'Georgie Danners is a nerd and proud of it. She is also the proud owner of Bookish, a bookshop/cafe in the small Northern Tablelands town of Oxley Crossing. She loves all things books and movies and computer games and has a soft spot in her heart for one of Australia’s greatest exports, Connor Faulkes, aka Prince Charming.

'Connor Faulkes, movie star, is happy to spend the next six weeks with his Gran while she recuperates from a fall that resulted in a broken leg. It would give him an opportunity to have some down time before the filming on his next movie starts and he might even be able to squeeze in some rock climbing if he’s really lucky. What he did not expect was to run into, literally run into, a quirky woman who captures his heart with her adorable dorkiness and cute smile.

'But can the Prince Charming of the RomCom world really find the girl of his dreams in a shy, socially awkward bookshop owner who would rather live life vicariously through the characters between the pages she reads? Or is this budding romance destined to be a box office fail?'

'Kit Alexander, better known as The Wizard of Oz, was an international football star. He may have hit a bad patch there for a while, but he was clawing his way back to the top, right up until an injury benched him. With three weeks to kill and an invitation to a wedding Down Under, Kit's plans were on hold. He needed to keep his head down and let his body heal before they'd let him back on the pitch and that's exactly what he intended to do.

'Being invited to the hottest wedding of the season was a dream come true for Charlotte Fox. She'd never left her small town of Oxley Crossing in the twenty-eight years she'd lived there--doctor's visits and hospital stays didn't count. Now that she was out on her own for the first time in her life, she was determined to store up enough experiences and memories to last another twenty-eight years.

'A chance meeting in a bar late one night brought the two of them together. Kit would be leaving to go back to the UK and his career, and Charlie was only in the city for the wedding and a brief holiday before she had to go back to her life in Oxley Crossing. It was only meant to be a flirtation, a holiday fling, nothing serious. But it's all fun and games until someone falls in love.'

'It was summer in Oxley Crossing and Christmas was fast approaching. The very last thing Millie Campbell needed was a speeding ticket from the new sheriff–err sergeant–in town. Millie had never actually been given a ticket, speeding or otherwise, and it was a point of pride that she could talk her way out of anything…until she met Sergeant Roman Jamieson.

'Roman had heard all about Millie and her speedster ways and as the newest member of the local police force, it was his job to show his constables how it was done. He was confident in his ability to withstand her supposed charms…he’d faced down hardened criminals in the past and didn’t even blink…but he wasn’t as immune to Millie’s charms as he thought.

'Roman’s fifteen year old daughter signs him up to play the local Santa Claus in the Oxley Crossing Christmas festival and who should turn up to be his ever-helpful elf? The one woman who has taken an instant dislike of him, Millie Campbell.'
