Brynn and Sebastian Hate Each Other: A Love Story
Bethany Turner
$16.99 $15.80They are everything the other despises. If only they didn’t need each other. Brynn Cornell is on top of the world as the newly crowned cohost of America’s number one morning program. But in an astoundingly fast U-turn, everything she’s clawed her way to the top for is in jeopardy when a hot mic catches her derisive commentary of Adelaide Springs, Colorado—the hometown that worships her. Now she has to go back home to charm the snot out of everyone and their mother to have any hope of salvaging her reputation as America’s Morning Ray of Sunshine. But it doesn’t take long to realize that winning over the town begins and ends with winning over one person: Sebastian Sudworth. On paper, it seems like Brynn and Sebastian would get on like a house on fire. They’re both journalists after all. But while Sebastian was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in International Reporting for his coverage of the crisis in South Sudan, Brynn’s crowning achievement involved reuniting the Hanson brothers for a gripping segment in which they showed viewers the most efficient way to cut a pineapple. The sooner the Reunion Tour of Groveling is over, the better. Beloved author Bethany Turner returns with a hilarious enemies-to-lovers rom-com, packed with snappy pop-culture references, earnest small-town politicians, and enough heart to make anyone want to go back for seconds.
The Do-Over
Bethany Turner
$16.99 $15.80Sometimes dreams come true. Other times, the best outcome begins with an epic fail. “Pitch-perfect comedic timing, a relatable heroine, and a refreshing sweetness elevate this novel above the sea of modern rom-coms.

Plot Twist
Bethany Turner
$16.99An aspiring screenwriter has a chance encounter with an actor on his way to an audition. Over the next ten years, she’ll write the story . . . but will he end up being the star? February 4, 2003, is just another day for Olivia Ross—a greeting card writer whose passion project is a screenplay of her own. After she and a handsome, struggling actor have a near-magic encounter in a coffee shop, they make a spontaneous pact: in ten years, after they’ve found the success they’re just sure they’re going to achieve, they’ll return to the coffeehouse to partner up and make a film together. The only problem? Olivia neglected to get the stranger’s name. But she doesn’t forget the date. For the next ten years, every February 4, Olivia has an exceptional day, full of coincidences and ironies. As men come and go and return to her life, and as she continues to write her screenplay, she still wonders about the guy from the coffee shop—the nameless actor she’s almost certain was Hamish MacDougal, now a famous member of the Hollywood elite. But a lot can happen in ten years, and while waiting for the curtain to rise on her fate, the true story of Olivia’s life is being written—and if she’s not careful, she’ll completely miss the epic romance playing out right before her eyes.

Secret Life of Sarah Hollenbeck
Bethany Turner
$16.00Becoming a Christian is the best and worst thing that has ever happened to Sarah Hollenbeck. Best because, well, that's obvious. Worst because, up to this point, she's made her very comfortable living as a well-known, bestselling author of steamy romance novels that would leave the members of her new church blushing. Now Sarah is trying to reconcile her past with the future she's chosen. She's still under contract with her publisher and on the hook with her enormous fan base for the kind of book she's not sure she can write anymore. She's beginning to think that the church might frown on her tithing on royalties from a "scandalous" book. And the fact that she's falling in love with her pastor doesn't make things any easier. With a powerful voice, penetrating insight, and plenty of wit, Bethany Turner explodes onto the scene with a debut that isn't afraid to deal with the thorny realities of living the Christian life.
