Book Description
Who can resist the boy next door? This value-priced bundle of sweet, small-town contemporary romances has universal appeal. Searching for love? Look no farther than the next house over to find Mr. Right waiting for your knock. Come on in! Forgiving Jackson: When a devastating fire at one of his concerts reopens old wounds for country superstar Jackson Beauford, he heads home for some peace and quiet—only to discover that his old nemesis, stubborn Southern magnolia Emory Lowell, has planted herself at his family estate, bringing chaos in her wake. Coming Home: Callie Sorenson’s first love was tall, tanned, and, as her older brother’s best friend, completely off limits. But now a twist of fate brings her back from New York City to the childhood home she left behind years ago, and to hometown boy Danny McCutcheon. Callie is not the young girl he remembers—as a woman, she’s turning his world upside down. The risk to their hearts is high, but the temptation may just prove to be too much to resist. Waking Up to Love: Fans of While You Were Sleeping will love this debut tale! When Scott McInney’s mom gets a slight case of amnesia, he convinces old pal Ramona, the identical twin sister of his runaway wife, to step into her heels. Ramona reluctantly agrees to help out, but when the pretending gets too real, will Scott figure out that he might have married the wrong twin? No Nice Girl: Phyllis Gordon cares too much for her neighbor, Terry McClain, to marry him until she rids herself of her unrequited passion for her millionaire employer, Kenyon Rutledge. But that could be a hopeless cause, because Kenyon’s fiancée has beauty, brains, and money besides. How’s a girl to compete with that? Then Phyllis’s cousin arrives in town with a diabolically innocent threat to everyone’s hearts. Sensuality Level: Sensual

Book Description
It's always sexy when he runs the company...but she commands his heart. These 10 couples know exactly what suits them and where to draw the line between business and pleasure. Find out who's boss on these perfect lunchtime breaks! An Inconvenient Love: To expand his real estate business, Luca Castellioni needs an English-speaking secretary and a wife, so he strikes a bargain with pretty stranger Sophia Stevens. She's fascinating, and soon enough he wants more marriage and not so much convenience in their agreement. Too bad his new wife has reconstructed her own life without him. Can love overcome the obstacles between them? Urgent: One Nanny Required: Rania George is offered a sweet gig babysitting a boy she adores. Only catch? She has to fly to Hollywood--a place she loathes--and spend three weeks with his devastatingly handsome and arrogant father. Slow Ride: Mechanic Cooper Moretto rolls up on trouble with a capital T when he spots Kyla O'Grady's '67 Mustang Coupe by the side of the road. The new gal in Aston Falls is out of cash and he's short-handed, so an employment trade makes sense. But there's danger following Kyla. Can their love vanquish the threat? Bride by the Book: Small-town Arkansas attorney Garner Holt badly needs an assistant to sort out his cluttered office, but he didn't expect a super-secretary like Miss Angelina Brownwood. She's perfect until an online search reveals a flaw: Angelina isn't a secretary. But does her secret mean she's not the girl for him? Looking for Prince Charming: Glory agrees to pose as her boss's girlfriend while he campaigns for Lord Mayor of Melbourne--which might not be the best idea since she's already in love with him!Battling the Best Man: Now a Chicago resident, Dr. Kory Flemming can't say no to returning home for her best friend's wedding. Trouble is, Will Mitchell, the only man smart enough to keep pace with Kory in high school, is the best man, and he's up to his usual flirtatious tricks. Can they set aside their rocky past to make a new future together? A Man for All Seasons: There are crazier ways to spend a holiday. At least that's what journalist Janey Turner keeps telling herself when she agrees to spend Thanksgiving with the editor she's never met in person before. But the chemistry that flares between her and Joe Argenti is as hot and unexpected as the lightning strike that soon ignites Casper Mountain. Will her professional dreams cost her a merry Christmas? Act of Love: When you're young and passionate about your first theatre job, you do everything your director tells you, right? Not if you're Marigold Aubrey, who can't seem to resist speaking her mind around charismatic Tor Douglas. But is she trying for the part, or his heart? Edie and the CEO: Edie Rowan is passionate about workers' rights, but when her protests backfire, championing the little guy gets her in trouble with sexy CEO Everett Kirk. He sends her to attend management camp--and even drives her there himself. When they let down their professional guard, sparks fly and secrets are revealed. The Meatball Mistress: Ryan Garridy is a diehard commitment phobe, struggling to keep his Italian restaurant afloat. The last thing he needs is to hire Cara Manzoni, a woman who skipped out on paying for her meal. Unless, that is, this secretive stunner can save more than just his livelihood.

