A dating dare? It could turn out to be the perfect match or it could be worse than a slap on a sunburn. Me, little ol' Paisley Jones, envisioned glitz and glamour with my movie star fiancé until a humiliating, public scandal explodes in my life like damp confetti. I escape to the family cottage with an ocean view and am not looking for love until a dare and a crazy seagull send me next door. Griffin Sanders was a late-blooming goofball, but now, as a competitive surfer and business owner, not much stops him. However, when an injury keeps him out of the water, he's stuck on dry land. Turns out his teen crush is hiding out in the neighboring cottage. That would be yours truly, but I don't recognize him at first. Big waves. Big surprise. Quirky and independent, I never quite fit in the celebrity world. I'm not sure where I belong until I get on a surfboard. But it's hard to tell if the popular surfing instructor is just another guy seeking fame and fortune, the silly kid from my childhood summers, or someone I can ride the waves with. Will we take the plunge or will our affection for one another drop like the tide?

From the USA TODAY bestselling author of Sweet Thing and Nowhere But Here comes a love story about a Craigslist “missed connection” post that gives two people a second chance at love fifteen years after they were separated in New York City. To the Green-eyed Lovebird: We met fifteen years ago, almost to the day, when I moved my stuff into the NYU dorm room next to yours at Senior House. You called us fast friends. I like to think it was more. We lived on nothing but the excitement of finding ourselves through music (you were obsessed with Jeff Buckley), photography (I couldn’t stop taking pictures of you), hanging out in Washington Square Park, and all the weird things we did to make money. I learned more about myself that year than any other. Yet, somehow, it all fell apart. We lost touch the summer after graduation when I went to South America to work for National Geographic. When I came back, you were gone. A part of me still wonders if I pushed you too hard after the wedding… I didn’t see you again until a month ago. It was a Wednesday. You were rocking back on your heels, balancing on that thick yellow line that runs along the subway platform, waiting for the F train. I didn’t know it was you until it was too late, and then you were gone. Again. You said my name; I saw it on your lips. I tried to will the train to stop, just so I could say hello. After seeing you, all of the youthful feelings and memories came flooding back to me, and now I’ve spent the better part of a month wondering what your life is like. I might be totally out of my mind, but would you like to get a drink with me and catch up on the last decade and a half? M

It does NOT include falling head over heels for his best friend, Kyle. It’s a distraction, it’s pointless—Kyle is already dating the head cheerleader, Ruby—and Gideon doesn’t know what to do. Kyle finally feels like he has a handle on life. He has a wonderful girlfriend, a best friend willing to debate the finer points of Lord of the Rings, and social acceptance as captain of the basketball team. So when both Ruby and Gideon start acting really weird, just as his spot on the team is threatened, Kyle can’t quite figure out what he did wrong. Sandy Hall, the author of A Little Something Different, is back with her signature wit in this quirky and heartfelt LGBT YA novel.

All's fair in love and dares unless your friends dare you to find your Marriage Match. I met the perfect guy aka Mr. Right. Too bad he worked for a rival company on the other side of the country. And saying we'd met is a bit of a stretch. More like we had a string of flirty email exchanges. However, I can't say no to a dare...or our digital chats. When our companies merge, thankfully, I don't lose my job. The remaining (un)lucky employees are sent on a corporate wilderness survival retreat. When the bus leaves me behind with Mr. Wrong, it's certain disaster until I discover his identity. No way. Shaw Dawson worked hard to get to the top. Wronged by business partners and in relationships, he's cautious about who enters his trust triangle. He's the kind of guy to play it safe even though he feels a connection to me that's stronger than Wi-Fi. Yes way. Flirting with a guy from another company seems innocent enough until I learn he's my new (and very grumpy boss), making dating off-limits. Despite our proximity, distance grows between us. Will he redeem himself and prove that he's Mr. Right after all?
