Only because it's you : a novel / by Fisseha, Rebecca,1980-author.;
"Miz doesn't "do" marriage. Her parents have been separated for decades and half the weddings she was a bridesmaid in have ended in divorce. She is not the marrying kind. What Miz does "do" is go on dates with her casual-but-very-hot boyfriend, Daniel. ... That is, until Miz accidentally finds a ring box, with an actual engagement ring, in his gym bag. She panics, hides the ring, and immediately breaks up with Daniel. Then, when her best friend Kal, an aspiring actor, finds himself at risk of losing his visa, Miz is devastated. If Kal is forced to leave Toronto and return to Ethiopia, who knows when they'll see each other again? How will Miz survive without him? Suddenly, she knows what to do: She will marry Kal and sign immigration papers for him so that he can stay in Canada. He'll keep pursuing his dream of being an actor, and she'll keep her best friend. It's the perfect setup for them: a brief marriage of convenience. Between two people who are just friends. Right?"--

Take me home : a novel / by Sweeney, Melanie,author.;
"Hazel Elliot never looks back. If a door closes, she burns the whole house down.

Ash Campbell has been in love with Hazel since she dated his best friend in high school. Now, Ash and Hazel's relationship is limited to playful feuding over the best chair in their favorite coffee shop, but his attraction to the prickly girl from home has only grown stronger. When Ash's car breaks down just as family obligations pull him home, only one person can get him there on time. But Hazel has a condition: Everything between them must stay the same. And if it doesn't? She gets the coffee shop. So the frenemies endure bad music, inclement weather, and B&Bs with only one bed-and that's just the drive across Texas. When they finally arrive, Hazel must face that, in a small town, there's nowhere to run ... and maybe, for the first time, she's found a reason to stay"--

Yours truly / by Jimenez, Abby,author.;
"Dr. Briana Ortiz's life is seriously flatlining. Her divorce is just about finalized, her brother's running out of time to find a kidney donor, and that promotion she wants? Oh, that's probably going to the new man-doctor who's already registering eighty-friggin'-seven on Briana's 'pain in my ass' scale. But just when all systems are set to hate, Dr. Jacob Maddox completely flips the game ... by sending Briana a letter. And it's a really good letter. Like the kind that proves that Jacob isn't actually Satan. Worse, he might be this fantastically funny and subversively likeable guy who's terrible at first impressions. Because suddenly he and Bri are exchanging letters, sharing lunch dates in her 'sob closet,' and discussing the merits of freakishly tiny horses. But when Jacob decides to give Briana the best gift imaginable--a kidney for her brother--she wonders just how she can resist this quietly sexy new doctor ... especially when he calls in a favor she can't refuse"--

The arrangement / by Harding, Robyn,author.;
Natalie, a young art student in New York City, is struggling to pay her bills when a friend makes a suggestion: Why not go online and find a sugar daddy-- a wealthy, older man who will pay her for dates and even give her a monthly allowance? Lots of girls do it, Nat learns. All that's required is to look pretty and hang on his every word. Sexual favors are optional. Though more than thirty years her senior, Gabe, a handsome corporate finance attorney, seems like the perfect candidate, and within a month, they are madly in love. At least, Nat is ... Gabe already has a family, whom he has no intention of leaving. So when he abruptly ends things, Nat can't let go. But Gabe's not about to let his sugar baby destroy his perfect life. What was supposed to be a mutually beneficial arrangement devolves into a nightmare of deception, obsession, and, when a body is found near Gabe's posh Upper East Side apartment, murder.

Good time girl / by Gay, Heather,author.;
"In Bad Mormon, Heather Gay pulled back the veil on her orthodox adolescence and marriage in the Mormon Church, and the painful process of leaving it all behind. Becoming a successful business owner and reality TV star gave the single mom of three a second lease on life. After years of living in an insular bubble, Heather emerged bright-eyed, eager to take on the world. Now ... the mother of three proves that she isn't just a Bad Mormon; she's also a Good Time Girl. ... [Here] Heather recounts the humorous trysts, mishaps, and serendipitous success she's found as a life-long reveler in all things indulgent. Coming off the heels of the most-watched RHOSLC episode of all time, Heather gives readers a behind-the-scenes look at the receipts, proof, timeline, and screenshots of that fateful night in Bermuda. From illicit high school trips to Tijuana and awkward dates set up by her overzealous costars, Good Time Girl is a ... meditation on community, love, independence, womanhood, and ...second chances."--Provided by publisher.

Death of a neighborhood scrooge / by Levine, Laura,1943-;
Scotty Parker is a former child star who once played Tiny Tim, but now he's grown up into the role of neighborhood Scrooge. He cuts the wires on his neighbors' Christmas lights and tells local kids that Santa had a stroke. And his miserly, bah-humbug attitude lasts year-round--a fact known all too well by his current wife, his ex-wife, his maid, and many more. Scotty thinks he can stage a comeback with the screenplay he's working on (The Return of Tiny Tim: Vengeance Is Mine!), and Jaine's been reluctantly helping him edit it. So when Scotty is bludgeoned with a frozen chocolate yule log and the police start making a list of suspects and checking it twice, Jaine's name is unfortunately included. True, she's been under some stress, with Lance trying to set her up on dates and her fickle feline taking a sudden liking to someone else--but she's not guilty of murder. Now she just has to prove it, by using her gift for detection and figuring out who committed this holiday homicide.
