Winston Lowe is trying to make it through his senior year of college so he can put school—and his mostly absent father—behind him. All he’s ever wanted was a dad who shows up and instead he got one who tries to buy Winston's love with extravagant gifts. A car. An off-campus house. An unlimited allowance. Nothing Winston wants, but he's used to that. If he got what he wanted, his best friend Lucky would love him back. The most recent gift, a very humanoid-looking AI robot, has Winston and Lucky more than intrigued. Calvin, as the robot calls himself, is adapting to human life in ways no one could have expected. Winston thought the robots were supposed to be emotionless, impartial, sensible, but Calvin is anything but. Calvin's presence in the house, along with his affinity for thigh-high stockings, short skirts, and intimacy might be what Winston has needed all along. Winston's relationship with Lucky is finally shifting into something romantic, but so is their relationship with Calvin. A robot. All the things that make Calvin special and different are the same things that threaten his existence—and Winston's happiness. There are men searching for Calvin, desperate to right the wrongs of his programming. Is the very real love between the three of them enough to survive the odds or will Calvin's memory be erased, taking Winston and Lucky's love with it?

Ted Lasso meets Bridgerton for a 19th century spin on The Hangover in USA Today bestselling author Jenny Holiday’s laugh-out-loud bromantic comedy featuring three Regency-era Earls on their annual trip—ride-or-die buddies offering one another unconditional support in everything from Lady problems to family woes—especially when this trip is crashed by one earl’s pen pal. The complicated fallout from his alter ego being exposed may just be the most challenging problem the boys have to solve yet! From the author of CANADIAN BOYFRIEND, the perfect romp for fans of Evie Dunmore, India Holton, Virginia Heath, Manda Collins, and Suzanne Allain!An annual earls’ trip should provide an escape from a gentleman’s cares, but in this refreshingly modern Regency-era series, three handsome BFFs find that wherever they go, romantic complications follow . . . When not writing, poet Edward Astley, Viscount Featherfinch, spends his time fending off the young ladies of the ton—and some of its young men—and avoiding his cruel father. As heir to the earldom, Edward knows he must marry someday. Alas, he is already hopelessly in love with someone. Hopeless because not only is Miss Julianna Evans not a member of the aristocracy, she is employed. She is a magazine editor—the only one to publish his work. Also, in all their years of increasingly personal correspondence, they’ve never met.   Also, she thinks he’s a woman. Named Euphemia.   Julianna is baffled. How can her soul mate not want to meet? Could it be that Euphemia is not the simple country girl she claims to be? Perhaps she’s wealthy. After all, she’s never cashed any of the bank drafts Julianna has sent. Perhaps Euphemia simply doesn’t want rank to come between them. Well, no more. Having extracted the details of a trip Euphemia is planning, Julianna squanders her meager savings and surprises her at the scene.  He is very, very surprised. As is she.   Now the two will have to decide what is true, what is not, and whether the truest thing of all—love—just might be worth an earldom . . .  

The first in a sparkling Regency-era series with a delightfully modern feel, set against the irresistible backdrop of an annual trip taken by three handsome earls . . . Even an earl needs his ride-or-dies, and Archibald Fielding-Burton, the Earl of Harcourt, counts himself lucky to have two. Archie (the jock), Simon (the nerd), and Effie (the goth) have been BFFs since their school days, and their annual trip holds a sacred spot in their calendars. This year, Archie is especially eager to get away—until an urgent letter arrives from an old family friend, begging him to help prevent a ruinous scandal. Archie’s childhood pal Olive Morgan must be rescued from an ill-fated elopement—and her sister Clementine must be rescued from rescuing Olive. Suddenly the trip has become earls-plus-girls. This . . . complicates matters. The fully grown Clementine, while as frank and refreshing as Archie remembers, is also different to the wild, windswept girl he knew. This Clem is complex and surprising—and adamantly opposed to marriage. Which, for reasons Archie dare not examine too closely, he finds increasingly vexing. Then Clem makes him an indecent and quite delightful proposal, asking him to show her the pleasures of the marriage bed before she settles into spinsterhood. And what kind of gentleman would he be to refuse a lady?
