When her father dies suddenly, Gracie Cooper puts her dreams of life as an artist on hold to take over his Manhattan champagne shop. Soon, she discovers that not only are the shop's finances out of whack, but Sebastian Andrews — the handsome head of a giant corporation — is annoyingly trying to buy her out, which her father would never want. Instead of turning to her family and friends which would only worry them, Gracie finds comfort chatting to "Sir," a man she connected with on a blind dating app that prioritizes messages and common interest over real names and photos. Gracie is under the impression that she and her online boo have never met...when in reality he's someone that she knows and loathes. —Shyla Watson

When the opportunity arises for him to escort the wealthy Violet north, he devises a plan to seduce her and convince her to marry him.

Briseis can grow plants from seeds to blooms with a single touch, but she doesn't quite know how to control her gift. When her aunt dies and leaves her a dilapidated, rural New York estate, it comes with specific instructions, an apothecary, and a garden filled with some of the world's deadliest botanicals. And as strangers begin to arrive, asking for elixirs and such, Bri discovers that not only does she have a talent for making them, but that there is also more to her inheritance than she ever could have imagined. Not only is this one of the best books of the year, but you'll be anxiously awaiting book two from the second you finish this one. —Rachel Strolle
