Book Description
The holiday party was to celebrate her engagement to the earl. But she soon discovered the earl wasn't what he seemed. At a house party to celebrate Christmas and her engagement to the Earl of Wainstalls, Lady Ruth Barnes finds her betrothed more interested in his chatelaine than in her. Forced to marry by her father, Ruth dreams of escape but duty demands she stays. Graham Stephens, the illegitimate son of a marquess, loves his life of debauchery and plans to indulge himself at Wainstalls' party, until he recognizes the earl's fiancée as the younger sister of his old friends. Seeing how the lecherous Wainstalls looks at Ruth makes Graham's skin crawl, and he decides to pretend to seduce her so Wainstalls will break the engagement. Yet his feigned seductions go witnessed by the other guests, so in effect, they never happened. The passion between them is intense, but Ruth's brothers would kill Graham if he truly seduced her. He should walk away before he ruins her for anyone else. Ruth is ready to risk her future for one night with Graham, even knowing he's offering nothing more than his body. Then they're caught—and the earl sends her home. How will she face her family? And will Graham truly let her go?

Book Description
He said he’d call, but that’s probably the standard line after a vacation fling. Still, she’d thought they’d had something more. When the call never came, she packed away the memories of the hottest sex in her life, and tried to forget about Dave Brashiers. Rather than watch the ink dry on her divorce papers, Jennifer Pearson escapes to that Maui resort where she’d known passion, if only for a night. When Dave walks out of the waves with his surfboard under his arm, she isn’t sure whether she should jump him or flee. Insanely hot vacation sex could be the perfect way to celebrate the end of a miserable marriage. Dave thinks of Jenn as the one who got away, and he’s not about to let it happen again. Passion still sizzles between them, but is it hot enough to rekindle what they had between them ten years ago? He’s got one week to prove to her he’s the man she needs to spend her life with.
