Remind Me Again by BriAnn Danae
Over the past few years, Cyren has been existing rather than truly living, giving up on pursuing anything beyond survival. Grief changed the woman she once was and dimmed her dreams in the process. Moving back to her hometown was never meant to be permanent, but somehow, loneliness and healing led her into the arms of a man who should have only been an experience.
Fresh out of prison and navigating the expectations tied to his family’s legacy, Heavy is balancing grief, loyalty, and a lifestyle that no longer fits him but isn’t easy to walk away from. Although his focus should be on maintaining everything around him, he can’t ignore the peace he finds in Cyren. Possessively, Heavy claims her as his, unaware of what comes with loving a woman still trying to discover herself beyond her pain.
Sometimes people enter your life to change everything. Other times… they remind you of the person you were before heartbreak, grief, and survival convinced you to become somebody else.

Zara Banks is thirty-four years old, twelve years senior flight attendant, and absolutely not interested in complications. She has watched three colleagues walk straight into Section 7.4 and walk out the other side with broken careers and broken hearts. She knows better.

The kind of man who arrives early, asks the right questions, and looks at Zara like he already knows she is the most important person in any room she walks into.

Across domestic routes and a sixteen-hour inaugural nonstop to Lagos, through a two-day diversion in Accra and a weather delay that strands them both in Lisbon, the distance between Captain and Ms. Banks gets smaller and smaller — until it disappears entirely.
But this is a small industry. Someone is always watching. And when a conduct report lands on HR's desk, both Zara's twelve-year record and Marcus's career are on the line.
What Zara doesn't know yet is that Marcus submitted his transfer application three weeks before the report. Before Lisbon. Before Lagos. Before anyone forced his hand.

Reply All: A Spicy Office Rom/Com by Lovely Winters
In a corporate jungle designed to erase her, Denim Garrett is about to start a mutiny, one unhinged email at a time.
Denim is done. She’s officially finished with the soul-crushing open-floor plan, the meaningless “synergy” meetings, and the coworkers who think it’s acceptable to eat a piece of every single donut in the box. Under the cover of an anonymous “ghost account,” she starts sending razor-sharp, unfiltered emails that skewer the office culture and demand the sanity she’s been denied.
She thinks she’s a digital ninja. She thinks she’s untouchable.
Enter Deacon Thomas: a high-stakes security consultant with a reputation for being a cold, tactical genius. He doesn't just find glitches; he finds the people behind them. He’s been hired to hunt down the corporate saboteur, and he’s never met a firewall he couldn't crack or a secret he couldn't expose.
But when Deacon starts hunting the "Ghost," he doesn't find a disgruntled IT nerd—he finds the woman who has been driving him crazy since his first day on the job.
As the hunt for the Ghost heats up, so does the chemistry in the breakroom. Deacon discovers that the woman behind the keyboard isn't just a troublemaker; she’s his equal, his chaos, and—to his own annoyance—the only person who can make him forget to check his spreadsheets.
When the truth finally breaks the surface and the corporate higher-ups demand blood, Deacon faces an impossible choice: uphold the reputation he’s spent a lifetime building, or burn his own world to the ground to save the woman who keeps sending emails about coworkers’ bad habits to the entire distribution list.
Spicy, cynical, and laugh-out-loud funny, The Ghost of Cromwell Inc. is a story of rebellion, office wars, and a love so intense that Deacon might actually have to learn how to share his snacks.
Are you ready to see who wins when the tech god meets the office ghost? (Spoiler: It’s the one with the most creative insults.)
