Nazi-occupied Paris, 1942. "I want to create a world where we are free to be together, to be in love," he whispered. I gulp down the sobs building in my throat. "I want that too. I'll come back to you. I swear I'll come back." Elena Garcia knows that the mission she has been tasked with is her most dangerous yet. With a tearful goodbye to the man she has grown to love, the dark-eyed and warm-hearted Santiago Lozano, she hurries to catch the train to the drop-off point, the coded maps she is delivering for the resistance concealed in a pack of playing cards in her purse. As she leaves the underground meeting, she hears heavy footsteps closing in behind her. Her heart pounds, and a dark figure comes into her line of sight. Expertly fighting off her attacker, Elena races back to the station, barely making it onto the train. She is forced to confront the worst: her cover is blown and now nowhere will be safe. Somebody close to her is a traitor, but when you live in the shadows, how do you know who you can really trust? To stay alive, Elena must flee the country - and that means leaving Santiago behind. But she refuses to abandon her mission while Europe is still in the clutches of the enemy, and she will not leave Santiago to face the wrath of the Gestapo alone. But when Elena uncovers that the love of her life has been having meetings with high-ranking government officials and hears German officials greeting him by name in the street, it's clear that Santiago has his own secrets. Elena must now ask herself: should she risk everything to save Santiago... or was he the one who betrayed her to the enemy? And now, with millions of innocent lives across Europe at stake, how can she know what is the right choice?

What's wrong with a little bit of faking it? After Josie Jewell got dumped by her ex through a note on the fridge, she hasn't let herself get close to anyone.

After her ex broke up with her because of the family business, Josie decides to tell a little white lie. But it's just a matter of time until the truth comes out.

We all remember that one magical summer that changed our lives. For Joe, it's 1999. School is over, and with zero idea of what he's meant to do for the rest of his life, he's reluctantly accepted a job at the local summer camp. Anything to drown out the sharp grief of missing his dad and move on from what school calls his 'anger problems'. But getting screamed at by hyperactive ten-year-olds is almost enough to make him quit on day one. Almost. Then he sees Amy Ashworth for the very first time, her black hair shining in the sun - and learns that nothing hits harder than first love. She's the only person he knows who reads for fun, or who's seen Titanic fourteen times. But there's another side to Amy. Soon, she's the only person he's ever been to a wild house party with, or kissed under the twinkling stars. It's the happiest Joe has ever been... until the terrible day when what's left of his family fractures into a million pieces. Caught up in Amy's whirlwind, Joe can't bring himself to tell the truth about his life. Would his dad have wanted him to fight for the girl he loves, or protect his family, no matter what? Only one thing is certain: this is the summer Joe will grow up. But when he looks back decades later, will he be ashamed of his choices? And will Amy still be by his side? Heart-warming, hilarious, nostalgic, and bittersweet, Truly, Madly, Amy explores first loves, last chances, and the summers that shape us.
