six-ty for-ty rule (noun): a deal you make with your pain-in-the-butt client, when hating him starts to feel a little too good. Jude Holland has slogged it for years at a chance to land a coveted job designing the city's most breathtaking restaurants and nightclubs. And when a spot opens up on her firm's design team, her boss makes her a deal: design Theo Jordan—the firm's biggest client—a new restaurant, convince him to renew his contract with the company, and the job is hers. If only he'd play along. Theo is infamous for three very specific things: he's a hot-shot young chef-turned-restaurateur, a thorn-in-your-side client, and the kind of attractive that makes you wonder which kind of psychedelics the great maker was taking, when he created him. Not that Jude notices. She's too busy sticking to the plan, and it helps that he's a total ass, anyway. That is, until a steamy business trip leads to a very different deal between these enemies, who suddenly can't seem to keep their hands off each other. Sixty percent of the time, they’d indulge those funny, fluttering feelings that seem to manifest whenever they’re together. The rest of the time? They’d be nothing but professional. It doesn’t take Theo long to realize that’s easier said than done. But with a restaurant launch and a dream promotion on the line—not to mention a workplace rival hell-bent on ruining her career—Theo only has a handful of weeks to convince Jude to make that sixty percent full-time. The Sixty/Forty Rule is a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers workplace romance between a sunshine commercial designer and her grumpy client. It has a healthy dose of spice and a happily ever after. It is the first book in the Sunset Landing series of standalone reads.

The second book in the Emerald Lake series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Elsie Silver.

Can a human woman and a hunky minotaur meet the demands of a hungry demigod? Or will they cow under the pressure? Betsy should have known better than to fall for the King of the Gods. But hey, we’ve all made stupid decisions in our twenties. But in her case, there were consequences. Demigod-sized consequences. You’d think Zeus would be interested in getting to know his minotaur son. But sadly, Betsy is abandoned to figure out single motherhood on her own… which is a problem when her baby needs more nourishment than she can provide. When a mysterious goddess offers her a solution, she hastily agrees—not realizing it will deliver her straight into the arms of a monster. If Felix has said it once, he’s said it a hundred times: Never trust the gods. They’re the reason he was exiled to the corn fields of rural Minnesota all those years ago. He fell in love with the wrong goddess, and BAM. Sentenced to eternal solitude. That is, until they issued him a new punishment: shack up with Zeus’s ex-girlfriend, and help her raise their son. She’s nothing like he expected—and that’s exactly why he can’t let himself get too close. Except, her baby needs milk. And there’s only one way to increase her supply…
