'A long lost jade necklace. One chance to find it. And two hearts at risk.

'Izzie Davis might be broke but she will never accept charity. Which is a problem, because the cute guy she met visiting Maple Gardens Assisted Living could solve all her financial woes with a click of his fingers. Keeping her mom’s fees up to date takes almost all her meagre income but she's seen what money does to some people and will never seek out wealth.

'Bart Brown inherited more money than he knows what to do with, but the one person he’d love to spend it on happens to be a spitfire who sticks to her principles. The only way she’ll date him is if he promises he won’t ever spend money on her. His generous heart doesn't quite understand but she is worth the compromise.

'When the family heirloom Izzie's been desperate to buy back for her mom is up for auction, Bart wants to change the rules to help her. But will Izzie's principles mean more to her than love? Because suddenly there’s more at stake than a necklace.

'Part Cinderella retelling, part billionaire romance all wrapped up in a clean and sweet contemporary romance with a swoony happy ever after.'

'He needs a girlfriend. She needs a job. Pity they can't stand each other!

'Olivia loves working at Maple Gardens Assisted Living and adores the residents and their families. Apart from the annoying son of one her charges who spills his drink on her and doesn't even apologise. Her small act of revenge is satisfying... until she discovers who she just made an enemy of.

'Isaac wants nothing more than to expand Maple Gardens into other states and the invitation of a potential backer to visit for an important Christmas party is perfect. Except, Isaac lied about having a girlfriend and now she's expected to attend.

'Flying across the country together in a private jet is one thing. Pretending to be in love is quite another. But New York at Christmas time is about to work its magic.

'Part billionaire romance, part fake boyfriend, and a whole lot of enemies to lovers... all wrapped up in a clean and sweet contemporary romance with a swoony happy ever after.'

'She has the ultimate bachelor pad. He has white picket fences. A matchmaker's dream.

'Quinne is a social media influencer. Peter is the cook at Maple Gardens Assisted Living. They couldn't be more different.

'When Quinne's mother - a resident who loves to meddle - comes up with the idea of Quinne showcasing Maple Gardens, it is the last thing the busy and somewhat self-centred young woman wants to do. But Peter's ten-year-old daughter is obsessed with Quinne and persuades her to reconsider. Grumpy cook Peter is less than impressed but what can he do? He just works there and has enough on his plate being a newly single dad.

'It is one thing to spend time together because they have to. But as Quinne rediscovers her love of cooking, and Peter watches his daughter come out of her shell, they move past their differences. A long way past, as unexpected feelings grow.

'But when the fallout from an accident reminds them just how different they are, will the matchmaking skills of the Maple Gardens residents be enough to bring together this unlikely pair?

'Part opposites attract, part single dad, and an age gap... all wrapped up in a clean and sweet contemporary romance with a heartwarming happy ever after.'