Book Description
A value-priced collection featuring the heart-warming Hallmark-style stories of babies bringing couples together. These five couples aren’t quite sure what to expect when they find out they’re expecting! Love and family may not have been part of their plans, but opening their hearts may come more naturally than they’d thought. Add this bundle of joy to your reading list today. Healing Beau: Sick of being babied by his family, youngest brother Beau joined the army as soon as he could. He thought he’d be a lifer, but an injury sends him back to Beauford without peace or a purpose. Knowing he can’t heal until some truths come to light, his old friend Christian Hambrick, who’s always held a torch for him, wages a full-scale war on the past. However, when she discovers she’s pregnant, forging into the future together becomes more important than ever. Wynter’s Journey: Tragedy tore Wynter and Sam apart twelve years ago, and now she’s back at his doorstep, widowed, desperately broke, and very pregnant. What’s a nice guy to do but offer her shelter? But living under the same roof quickly leads to old feelings resurfacing, even if Wynter is determined to leave the pain of Scallop Shores behind. Now the one person Sam had wanted to forget is the one person he can’t let go. What a Texas Girl Needs: Having a one-night stand with Matias Barnes? Not one of Vanessa Witte’s most stellar moments. But she’s back in Lockhardt with a secret and a reason to start fresh: a baby. Mat knows all about society women, and Vanessa isn’t right for him, but when she reveals her news, everything changes. Will he really let her go all over again? California Homecoming: After returning from duty in the Middle East wounded in both body and spirit, Hunter Evans volunteers to help single mother-to-be Sarah Ladina fix up a run-down Victorian in Costanoa’s beach town. Can they get beyond their painful past and complicated present to find the love and respect they need? A Taste of Honey: Charli Honey knew it was a bad decision to end up in her boss’s bed, and to make matters worse, now she’s pregnant. William Knight is happy to do the right thing, but can Charli live with a man who doesn’t love her? Or can William convince her his change of heart is not only possible, it’s real?

Dashing, handsome, and with money to burn... It's a devastatingly sexy combination for these eight successful and commanding heroes as they search for the women who make their lives richer with laughter, passion, and love. The Tycoon's Wager: To boost ratings and save her radio show, agony aunt CJ Stratt has no choice but to agree to a series of publicity dates with London's renowned playboy, Jack Harper. Jack knows seduction, but he has no idea how to love. Love is CJ's business, yet she's never been seduced. Can they find their way to a happily ever after? Just for the Weekend: Multimillionaire Sam Mason is sick of gold diggers. When he meets a role-playing kindergarten teacher at a sci-fi convention in Vegas, she seems like the real thing. Then--surprise!--he wakes up married to this sexy stranger...only to find his new bride has vanished. Is he looking for a swindler or the love of his life? An Inconvenient Love: To expand his real estate business, Luca Castellioni needs an English-speaking secretary and a wife, so he strikes a bargain with the first pretty face to cross his path. But now Sophia Stevens fascinates him, and he wants more marriage and not so much convenience in their agreement. Too bad his wife has reconstructed her own life, without him. Can love overcome the obstacles between them? Heart of Design: Hollywood playboy Ian O'Connor has women falling at his feet, but interior designer Sophie Hartland refuses to be one of them. Sophie's a refreshing change from the actress wannabes trying hop aboard Ian's new gravy train of success. But is her disinterest just an Oscar-worthy act? Hiding from Hollywood: When movie producer Ethan Walker walks into Abby's diner, she's terrified. The last thing she wants is her name connected with his when her life is now about hiding from the tabloids. But when she's left without a safe place to stay, Ethan offers her sanctuary in his home, and Abby must decide whether she can finally stop running and trust Ethan with her secret. The Spanish Acquisition: When multibillionaire business mogul Carlos meets struggling art student Lily on vacation in the Dominican Republic, sparks fly. But can they overcome their differences as well as a mix-up of mistaken identity? Fearless Love: Jake Colt has no interest in handling the Carmichael winery acquisition, but he has little choice considering the business agreement he made with his father. Madison Carmichael refuses to let this interloper take what belongs to her family, no matter what passions he stirs in her heart. When two opposing forces clash, sparks are bound to fly... High Octane: Fueled: Maddux Bates's Formula One career needs an overhaul this season--not the scandal of an affair with a multimillionaire sponsor's girlfriend. But there's more to Brynn Douglas's story--and motivations--than meets the eye, and the flame between them burns hot. Falling in love on the F1 circuit is a crash course in adrenaline.

