Emma (Classic Book By You)

As Jane Austen states in the opening few words, Emma Woodhouse is handsome, clever and rich. The trouble is…she knows it. Her neighbour Mr Knightley does his best to stop her from making an idiot of herself, but it just doesn’t occur to Emma that she could ever be wrong. Emma believes that her new friend Harriet, who is of questionable birth, would be the perfect match for the very respectable vicar, and she is also delighted to hear the rumours that the girl she hates is interested in her best friend’s husband. Mr Knightley thinks a good dose of falling in love would sort Emma out. It looks like he’s about to get his wish.

Sense & Sensibility (Classic Book By You)

Things are bad enough for Mrs Dashwood and her daughters when Mr Dashwood suddenly drops dead, but their situation doesn’t exactly improve when their daughter in law talks their brother out of giving them enough money to live on. Marianne likes a bit of drama and tragedy to spice up her life, but her elder sister Elinor can see they’re in deep dog poo. Then some random cousin offers them a home out of nowhere, separating Elinor from the guy she fancies and throwing Marianne into the path of a guy she should probably stay well away from.

Pride & Prejudice (Classic Book By You)

When the rich, single Mr Bingley arrives in the neighbourhood, Mrs Bennet is determined to get at least one of her five daughters married off. She becomes even more hopeful when Bingley’s even richer friend Mr Darcy shows up, but whilst Mr Bingley and Jane Bennet do seem to be instantly smitten, Mr Darcy makes a bad first impression on Elizabeth when she overhears him saying she’s not exactly hot. Throw in a couple of tarty younger sisters and some lush young officers, and this classic book isn’t nearly as boring and inaccessible as you might think.

Hot Blooded (Same Sex Romance By You, M/M)

Aaron is a university professor who spends a lot of his time in the library. Chris is a vampire who also spends a lot of time in the library. A meeting between them seems inevitable, even before that bookshelf nearly crashes down on Aaron’s head, and Chris demands a kiss as a reward for saving him. Soon, the two men are crazy about each other (yes, this is a gay story, look away now if you’re prejudiced), but for some reason Aaron doesn’t understand, this sexy, mysterious stranger keeps holding back.

Wedding Favors (Romance By You)

Jade and Gareth are getting married (lucky Jade!) and Sophie has agreed to make the favours as a favour (genius title for a very funny book). Gareth’s friend Kenneth, a 911 operator and general doormat (but such a cute one), is housesitting for Gareth. Sophie does her best to deny the instant attraction between her and Kenneth, but even her shopping trolley can’t resist him.

Tropical Treasure (Romance By You)

Sophie’s first meeting with Gareth takes place in the bedroom.

Not like that. They fight over who’s going to sleep in the best room, but as soon as one of them actually wins the argument, Jade walks in and tells them she was here first. But Sophie and Gareth have sized each other up and decided they like what they see. And considering they’re spending the next few weeks on a tropical island without many clothes on, it’s fair to assume they’re going to see quite a lot of each other.

Love's Next Door (Romance By You)

Sophie returns to her old home after a year away and decides to welcome herself home by playing a little prank on her best friend and childhood sweetheart, Gareth. She isn’t the least bit attracted to him now, of course she isn’t, though she absolutely can’t stand that tart he’s sleeping with, but she still enjoys embarrassing him half to death and generally making life difficult for him. As for Gareth, the feeling is absolutely mutual.
