Cleo Carter has sworn off sailors. After years of watching duty outrank family—and suffering one heartbreak too many—she’s done with sea life. But when she’s assigned to cover one of her father’s ship, Cleo finds herself trapped on board with the one woman she should’ve left on shore.

As scandal brews and sparks ignite below deck, River and Cleo must decide if their chemistry is just a shipboard fling—or the start of something worth risking everything for.

A heartwarming sapphic holiday romance filled with family, second chances, and a touch of Christmas magic.

Every December, Nicole Robinson returns to Hebden Bridge for a month of festive chaos with her siblings—her no-nonsense sister Beth and her kind-hearted brother Liam, who’s lived with a cognitive disability since a childhood accident. The Robinsons are loud, loving, and brimming with tradition… including the family mystery they’ve never solved: the origin of the sleigh bells they hear every Christmas Eve.

One tradition Nicole isn’t so fond of? Getting dumped by December. Her relationships always seem to fizzle out before the holidays, and this year is no exception. Beth even made her an Advent calendar to count down the days to the next inevitable breakup. But this Christmas, something’s different.

Niamh—Liam’s childhood best friend and the only person who stood by him after the accident—has returned to town after ten years away. Grown into a stunning, sharp-witted Irishwoman, she’s nothing like the girl Nicole remembers. And when their paths cross again, so does a long-buried spark.

Kim Richmond is done. Dumped again, and her holiday plans in ruins, she's one missed manicure away from a breakdown. Luckily, her best friend offers her an escape: two weeks at the luxurious Sapphire Hotel & Spa in the south of France. Vintage dresses? Packed. Killer heels? Sorted. Relaxation? Hopefully.

Then she sees Kim Richmond crying in the lobby.

One impulsive offer to share her suite later, and Helene’s carefully planned, no-nonsense holiday is suddenly full of chaotic charm, glittery heels, and unexpected chemistry.

The Wisdom of Bug

Now updated in a fully revised and expanded Second Edition — with new chapters, fresh scenes, and a brand-new festive cover.

Evelyn Crawford is officially having the worst run-up to Christmas in history. Overnight she’s become the reluctant CEO of her father’s multi-million-pound pet-supply empire, the board want her head on a platter, and she’s just caught her girlfriend tangled up with someone else. Christmas cheer? Absolutely not.

So when a scruffy little dog appears in the middle of her London office, Evelyn assumes she’s cracked under pressure.

Alyssa Fox, head of Four Paws Rescue, is equally fed up. Every year her centre is treated like a seasonal gift shop by people who think a dog is a stocking filler. This year she’s calling it quits—no adoptions, no time-wasters—and partnering with Crawford Pet Supplies to keep her dogs socialised and (hopefully) out of trouble.

What she didn’t plan for was a gorgeous, grumpy CEO who hates Christmas… or the rescue dog Bug, who immediately decides Evelyn is his new favourite human.

With dogs roaming the halls, the office descending into festive chaos, and one stubbornly cheerful rescue owner invading her world, Evelyn’s life becomes anything but orderly. And Alyssa—well, she’s always been a love-’em-and-leave-’em type... so why is falling for Evelyn starting to feel dangerously easy?

A cosy, heartwarming British Christmas romance filled with humour, dogs, unexpected sparks, and one very wise little pup determined to nudge two women together. Perfect for fans of feel-good sapphic romcoms, grumpy-sunshine pairings, and festive stories with real charm.

You’d think finding out your grandma runs the UK’s biggest crime syndicate would ruin your life. For Callie Compton, it just made things... complicated.

On her 18th birthday, Callie discovers her sweet, cardigan-wearing, church-going gran is actually Queen B—Britain’s most feared crime boss. Not exactly career goals.

So, she steals the gang’s little black book, runs for her life, and spends the next six years hiding out in a sleepy Swedish café, dodging assassins and wondering what could’ve been.

Then Daisy Simpson shows up. Callie’s ex–best friend. Her first love. And the only person who truly saw her.

Daisy’s got regrets, top-tier tracking skills (don’t ask), and one hell of a plan: take down Queen B together.

Now the two women must dodge vengeful ex-gang members, a flooded cave, a raging bull, and the kind of feelings that never really went away.

Can Callie and Daisy bring down a criminal empire... without falling apart (or in love) in the process?

The Misadventures of Callie Compton is a sapphic romantic comedy full of heart, hijinks, and high-stakes hilarity—perfect for fans of found family, slow-burn tension, and very bad grandmas.