Mistletoed in Merritt: Rich boy Bennett Pontellier Watkins and blue collar Hélène-Louise Soileau had a secret, youthful love affair—until their mothers found out and set them on separate paths. Eight years later, their lives cross again when Hélène-Louise agrees to teach a series of workshops at the Cultural Arts Center in Merritt, where Bennett is the director. The spark is still there, but old patterns begin to re-emerge, and it’s clear that Bennett still wants to hide their relationship from his family. Is Hélène-Louise willing to give up everything she’s built for herself for a man who may never see beyond her social status? Cloaked in Christmas: Wulfkin Cacey Varg’s new pack is suddenly no place to be this December. Her ex has discovered her location and is on his way to take their daughter back. But a massive snowstorm prevents her from packing up and leaving town—and instead delivers a sexy stranger, Vincent Lyall, to her doorstep. Can she trust that he isn’t one of her ex’s henchmen? Or will this be a merry Christmas after all? A Heart for the Holidays: Thanks to an injury, Silver Morgenstern’s career as a surgeon came to an abrupt and final halt. Now she’s searching for meaning—and failing—in her administration job at the local hospital. That is, until she receives Fisher Tibbs’s application to be removed from the heart transplant list. As the founder of Casper, Wyoming’s successful social program Combat Children’s Hunger, Fisher seems to have everything to live for. But nothing can mend the very real fissure his young daughter’s death tore in his heart—unless Silver’s new mission to rescue his heart succeeds, in which case it might just save her own. Montana Christmas Magic: Tennis pro Logan Collins inherits a ranch in rural Phillipsburg, Montana, that he’s not allowed to sell for six months. It’s just enough time to start a sweet relationship with artist and chocolatier Julie Thompson. But despite the trappings of permanence—a dog, a horse, and a woman who brings light into his dark days—his life is still in New York. He’ll have to persuade Julie that Christmas in Manhattan is just as inspiring, before the holidays put a final wrap on their relationship. Sensuality Level: Sensual

Book Description
Duty, fidelity, honor...what's not to love about a military man? Meet these seven irresistible heroes who fight just as passionately for true love as they do for their country. Healing Beau: USA Today best-selling author Alicia Hunter Pace spins a poignant small-town story of healing and homecoming. After recklessly destroying his military career, Ranger Sergeant Beau Beauford retreats home to Beauford Bend...only to promptly impregnate his best and oldest friend. Christian Hambrick is made of guts, steel, and plain good sense, except for that lifelong torch she's held for Beau. When old secrets resurface, she'll wage full-scale war on Beau's past to preserve their future. Her Soldier's Touch: When U.S. Army Sergeant First Class Colten Taylor returns briefly to Phoenix to bury his brother, he's shocked to see Rachel Madison waiting for him at the airport. He regrets the morning he walked away from her; coming from an abusive home taught Colt to put limits on all his relationships. But now that she has his son in tow, will he keep running? California Homecoming: After returning from duty in the Middle East wounded in both body and spirit, Hunter Evans volunteers to help Sarah Ladina fix up a run-down Victorian in the beach town of Costanoa. Can they get beyond their painful past and complicated present to find the love and respect they need? Island Pursuits: Former U.S. Marine Adrian Mendez returns to his homeland of Trinidad and Tobago only to run into a feisty island goddess with one flaw--she has no love of anything military. Angel Without Wings: After resigning from a promising army career to help his mother and wounded brother, Jesse McCormick struggles to save the family farm. Only one plan will earn him enough money to get his family out of debt--a dangerous assignment with a paramilitary group. But he's slowly losing his heart to Linnea Reyes, a war widow helping to save the farm. Can he give up her love just when he's found it? The Cormorant Club: When they're reunited by chance, Holly and Scott's attraction is as undeniable as when they met in a MASH unit in Vietnam. But when a murder-for-hire group starts targeting their war contacts, will they lose their second chance at love? Enlisted by Love: Ex-army officer Matthew Blake is eager to start a new career, until he comes up against the most challenging obstacle he's ever encountered: Greta Ferguson, the interior designer who challenges his every order.
