The Wedding Girl - Sophie Kinsella




Add to Goodreads

At eighteen, in that first golden Oxford summer, Milly's best friends were Rupert and his American lover Allan. When Rupert suggested that she and Allan should get married, just so that Allan could stay in the country, it all seemed just a bit of fun -- and to make it seem real she dressed up in cheap wedding finery and posed on the steps of the registry office for photographs.

Ten years later, Milly is a very different person. Engaged to Simon -- who is wealthy, serious, and believes her to be perfect - she is facing the biggest and most elaborate wedding imaginable. Her dreadful secret is locked away so securely she has almost persuaded herself that it doesn't exist -- until, with only four days to go, her past catches up with her.

Chasing Daisy - Paige Toon








If you fall too fast, you just might crash...

Daisy has been dumped, unceremoniously jilted. Not by any ordinary guy, no... Daisy has a secret in her past that she won't even tell her best friend, Holly. She's given up on men - and on her own family. But life still has to be lived and where better to recover than as far away from home as possible.

Grabbing a chance to see the world, Daisy packs her bags and joins the team catering to the world's highest-paid, supercharged racing drivers on the Formula 1 Grand Prix circuit. From Brazil to Italy, from Melbourne to Monte Carlo, life passes in a dizzying whirlwind. But nothing - and no one - can stop Daisy from falling again... this time for a man who is prepared to risk his life, and his heart, for the sake of speed, danger and ultimate success.

If your boss was the hottest rock star on the planet, would you mix business with pleasure?

I'm Meg Stiles. This is my leaving party. And that song we're making a mockery of? That's written by one of the biggest rock stars in the world. And I'm moving in with him tomorrow.

Seriously! I am not even joking. Well, maybe I'm misleading you a little bit. You see, I haven't actually met him yet...

No, I'm not a stalker. I'm his new PA. His Personal Assistant. And I am off to La-La Land. Los Angeles. The City of Angels—whatever you want to call it—and I can't bloody believe it!

Celebrity PA to wild boy of rock Johnny Jefferson, Meg's glam new life in sun-drenched LA is a whirlwind of showbiz parties and backstage passes. Cool, calm Christian, in town to write his famous friend's biography, helps keep Meg's feet firmly on the ground. But with Johnny's piercing green eyes and a body Brad Pitt would kill for, how long will it be before she's swept right off them again?

It Had to be You - Susan Elizabeth Phillips




Add to Goodreads
Bagi Phoebe Somerville, tim football bernama Chicago Stars jelas bukan sebuah warisan yang glamor. Tapi itu tidak seberapa dibandingkan harus berhadapan langsung dengan si pelatih, Dan Celebow, yang tak hanya seksis tapi juga pemarah. Buruknya lagi, ternyata perasaan itu timbal-balik. Di mata Dan, Phoebe adalah bos yang paling dia benci setengah mati, tak lebih dari sekadar perempuan tak berotak yang bahkan sama sekali tak tahu-menahu tentang aturan permainan football. Benar-benar tak berguna!

Jadi, apakah ada penjelasan yang logis tentang ketertarikan Dan kepada Phoebe? Lalu, kenapa bagi Phoebe, bibir Dan yang kasar dan kurang ajar itu menyebalkan sekaligus menggoda untuk dicium? Api dan bensin ditakdirkan untuk saling menghancurkan, bukannya malah saling jatuh cinta... dan membakar satu sama lain dengan gairah yang tak bisa dijelaskan oleh kata-kata.

Ya Tuhan. Ini memang benar-benar kisah cinta yang tak masuk akal!
