Lark is at rock bottom. Betrayed, career in ruins, lying to everyone she loves… and the holiday market she’s working keeps running her into a man who smiles like he’s never met a problem.

Mood board for Sage owen’s untitled Christmas romance novel. Includes a dark haired woman, a man in a cowboy hat, snowy small town countryside scenes, a holiday market, a piano and acoustic guitar, a woman cuddling a golden retriever, and a close up of a man and a woman’a hands loosely entwined. An excerpt from a sage owen romance WIP, text as follows: "Need a jump?" he guessed out the window. If it was much more than that he wouldn't be much help. A face peered around the hood, squinting in his headlights. Well then. "Lark? It's Billy." Relief gave her the softest expression she'd showed him yet. She came around to his driver's side. How long had she been out here alone? She looked half-frozen. "Hi. My battery's dead, I think." "I've got cables. Want me to take a look?" "Thanks. I'm... hopeless about cars." He folded awkwardly into her driver's seat and tried to start the little car. It didn't make a sound. He dug around behind his seat for jumper cables and after a few minutes with the cars connected he tried her Toyota again. She was shifting from foot to foot, shivering, wasn't dressed for a prolonged stand about in the weather. "Go on and sit in the truck, why don't you? This'll take a few and it'll either work or it won't, no sense getting frostbite over it." Lark muttered something but after a moment she accepted his suggestion. He tried a few more things but five more minutes later he gave it up as a lost cause. He opened his passenger door and leaned in, relishing the blast of heat. "No luck. I can drop you someplace and we can deal with it tomorrow, or I'll wait with you for a tow." "We?" she sounded skeptical. "Not to presume but I work the opening shift at the nearest auto parts store, so I'm probably who you'll need to see for a new battery, unless you take it to a shop and give a middle man the privilege." "Unbelievable." She hissed under her breath. He stepped back, didn't want to loom over her. Lark closed her eyes, tipped her head toward the ceiling, drew in a slow purposeful breath. Then she straightened and nodded. "Alright. Let me get my things." So he closed her hood and his, then held the passenger door for her. She gave him a look. "Are you kidding?" "No ma'am." He grinned, and maybe it was a little rude to needle her when she was a

NOBODY WANTS THIS x FUNNY FEELINGS

She sees love as a balance sheet.
He’s paid to read romance novels out loud.
Dating isn't working for either of them, so what are best friends to do?
Start a podcast to figure out what they're doing wrong, of course.

Dean likes men. So does his girlfriend.

Finding a man they both like? Surprisingly easy.

Keeping Dean in the closet when their new man lives with someone in his acting class? One night can’t hurt.

But one night isn’t enough, and secrets have a way of getting out.

Collage-style promotional graphic for the novel Babel on Callisto. Four illustrated polaroid images show two men, Jack (blond) and Elias (dark-haired with glasses), in different scenes: wearing space suits, working together in a lab, leaning close in a quiet moment, and kissing. The background is pink and textured with scientific sketches and handwritten notes. A torn paper excerpt of prose is centered. Text on the images reads “Babel on Callisto,” “Now Querying,” “88K Sci-Fi Horromance,” and “@saraduranauthor.”

Frankenstein x Interview with the Vampire

He feels nothing.
The vampire feels everything.
The castle wants the rest.

On a red and black background is a book cover and at the bottom it says coming march 22. The book cover is for Awaken, My Love, written by Marat Earendel, an mm gothic romance novel, is at the center. The illustrated cover shows a brown vampire with red eyes and shoulder-length wavy black hair wearing antique black and white clothing while looking toward the viewer. He is holding a man in his hands. The man is pale with long beige hair, wearing white and cream colored clothing. He is in profile, looking up and gripping the vampire's shirt. There are split open pomegranates threaded through the burgundy title of the novel. In the background is a broken gothic window, and at the bottom are chains. The cover is in shades of reds, browns, mauves, and blacks. On a red and black background, it says: Astaire Bloom, an unfeeling man devoid of hope, takes a job in a remote castle under a mysterious employer. As sinister events unfold around him, he starts to feel things he thought himself incapable of. And the castle is hungry for it. To uncover the secrets buried within, he must endure more than he ever imagined.
