Elaine Fox Funny Novels

If the Slipper Fits
Anne Sayer learned long ago that fairy tales don't come true. Connor Emory was the "prince" of a rich and powerful family and she was the "hired help," and for one glorious Maine summer, it was heaven. But evil stepmothers do exist, so Anne's "happily-ever-after" -- wasn't.

Dashing, charismatic, and successful, Connor never understood what happened all those years ago, but he's sure now it was for the best. As the reigning heir to the family estate, he returns to Candlewick Island for one reason only: to sell the cursed castle where his heart was broken and dismiss from his life the woman responsible. But Anne, now more beautiful and confident than ever, no longer fits his memory -- and Connor is intrigued. But enough so to risk his heart again?

Bedtime for Bonsai
Dylan is new to Fredericksburg, starting life fresh, away from his alcoholic mom and his lawless youth in Baltimore. He's done a little jail time, but is now an artist with a pottery shop. Penelope, a real society girl, is divorced and half-heartedly considering a reunion with her Ivy League lawyer ex-husband, since her hopes for motherhood dim every day and that's the irreconcilable issue that split them up. Enter Dylan, who's opened his shop right across the street from Penelope's store. They're constantly running into each other, because Penelope's dog (whom she calls Mr. Darcy and he calls Bonsai) keeps sneaking into Dylan's shop via some secret entry.While the chemistry between them may be heating up, neither has any illusions about the other: they are from different worlds. But the heart does not always play fair, and as much as Penelope convinces herself that Dylan is not her type, nothing can shake the vision of him playing with her good friend Megan's daughter. This is a man she could love.

Hot Stuff

Or so Laurel Kane believes. After wasting too many years looking for "the One," the attractive, level-headed journalist for the Washington tabloid DC Scene is convinced that mad, passionate, crazy love is an impossibility past thirty. A practical, sensible system's the only way to choose a spouse. And she's willing to argue her theory with anyone -- including the criminally gorgeous coffee guy, Joe, who supplies her with her daily caffeine fix.

It turns out Joe has strong opinions of his own on the subject, and Laurel figures her readers might enjoy sharing their fiery exchanges of ideas. But once the coffee cart debates become the hottest thing in print, Laurel finds herself in hot water -- because sexy Joe is suddenly determined to prove to her that head-spinning, knees-weakening love is possible. And in this particular battle of the sexes, the loser might actually win . . . if she ends up losing her heart!
