Love Lines Series

Could her seatmate be her soulmate? A discount bus ride turns into a race against the clock (and some serious yearning) in this edge-of-your-seat romance from the bestselling author of Ready or Not and Promise Me Sunshine—first time in print in the U.S.!

Gwen has exactly 5 hours and 10 minutes to get from Boston to New York City for the professional opportunity of a lifetime disappears. Her only travel option? The second-to-last seat on a discount bus. Across from the bathroom. Wearing last night’s clothes (don’t ask). All worth it if she can make it in time.

Her nerves almost get the best of her, but then there he is, sitting down in the seat next to her. Tall. Friendly smile. Bright indigo streak in his brown hair. The perfect distraction. Turns out he’s on his way to reconnect with an old flame. The one that got away. They can both make it on time—just barely—if the traffic keeps flowing.

Playing road-trip games, avoiding calls from his mother, and effortless conversation keep them from clockwatching . . . until the bus breaks down. And Gwen’s seatmate turns into her copilot as they wrangle a ride in a car three decades old. And hit all the traffic. And oh, Lord, the detours. And somehow she ended up careening cross-town on the handlebars of a Citi Bike carrying a box of kittens. (Yeah, don’t ask.)

He’s her hero every step of the way . . . and she might be falling for him. But what happens when they reach their final destinations?

A booty call gone wrong turns into the most amazing conversation ever. Now can she tell him who she really is? A charming romance from the bestselling author of Ready or Not and Promise Me Sunshine—first time in print in the U.S.!

It’s officially booty o’clock and Jessie is alone again in her kitchen, choking down a slice of terrible chocolate cake…and she’s pretty sure she just got drunk texted by the man she has a ginormous crush on.

She’s been daydreaming about Eliot Hoffman’s dimples for two months, and even though she’s sure this was a mistake on his end, it doesn’t mean it’s not an opportunity on hers.

It’s the middle of the night, and she just wants to talk to him. So she texted him back. And then somehow they keep talking . . . ALL NIGHT. They’re both insomniacs, so talking all night soon turns into talking EVERY night. And talking about nothing soon turns into talking about something. And here they go from in-depth analysis of reality TV to her relationship with her family, to his amazing artwork. There’s no topic they don’t cover . . .

Except for who she really is. It’s the only question of his she won’t answer.

As Jessie’s crush turns into an avalanche of Eliot, she thinks of him all the time now. But if he knew who she was, the entire house of cards they’ve built this relationship on would come toppling down. She wants him to be hers, but they might never be more than just a sweet dream . . .

The longest customer service hold in history leads to a love connection that no one could have called in this laugh-out-loud romance from the bestselling author of Ready or Not and Promise Me Sunshine—first time in print in the U.S.!

Paints her toes. Picks up the wrong coffee and bagel order. Drives from Brooklyn to Jersey in traffic so slow she want to tear her hair out. It’s amazing all the useless things Vera can accomplish while on hold for three hours with customer service. Three hours when she should be getting the Date-in-a-Box website ready to launch at the big business expo in a few days.

Except her shiny new website is glitching, and her inner rage-monster is ready to scorch some earth…when he finally picks up. Not the robot voice she expected but a real live human named Cal. He’s surprisingly helpful and really knows his stuff, even if he’s a little awkward…in an adorable way.

And suddenly she’s flirting with him? And it seems like he’s flirting back. And suddenly it’s been hours, and they’re still on the phone talking and ordering each other takeout while he troubleshoots her website. And suddenly they’re exchanging numbers and sending texts and DMs every day, leaving voice mails (who even does that anymore?!). And suddenly Vera’s wondering if it’s possible for two people to fall in love at first talk.

Because she’s falling…hard.
