Does anyone else not know what to do with candles when they're finished? I always am full of inspiration and want to reuse the jars, but also let's be realistic - I'm never doing that (do I own 5kg of soy wax? Yes, but shhh)

My bet is they formatted with atticus and since the update it's been doing weird stuff like that. Hoping it's fixed soon!

My final proof edits of Resorting to Love have me wondering whether I even know what a sentence is anymore.

Sometimes it's hard to ignore the feeling that we're living in the end times. At least in the end times I'll have my silly little romance books

I'm looking for all your recs of grumpy sunshine, where she's grumpy and he's a happy-go-lucky dude. I'm also looking for workplace romances, so if you know of any books that are both, I'd love it!

I reckon someone on here could make it big just posting lists of names authors can use in their books, because I can never find the hot guy names I need 😭

My MMC is a hot cat dad, and honestly, why do I see so few men who have cats in romance novels? Please send them all my way

Rule #1: Never fall for your best friend

Mia Davis has her life figured out. Then she inherits her birth family’s beloved ski resorts. They’re her last link to the family she never knew, and she's the only one who can save them from being turned into a soulless, money-making machine.

Thankfully, her best friend Will is a business consultant; exactly what she needs. And it would have been fine if it weren't for those sneaky little kisses that have Mia wondering if there's something more to their relationship than just friendship...

Save the resorts. Don't fall in love with Will.

Simple, right?

Don't fall in love with Will. Simple, right?

Rule #2: Never mix business with pleasure

Will Sinclair has been Mia's best friend since university over a decade ago. And after a kiss under the stars, Will can’t deny it anymore: he's in love with her.

Helping with the resorts is the right thing to do for his best friend, but being around her means it's getting harder and harder for him to push his feelings down. He wants to be there for herβ€”as a friendβ€”but if things keep going the way they are, he's not going to be able to hold back any longer.

Do the job. Don't tell Mia she's all he's ever wanted.

What could go wrong?
