A fake relationship after a horrible one-night stand is anything but an act in this witty and heartfelt new romantic comedy by Ashley Herring Blake.Everyone around Iris Kelly is in love. Her best friends are all coupled up, her siblings have partners that are perfect for them, and her parents are still blissfully married. And she’s happy for all of them, truly. Iris doesn’t want any of that—dating, love, romance. She’ll stick to her commitment-free hookups, thanks very much, except no one in her life will just let her be. Everyone wants to see her settled down, but she holds firmly to her no dating rule. There’s only one problem—Iris is a romance author facing an imminent deadline for her second book, and she’s completely out of ideas.Perfectly happy to ignore her problems as per usual, Iris goes to a bar in Portland and meets a sexy stranger, Stefania, and a night of dancing and making out turns into the worst one-night stand Iris has had in her life. To get her mind off everything, Iris tries out for the lead role in a local play, a queer retelling of Much Ado About Nothing, but comes face-to-face with Stefania, whose real name turns out to be Stevie. Desperate to save face in front of her friends, Stevie asks Iris to play along as her girlfriend. Iris is shocked, but when she realizes the arrangement might provide her with some much-needed romantic content for her book, she agrees. As the two women play the part of a happy couple, lines start to blur, and they’re left wondering who will make the real first move....

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.

The world could do with a little more kindness and positivity and random acts of singing, don’t you think?Dear Reader, My name is Penelope, and while I may not be a real-life princess, I’ve been told I possess a certain fairy-tale heroine quality. I wield optimism as my weapon of choice, don amazing shoes and vintage hats whenever possible, and speak in musical references. All of which perfectly qualifies me to succeed in my new role as a marketing intern at the historic Darling House theater on the island of Skymar.Only . . . it seems this internship position is going to be a LOT bigger than I thought. The Gray family, who owns the theater, has been stuck in a rut of darkness ever since the loss of their matriarchs. Now all that’s left is a dying theater, a reclusive grandfather, three siblings, and an adorable seven-year-old girl who desperately needs some pixie-dust magic.So that’s what this story is about. My plans to save the theater! (Plans that, somehow, keep being stolen by a local competitor.) And an anonymous online theater troupe. And two single brothers who may be vying for this American girl’s heart . . . until they’re not (or maybe they just want me for my ideas too). And a dream job offer that will require me to make a truly heart-wrenching decision. I may not excel at finishing stories, but I promise to see this one through to its happily ever after.Positively,Penelope“What do you get when you combine a lovable heroine with characters who have mastered the art of witty banter?
