The Smart One and the Pretty One by Claire LaZebnik

In this “witty and stylish” novel, two sisters take on modern relationships — and find a suitor in a jokingly arranged marriage (Holly Peterson, bestselling author of The Manny).

When Ava Nickerson was a child, her mother jokingly betrothed her to a friend’s son, and the contract the parents made has stayed safely buried for years. Now that still-single Ava is closing in on thirty, no one even remembers she was once “engaged” to the Markowitz boy. But when their mother is diagnosed with cancer, Ava’s prodigal little sister Lauren comes home to Los Angeles where she stumbles across the decades-old document.

Frustrated and embarrassed by Ava’s constant lectures about financial responsibility (all because she’s in a little debt. Okay, a lot of debt), Lauren decides to do some sisterly interfering of her own and tracks down her sister’s childhood fiance.

When she finds him, the highly inappropriate, twice-divorced, but incredibly charming Russell Markowitz is all too happy to re-enter the Nickerson sisters’ lives, and always-accountable Ava is forced to consider just how binding a contract really is . .

Light Up The Nightby Weston Parker

Reckless. That’s what they call me.

I rush into burning building to save lives, and I wish it was for a just cause.

It’s not. It’s to prove that I’m worthy of love.

A messed-up knee, and my dreams of being in the NFL are gone.

I’m fearless when it comes to fighting back death. That’s not what f*cks me up.

It’s living that gets me.

The last thing I need in my life is a woman, no matter how bad I want one.

And yet, this one has me pacing the floor.

The single mom who owns my crew’s favorite restaurant is sweet, loving, and hot as hell.

It’s not that easy, though. She’s lost too much in her life to give out free chances to men like me.

But I’m not asking for a chance.

I’m taking it.

Every Good Girl Deserves a Bad Boy. ~ Weston This is a stand-alone story in a series of firefighters at the same firehouse. Enjoy the HEA!
