TOP TEN LIST

“In this slow-burn dual POV romance, Andi is the assistant to the Canadian Prime Minister’s wife by day and writes steamy romances under a pen name by night. When her novel, The Prime Minister and Me, comes out, people assume it is based in truth. In order to manage the PR disaster, Andi starts fake-dating the PM’s bodyguard with whom she happens to have an awkward past. Very cute and cinematic.”—Cate Daily, Columbus Metropolitan Library, OH
NoveList read-alike: The Bodyguard by Katharine Center


“Nora is terrified of death but works for S.C.Y.T.H.E., a company that employs grim reapers. To complicate things further, her twin brother’s file has shown up on her desk. To save him, the siblings go on the run with a parrot named Jessica. They find the perfect place to hide until she realizes it isn’t just Capital-D Death after her brother, but someone else trying to kill him. An enjoyable romp.”—Vanneshia Crane, Love County Library, OH
NoveList read-alike: Ruby and Cordelia mysteries by Olivia Blacke
