The Love Hypothesis
★ STAFF PICK!£10.99
Selected by Mia YStaff Pick!
Mia Y Says…
A fun and perfectly executed academic rivals-to-lovers romance. This story follows Olive, a biology PhD student who people-pleases her way into fake dating a young professor. Ali Hazelwood is the best at fun, silly, spicy romances with just a sprinkle of commentary about women in STEM fields. This is my favourite of hers, check it out before the film comes out later this year!
________________________
When a fake relationship between scientists meets the irresistible force of attraction, it throws one woman’s carefully calculated theories on love into chaos. As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn’t believe in lasting romantic relationships but her best friend does, and that’s what got her into this situation. Convincing Anh that Olive on her way to a happily ever after was always going to be tough, scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting woman, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees. That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor and well-known ass. Which is why Olive is positively floored when he agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire and Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support, their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion.

The House in the Cerulean Sea
★ STAFF PICK!£10.99

Mia Y Says…
“This is a top contender for my favourite book of all time. It follows a disillusioned civil servant sent to check in on a house for magical children by the sea. The people and places he discovers there end up turning his life around. Klune is a master at evoking the most beautiful, whimsical setting. This story is just so heart-warming and sweet, providing an escape and a source of inspiration for anyone stuck in the mundanity of day-to-day life.”

It Happened One Summer
£10.00Piper Bellinger is fashionable, influential, and her reputation as a wild child means the paparazzi are constantly on her heels. When too much champagne and an out-of-control rooftop party lands Piper in the slammer, her stepfather decides enough is enough.

Piper hasn’t even been in Westport for five minutes when she meets big, bearded sea captain Brendan, who thinks she won’t last a week outside of Beverly Hills. So what if Piper can’t do math, and the idea of sleeping in a shabby apartment with bunk beds gives her hives. How bad could it really be?

Inside the building, fear quickly turns to irritation for the seven strangers trapped inside. If this is to be their last day on earth, shouldn’t it be a bit more dramatic?
