Contemporary Romance with mystery, suspense, and secrets!
A key to paradise isn’t the same thing as entry.
Having had a tumultuous childhood, Roy Fernsby now runs a quaint London coffee shop that his friends frequent, cycles on Sundays . . . and keeps his distance from romantic relationships. Though Roy’s charming and well-liked, being single suits him—if only because it helps him avoid the sting of abandonment. Besides, Roy likes his life exactly as it is.
Then a lawyer in Hawai’i calls Roy to inform him that he’s just inherited a beach house in Nalu from his grandparents. There’s just one problem: a former foster child, Roy never knew he had grandparents.
Roy doubts this newly discovered “family” ever cared about him. But a tropical island—complete with a beach house inheritance—beckons. He takes a chance and flies to Hawai’i, expecting to stay a week and sell the beach house. Fast. What he isn’t anticipating is the resentment and painful childhood memories that resurface as he uncovers the roots of a close-knit family he never knew he had. Why didn’t any of these folks, whom everyone adored, look for him?
Then he meets Amy, a former New Yorker and single mother who works as a snorkeling guide. Though Roy and Amy are from opposite worlds—literally—and neither is looking for a relationship, their connection is instant, and they’re soon spending a lot of time together.
Roy tells himself that Amy’s only a nice distraction, even as he falls for her. But Amy has her own secrets . . . and a hidden agenda that involves Roy and his beach house.
As Roy grapples with life-changing secrets regarding his past, he must make difficult decisions about his present: Can he embrace his roots and let go of resentment? Should he trust Amy? Can he stay and seek the truth about where he belongs—no matter the cost to his guarded heart?

G.T. London’s Contemporary Romance Novel
It’s better if she keeps to herself … or is it?
Dasia Harris lives an ordinary life in London. Well, ordinary for a woman determined to blend in at all costs. Once a gifted computer engineer, now Dasia eschews social media and takes one temporary, dead-end job after another. Because her mother was right: she’s not to be trusted. When Dasia does what comes naturally to her, people get hurt.
But her latest position is different. As an office assistant at a healthcare company, Dasia can’t help but love truly helping people for a change. And after a childhood void of praise or appreciation, Dasia’s boss, Sarah implicitly trusts her—and more importantly, brings out the best in her.
Nurtured by Sarah, Dasia takes on one new challenge after another, ensuring the office runs smoothly. Yes, this occasionally means addressing tech issues that she shouldn’t. The company’s CEO is intentionally setting up Dasia’s supervisor to fail in a vital project. Worse, their coworker, Luke, may be forcing Sarah out—and even shutting down the hospital.
Then Sarah asks Dasia to stay on at the company and play a major role in getting the key project off the ground. Dasia’s surprised that she wants to stay on, but knows it’s an act of self-sabotage. After all, she’s sworn off technology … and charismatic Luke. Yet remaining at the company—and in London—gives her a chance to spend more time with Roy, the charming café owner who makes her feel like herself again.
Deep down, Dasia longs to do the right thing—if only to right her past wrongs. And she can’t help but wonder if putting down roots will give her a shot at the sort of love she’s barely let herself dream of. But that will require her to trust herself again … and to take the ultimate risk by following her heart.
