Olivia war schon immer ein Pechvogel. Doch als sie die Liebesbriefe ihres Exfreundes verbrennt und dabei ein ganzes Gebäude abfackelt, sitzt sie richtig in der Klemme. Liv muss bei ihrem Bruder einziehen, der mit dem Schrecken ihrer Kindheit zusammenwohnt, seinem besten Freund Colin. Inzwischen ein erfolgreicher Geschäftsmann ist Colin noch arroganter als früher, aber leider auch richtig heiß. Ablenkung von ihrem Gefühlschaos findet Olivia durch die SMS eines Unbekannten, die versehentlich auf ihrem Handy landen. Die sexy Nachrichten von Mr Wrong Number lassen ihre Knie weich werden. Und auch Mr Wrong Number findet die gewitzte Unbekannte unwiderstehlich. Bis er begreift, dass sie die kleine, nervige Schwester seines Mitbewohners ist …
Perfect for fans of Kasie West and Jenn Bennett, this “sweet and funny” (Kerry Winfrey, author of Waiting for Tom Hanks) teen rom-com follows a hopelessly romantic teen girl and her cute yet obnoxious neighbor as they scheme to get her noticed by her untouchable crush.
Perpetual daydreamer Liz Buxbaum gave her heart to Michael a long time ago. But her cool, aloof forever crush never really saw her before he moved away. Now that he’s back in town, Liz will do whatever it takes to get on his radar—and maybe snag him as a prom date—even befriend Wes Bennet.
The annoyingly attractive next-door neighbor might seem like a prime candidate for romantic comedy fantasies, but Wes has only been a pain in Liz’s butt since they were kids. Pranks involving frogs and decapitated lawn gnomes do not a potential boyfriend make. Yet, somehow, Wes and Michael are hitting it off, which means Wes is Liz’s in.
But as Liz and Wes scheme to get Liz noticed by Michael so she can have her magical prom moment, she’s shocked to discover that she likes being around Wes. And as they continue to grow closer, she must reexamine everything she thought she knew about love—and rethink her own ideas of what Happily Ever After should look like.

After yet another disastrous date, Hallie Piper decides it's time to grow up.

Agreeing that they are absolutely not interested in each other, Jack and Hallie realise that they're each other's perfect wing-person - and join forces in their searches for The One. They even place a wager on who can find romance first.

