Seat Mates by Anna Harbom

After a very road-ragey airport meet-cute (meet-rage?), Daisy and Charlie find themselves sitting next to each other on a plane to D.C. Once they work past their initial animosity, they find themselves spilling much more than they intended to each other. (And there is some JUICY gossip that's revealed later.)

They also happen to be staying at the same hotel, which means they can continue their flirtation over the weekend of his work conference and her mom's wedding, which is a fraught topic for Daisy. Charlie offers himself up as her date for the wedding so she can avoid an ex and have a buffer with her...difficult mother.

Daisy really needs to confront her issues that all happen to be coming to a head at this wedding. But when Charlie gets tangled up in them, can she keep him as her one lifeline away from them?

Seat Mates is Anna Harbom’s debut rom-com, and it's available on KU now!

Years in the Making by Megan McSpadden

Nellie’s doing great and everything’s falling into place for her--except for her love life. She never got closure on the guy she fell for one summer who seemed perfect and then ghosted her out of nowhere, and she hasn't been able to find something like that since then. But now that guy is back in her life via their mutual friends and they’re going to be spending the summer in a tiny town up north together. Now that she's seen him again, she’s TOTALLY over him...right?

Teddy has never forgiven himself for leaving Nellie without any explanation all those years ago. He ran all over the world to escape his grief and regret, but now that he’s back, he’s determined to show her that they’re meant to be.

Banter, second-chance romance, small town meddling, lots of dogs, and Megan’s fearlessness into diving into hard emotions = Years in the Making. It’s out now in KU!

Discretion and Avarice by Mary Alice Alexander

This one is playing with some different what-if scenarios for Pride and Prejudice: Darcy and Elizabeth are younger, Darcy's parents are alive, and Darcy is the youngest of three, with a wastrel older brother Andrew who's the heir to Pemberley. Without having the riches and responsibilities and pride of the heir, Darcy can approach Elizabeth with a lot more openness, and they fall for each other. But Darcy isn't established in a career and can't support a wife.

But Andrew's vices are catching up to him, and the Darcy parents have ensured that our Darcy is in control of the money and Pemberley. Elizabeth, meanwhile, also has to care for her family, who is on the brink of ruin (but not because of the sister you expect!). Can Darcy and Elizabeth ever manage to be together when Darcy's responsibilities (without the title or the money) and Elizabeth's family are keeping them apart?
