (over an errant hat), and moved back to his lakeside hometown to begin their life together. He really was good at telling it... right up until the moment he realized he was actually in love with his childhood best friend Petra. Which is how Daphne begins her new story: Stranded in beautiful Waning Bay, Michigan, without friends or family but with a dream job as a children's librarian (that barely pays the bills), and proposing to be roommates with the only person who could possibly understand her predicament: Petra's ex, Miles Nowak. Scruffy and chaotic - with a penchant for taking solace in the sounds of heart break love ballads - Miles is exactly the opposite of practical, buttoned up Daphne, whose coworkers know so little about her they have a running bet that she's either FBI or in witness protection. The roommates mainly avoid one another, until one day, while drowning their sorrows, they form a tenuous friendship and a plan. If said plan also involves posting deliberately misleading photos of their summer adventures together, well, who could blame them? But it's all just for show, of course, because there's no way Daphne would actually start her new chapter by falling in love with her ex-fiancé's new fiancée's ex... right? ----- 'One of my favourite authors' Colleen Hoover, It Ends With Us 'The master of witty repartee' Daily Mail 'Emily Henry never fails to deliver great banter and a romance to swoon over' Taylor Jenkins Reid, Daisy Jones and the Six 'I've loved every single one of her books more than the previous, to the point that I cannot wait to see what her next title will do to me!'

A swoony, steamy, STEM romance in which two curators at a science museum—a handsome but grumpy astronomer and an anxious but sunshine-y entomologist—realize they are the perfect match. Equal parts nerdy banter and fiery tension, it’s perfect for fans of Ali Hazelwood and Tessa Bailey. Millie was never one to take the expected path. She's an entomologist who loves her job as a natural science curator, inspiring museum visitors every day. It's her dream to take a larger role in the planning of her department, so when a director position opens up, she is determined not to let anything distract her from her goals. Especially her grumpy coworker with his permanent scowl, electric blue eyes, and nerdy astronomy ties. . . . Not that she’s spent much time noticing any of those things. Finn doesn’t mean to glare at everyone, but he’s juggling his role at the museum, navigating the grief of losing his sister, attempting to make his nieces smile, and trying not to ruin dinner for the fifth night in a row. He can't afford to let anything slip, and certainly doesn't need anything more on his plate. Millie literally stumbling into him with her bright smile and sunny optimism, is the last thing he needs. They want nothing to do with each other. But with Finn on the interview committee, avoidance is impossible. And Millie soon realizes it's one thing when a job is on the line. It's quite another when it's her heart.

About the Author As long as she can remember Cork native Delia O'Callaghan wrote in her journal daily, transcribing her thoughts and whatever happened to be going on in her life, and like many people, always had a romantic notion of someday writing a novel. Then in 2008 that day came. While living in Boston, U.S.A. she joined a creative writers workshop at the Boston Centre for Adult Education. Taking on board the experts advice to write about what she knew, Delia started a novel about an Irish girl living and working illegally in Boston. The following year, Delia, took a trip back to Ireland, in a disastrous twist of faith which turned her life upside down she found herself locked up in the San Diego Correctional Facility. Ironically, although Delia's worst nightmare came to fruition, she now had the new material she desperately needed (a story she couldn't make up) and Honeysuckle to Handcuffs was born. In 2012 Delia O'Callaghan was one of the finalists in the inaugural Irish Writers Centre Novel Fair competition. She lives in Cork where she is working on her second novel her working conditions and surroundings are now much improved. Product Description How far will you go for true love? In this humorous memoir, author Delia O’Callaghan wonders if she took it too far. When the Boston-based Irishwoman meets the American, Frank, she can’t believe her luck. He’s everything any girl could wish for: rich, charming, handsome and fun. Whisked up into a world of ritzy restaurants and jet set living, it looks like all of Delia’s dreams are set to come true - that is, until they go to Ireland for her sister’s wedding and she tries to return without a Green Card.At the airport, US customs stamps “Denied Entry” on her passport. She is left stranded in Ireland watching Frank return to the US without her. Determined to get back to the love of her life, Delia devises a hare-brained scheme: if she can’t get into America a legitimate way, then she’ll do what hundreds of thousands of people do each year: she’ll sneak-in through the California-Mexican border. “What’s the worst that could happen... right?” she asks herself, half-heartedly. But the plan goes wrong. So wrong, in fact, that Delia finds herself locked up in the San Diego Correctional Facility with a foul-mouthed, religious, drug-trafficking, yet protective, lesbian cellmate, Teresa. Then, there is Officer Lopez: the six-foot-two prison guard, identifiable as a woman only through her lack of an Adam’s apple. How is Delia going to cope? Will the Irish-American romance continue? Honeysuckle to Handcuffs is the hilarious, fish-out-of-water memoir of an Irish woman’s journey to find a soul-mate. She discovers over the course of nearly a month in jail and a series of disastrous but comical events that there might be more to life than Rolexes, fancy cocktails and fine dining.If you want a humorous memoir and insightful journey on the cost of love, click "Buy Now" and pick up the book you won't want to set down.

Joss wrote a book you'll be sad to finish.' - Autumn Woods, Sunday Times bestselling author of Nightshade 🍂 Second Chance 🍂 Forced Proximity 🍂 Friends to Lovers 🍂 Actress/Chef 🍂 All The Angst🍂 Slowburnnnn ______________________________ June Wood has nothing left to lose. With her hit TV show cancelled, and no acting jobs lined up, being lured back to New York by a mysterious email was easy. Thanks to a clause in her former landlord's will, June and her old roommate, Adam Harper, now own the multimillion-dollar property-or they will in a month, once the paperwork is signed. June and Adam are stuck together for four weeks. Which would be fine, if it wasn't for the fact that they haven't spoken in five years. But this is the opportunity of a lifetime, and once it's over, she can return to LA and forget all about Adam, New York and everything that went wrong in their friendship. Through shared meals and late-night conversations, old wounds and long-buried sparks resurface. It soon becomes strikingly clear that June and Adam have unfinished business.