After living through a dumpster fire of a Valentine’s Day, Emilie Hornby escapes to her grandmother’s house for some comfort and a consolation pint of Ben & Jerry’s. She passes out on the couch, but when she wakes up, she’s back home in her own bed—and it’s Valentine’s Day all over again. And the next day? Another nightmare V-Day.
Emilie is stuck in some sort of time loop nightmare that she can’t wake up from as she re-watches her boyfriend, Josh, cheat on her day after day. In addition to Josh’s recurring infidelity, Emilie can’t get away from the enigmatic Nick, who she keeps running into—sometimes literally—in unfortunate ways.
How many days can one girl passively watch her life go up in flames? And when something good starts to come out of these terrible days, what happens when the universe stops doling out do-overs?
Isabella Shay is usually a very honest person. But when she’s running late for her first day at a dream job and the barista yells for “Amy” 3x with no answer, she does the unthinkable.
Izzy takes that PSL.
It’s the exact drink she ordered and paid for, only waaaay further ahead in the line, so she mutters “I’m Amy” and grabs the cup. But when she turns around and runs directly into the most attractive man she’s ever seen, spilling the drink all over his GQ shirt and tie, she ends up having the ultimate meet-cute. Sparks fly and things feel beyond promising until he says the words, “See you tomorrow, Amy.”
Uh, oh – she’ll definitely have to straighten him out the following day.
Only when she gets to her new office and meets the VP of her department, it is none other than Blake Phillips - the hottie from Starbucks. And the man might’ve been charming to “Amy,” but he is an arrogant grump to Izzy, an arrogant grump who dos not find her explanation funny at all.
MEET CUTE + GRUMPY/SUNSHINE + FRIENDS-TO-LOVERS = ACCIDENTALLY AMY
Hallie Piper will endlich ihr Leben in den Griff bekommen. Als sie heimlich aus dem Hotelzimmer eines One-Night-Stands schleicht, wird ihr klar: Zeit, erwachsen zu werden. Und weil dazu eine Beziehung gehört, meldet sie sich bei einer Dating-App an. Diese schlägt ihr ausgerechnet Jack Marshall vor, den Mann, mit dem sie besagte Nacht verbracht hat. Jack ist nicht nur unheimlich sexy, sondern bringt sie auch zum Lachen. Aber er kann nicht der Richtige sein, schließlich hatte er sich gerade erst von seiner Freundin getrennt, als es zu der leidenschaftlichen Nacht mit Hallie kam. Also gibt sie ihm via App eine Abfuhr, und die beiden schließen eine Wette ab: Wer zuerst die Liebe findet, gewinnt. Dumm nur, dass sie ihre Zeit lieber miteinander verbringen als mit der Suche nach dem Traumpartner …
When seventeen-year-old Bailey starts a new job at a hotel waterpark, she is less than thrilled to see an old acquaintance is one of her coworkers. Bailey met Charlie a year ago on the long flight to Omaha, where she moved after her parents’ divorce. Charlie’s cynicism didn’t mix well with Bailey’s carefully well-behaved temperament, and his endless commentary was the irritating cherry on top of an already emotionally fraught trip.
Now, Bailey and Charlie are still polar opposites, but instead of everything about him rubbing Bailey the wrong way, she starts to look forward to hanging out and gossiping about the waterpark guests and their coworkers—particularly two who keep flirting with each other. Bailey and Charlie make a bet on whether or not the cozy pair will actually get together. Charlie insists that members of the opposite sex can’t just be friends, and Bailey is determined to prove him wrong.
Bailey and Charlie keep close track of the romantic progress of others while Charlie works to deflect the growing feelings he’s developed for Bailey. Terrified to lose her if his crush becomes known, what doesn’t help his agenda is Bailey and Charlie “fake dating” in order to disrupt the annoying pleasantries between Bailey’s mom and her mom’s new boyfriend. Soon, what Charlie was hoping to avoid becomes a reality as Bailey starts to see him as not only a friend she can rely on in the midst of family drama—but someone who makes her hands shake and heart race. But Charlie has a secret—a secret that involves Bailey and another bet Charlie may have made. Can the two make a real go of things…or has Charlie’s secret doomed them before they could start?
Sucesso no TikTok, livro de Lynn Painter vai conquistar os fãs de comédias românticas com uma protagonista determinada a encontrar seu “felizes para sempre”
Elizabeth Buxbaum sempre soube que seu vizinho não seria um bom namorado. Apesar de todos acharem Wesley Bennett simpático e muito bonito, Liz tinha certeza de que, na verdade, ele era um chato de galochas.
Mas Michael Young era diferente. O amor de infância de Liz estava à altura dos protagonistas das comédias românticas que ela tanto gostava, só que havia se mudado para longe quando os dois ainda eram crianças. Dez anos depois, ele estava de volta, mais lindo e charmoso do que nunca.
Esbarrar com o garoto na escola foi como um sinal do universo. O último ano do ensino médio clamava por acontecimentos grandiosos, um baile inesquecível e momentos apaixonantes. Por isso, como uma boa romântica incurável, Liz estava determinada a fazer qualquer coisa para conquistar o verdadeiro amor. Até mesmo pedir ajuda ao vizinho irritante.
O plano era infalível: fazer com que Michael notasse sua existência e a convidasse para o tão sonhado baile de formatura. Mas à medida que Wes e Liz se aproximam, ela vai questionar tudo o que sabe sobre o amor e descobrir que talvez seu “felizes para sempre” seja surpreendente — e melhor do que ela poderia imaginar.
Diez años después, Liz está en su último año de instituto, una época que debería estar llena de hitos perfectos dignos de la gran pantalla, y necesita la ayuda de Wes. Michael, el chico por el que lleva colada toda la vida, acaba de mudarse de nuevo a la ciudad, y desgraciadamente está haciendo muy buenas migas con Wes. Lo que significa que, si Liz quiere que Michael se dé cuenta de que ella existe, y con suerte ser su cita en el baile de fin de curso, necesita la ayuda de su vecino.
Pero mientras Liz y Wes planifican el momento mágico del baile de fin de curso, ella se sorprende al descubrir que, en realidad, le gusta estar con él. Y mientras continúan acercándose, ella deberá reexaminar todo lo que pensaba que sabía sobre el amor, y replantearse sus propias ideas de cómo debería ser un «felices para siempre».
