Talia Hibbert

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! From the bestselling author of the Brown Sisters trilogy, comes a laugh-out-loud YA novel about a quirky content creator and a clean-cut athlete testing their abilities to survive the great outdoors - and each other.

BRADLEY GRAEME is pretty much perfect: he's a star football player, manages his OCD well (enough) and comes out on top in all his classes . . . except the ones he shares with his ex-best friend, Celine. CELINE BANGURA is conspiracy-theory-obsessed. Social media followers eat up her takes on everything from UFOs to holiday overconsumption - yet, she's still not cool enough for the popular kids' table. Which is why Brad abandoned her for the in-crowd years ago. (At least, that's how Celine sees it.)These days, there's nothing between them other than petty insults and academic rivalry. So when Celine signs up for a survival course in the woods, she's surprised to find Brad right beside her. Forced to work as a team for the chance to win a grand prize, these two teens must trudge through not just mud and dirt but their messy past. And as this adventure brings them closer together, they begin to remember all the good parts of their history.

Bestselling author Talia Hibbert returns with an electric, domestic, roommates-to-lovers romance between a whirlwind party girl and her uptight best friend... Jasmine Allen believes in bad luck, great wine, and the seductive power of a stiletto heel. What she doesn't believe in is love. Her life is perfect without all that romance rubbish-until a plumbing disaster screws everything up and leaves Jas homeless. Luckily, she has someone to turn to: her best friend Rahul. For seven years, Rahul Khan has followed three simple rules. Don't touch Jasmine if you can help it. Don't look at her arse in that skirt. And don't ever-ever-tell her you love her. He should've added another rule: Do not, under any circumstances, let Jas move into your house. Now Rahul is living with the friend he can't have, and it's decimating his control. He knows their shared dinners aren't dates, their late-night kisses are a mistake, and the tenderness in Jasmine's gaze is only temporary. One wrong word could send his skittish best friend running. So why is he tempted to risk it all?(This book was previously published as Wanna Bet?.) The Roommate Risk is a steamy, standalone, diverse romance. This book is 75,000 words of fluff, angst, and extreme pleasure, with NO cliffhangers, NO cheating, and a guaranteed HEA. Please be aware: this story contains themes of parental neglect and abandonment, parental death, and alcohol dependence that could trigger certain audiences.

Danika Brown knows what she wants: professional success, academic renown, and an occasional roll in the hay to relieve all that career-driven tension. But romance? Been there, done that, burned the T-shirt. Romantic partners, whatever their gender, are a distraction at best and a drain at worst. So Dani asks the universe for the perfect friend-with-benefits--someone who knows the score and knows their way around the bedroom. When big, brooding security guard Zafir Ansari rescues Dani from a workplace fire drill gone wrong, it's an obvious sign: PhD student Dani and former rugby player Zaf are destined to sleep together. But before she can explain that fact to him, a video of the heroic rescue goes viral. Suddenly, half the internet is shipping #DrRugbae--and Zaf is begging Dani to play along. Turns out his sports charity for kids could really use the publicity. Lying to help children? Who on earth would refuse? Dani's plan is simple: fake a relationship in public, seduce Zaf behind the scenes. The trouble is, grumpy Zaf is secretly a hopeless romantic--and he's determined to corrupt Dani's stone-cold realism. Before long, he's tackling her fears into the dirt. But the former sports star has issues of his own, and the walls around his heart are as thick as his... um, thighs. The easy lay Dani dreamed of is now more complex than her thesis.

Forty, frazzled, and fed up, divorcee Rae is in need of a fake date for a weekend-long work event. Luckily, her friend Zach Davis is young, hot, and up for anything. But when she asks for his help, Rae has no idea that Zach's more interested in something real...

They fell in love fifteen years ago and never quite fell out again... Laura Burne arrives in Beesley-on-Sea searching for peace, happiness, and safety--not for the teenage sweetheart she left behind. And yet, one moonlit night on the beach, she finds him anyway. Samir may be a man now, but he's still sexy as sin, still sweet as pie, and still determined to take care of her. The problem is, while he's remained the same, Laura's life is forever changed--and not just by the unborn child she carries. She's on the run from her own personal monster. Her baby's father. Her husband. There isn't a man alive who'd take on those complications. So Laura has to remember that just because Samir protects her, and makes her smile, and watches her with something close to hunger in his eyes, it doesn't mean he wants her... Which is a shame. Because against all reason and all goddamn common sense, she just might want him.

Everyone has secrets. He wants all of hers. Meet the man next door... After years of military service, Evan Miller wants a quiet life. The small town of Ravenswood seems perfect-until he stumbles upon a vicious web of lies with his new neighbour at its centre. Ruth Kabbah is rude, awkward, and-according to everyone in town-bad news. Thing is, no-one will tell Evan why. Does she perform ritual sacrifices? Howl at the moon? Pour the milk before the tea? He has no clue. But he desperately wants to find out. Because Ruth doesn't seem evil to him; she seems lonely. And funny, and clumsy, and secretly quite sweet, and really f*%king beautiful... The more Evan's isolated, eccentric neighbour pushes him away, the more he wants her. Her-and all her secrets. Because there's no way a girl like Ruth truly deserves the town's scorn. ... Is there?
