The Holiday Honeymoon Switch (2024)
Julia McKay
"Can't choose between a sunny winter getaway or a classic small-town Christmas? You can have it all in Julia McKay's delightful novel The Holiday Honeymoon Switch. Holly and Ivy are best friends who trade trips after a cancelled wedding, and both find love, adventure, and community in this heart-warming tale perfect for the holidays. A big-hearted story filled with ride-or-die friendship and swoony romance, times two...best enjoyed with a cup of cocoa!"

Never Been Better (2024)
Leanne Toshiko Simpson
"Life after the psych ward combined with a destination wedding and secrets between friends can only lead to raw yet heartfelt hijinks in this delightful debut by Leanne Toshiko Simpson. Searing and honest, Never Been Better is that most rare of things - a novel that combines humor, heartache and hope in one page-turning package, with lyrical and wickedly funny writing in spades. Simpson is a writer to watch!"
