Thank you, more please : a feminist guide to breaking dumb dating rules and finding love / by Womble, Lily,author.;
"High achieving women have figured out every aspect of their lives -- except how to find love on their terms. The truth is that the conversation about women and dating is still stuck in the dark ages. Lily Womble, former top matchmaker turned dating coach, has seen it all. Most single women she meets are exhausted and have been taught to believe that they want too much, are too much, and that they need to settle to find partnership. In Thank You, More Please, Lily shares her proven, feminist framework that has helped millions of women create epic, joyful-as-fuck love lives that center around their own agency, aliveness, and power. Lily shows women how to revolutionize the dating process by defining and understanding their own preferences, trusting their intuition, and asking for exactly what they want. With her step-by-step system, she takes readers from overwhelmed and burnt out, to a playful, unapologetically confident dating life. Thank You, More Please will teach you how to brag on your awesomeness, be more picky, and free yourself from patriarchal dating standards to not only to have more fun dating, but to meet the love of your life"--

When her ex-fiancé goes missing and threatening packages begin arriving at her doorstep, Lexie has to figure out who is trying to target her and how it relates to her own dark past. Can she trust her instincts as a matchmaker or has she set herself up with her enemy?"--

The cheat sheet : a novel / by Adams, Sarah,1991-author.;
"The friend zone is not the end zone for Bree Camden, who is helplessly in love with her longtime best friend and extremely hot NFL legend, Nathan Donelson. The only problem is that she can't admit her true feelings, because he clearly sees her as a best friend with no romantic potential, and the last thing Bree wants is to ruin their relationship. But those abs ... Nope! Nothing but good old-fashioned, no-touching-the-sexiest-man-alive, platonic friendship for Bree. In any case, she has other things to worry about. After a car accident ended her chance at becoming a professional ballerina, Bree changed paths and now owns her own dance studio, with big dreams to expand it. But one more rent increase could mean the end of the studio entirely. Then, as usual, Nathan comes to the rescue and buys the entire building. A stubborn Bree is not happy about it and decides to rebel with a couple-okay, maybe more than a couple-of tequila shots. Then her plan backfires as she spills her deepest, darkest secret to a TMZ reporter. One viral video later, the world thinks Nathan and Bree are the perfect couple. Before they can really talk about her confession, Nathan's publicist proposes a big opportunity that could mean financial security for Bree. The catch? They have to pretend to be in love. For three whole weeks. What will happen when Bree gives in to the feelings she's been desperately hiding for so long, and could she be imagining that Nathan is actually enjoying it? Sarah Adams scores more than touchdowns in this exciting friends-to-lovers romantic comedy"--
