Ollie owns a dog grooming business inside the Atlanta airport and loves to watch the hot stranger that comes in on the Tuesday flight. She daydreams about him and is too afraid to take the risk to talk to him. One day, one of the dogs takes off and starts to run down the terminal. Ollie ends up finding the dog in the arms of the Tuesday flight stranger.
After talking about the dog he helped her catch, we find out that Bennet is a British risk assessor by day and a famous romance author by night. He is in a terrible writing rut before he runs into Ollie. After their first meeting, Bennet is inspired to write and asks her if they can become friends so he can finish his book.
With their friend dates only being in the airports on Tuesday afternoons, a romance blooms and Ollie has to trust her heart to take the risk to fall in love.
I loved this novella and so happy it's part of a trilogy! I loved Bennet and his nervous chatting/texting! Their love story makes you believe that taking a risk is always worth it.

Gia is a Chemistry professor whose research gets eviscerated by a rival chemist that she can't stand. One fateful night in an airport, over New Year's Eve, she meets a man named Felix and makes out with him in the terminal when the clock struck midnight.
Several months later Gia has to go pick up the man that challenges her work every chance he gets. Once at the airport she realizes that the hot man she made out with in the airport, is the man that tears her work apart.
Working together for a few months, they were assigned the task to go on a five-school tour to see how these schools are teaching STEM. With dread and desire in their hearts, Gia and Felix need to learn to navigate their mutual lust for each other and still be professional.
I also loved this novella and read it in a day. These two remind me so much of my husband and I (I'm more like Gia, and my husband is a lot like Felix). Can't recommend these novellas enough! There's just enough steam and conflict to keep turning those pages!

Molly does not believe in love at first sight or fairy tales. She's been shafted in love one too many times. All changes when she finds Albert (Al) George in her office.
Molly takes a chance and shows Albert around NYC, undoubtedly falling in love with him. After a month, they were supposed to meet at the MET and he was MIA.
After a couple of months of no communication, Molly believes that something terrible happened to him and he got bored with her, like in her previous relationship. When a random request comes to her job requiring her to take back an exhibit to Bath, UK, she takes the opportunity.
Once in Bath and at the giant country estate where the exhibit is supposed to go, who meets her at the door? Albert. But is that his real name? Can Molly trust him after all the lies he told her?
This was a super quick audiobook that I could listen to at work and I thought it was super adorable! Only 3 hours long so of course it was going to be an instant love romance with A LOT of cliches! But I enjoyed it a lot. Can't wait to start the second one in the series!
