It's the wrong time … the wrong place . . . to fall in love.When Danielle Kapur, an advertising rep in San Antonio, decides to fly to Sea Horse Island, North Carolina, she figures two things might happen – she will have one last fling with her ex-fiancé whom she hasn't seen in eighteen months or they will figure out their problems and live happily ever after. She wants someone who will commit – not another playboy. What she doesn't expect is to drink too much and wake up in bed with a stranger.Adrian Massimino, CEO of Mass Enterprises, stands on the balcony of his beachfront home staring at the dark clouds massing on the horizon. This is typical of the way his life was been going lately: a beautiful new home, a white sandy beach, and it's going to rain like hell all weekend. At least he doesn't have a nagging female eager to get her hands on his money. He's had one cheating wife. From now on he's going solo-- no-strings attached.Hurricane Felix hits the North Carolina coast and Adrian and Dani are forced to spend the weekend together. Their passionate natures build much like the storm outside until neither can resist the intensity of their attraction.

Blood on her hands. No one really understands Mary Costner, except her beloved gold-mining partner, one of the only men in Colorado's Gregory Gulch who knows she is a woman--and who treats her like his daughter. But when Mary wakes up one night covered in blood--with no memory of why her partner is dead--she knows she looks guilty as sin. So she does the only thing she can. She runs . . .Desire in Her Heart. Fleeing in a raging blizzard, Mary is thrown from her horse and knocked unconscious. She is found by tough-as-nails U.S. Marshal Carter Monroe, whose gut tells him that this bedraggled blonde must be trying to escape from something or someone. When Mary finds herself in the home of a marshal, she can't believe her luck. She'll have to keep a tight rein on her secrets to keep Carter off guard--even as her body's hunger for the lawman's touch threatens to betray her.

A bargain made in haste. Desperate but determined, lovely Brandy answers an advertisement for a mail order bride, hoping to build a new life out West for herself and the five orphans she's taken under her wing. She needs a guide to reach Fort Laramie by wagon train and turns to Thunder, a Cheyenne scout, for help. When he curtly refuses, Brandy is undaunted. And when he's jailed after a gunfight she makes a devil's bargain: he gets his freedom and she gets a guide.Thunder has learned the hard way that prejudice runs deep for half-breeds. Now, his only desire is to live among the Cheyenne people. He doesn't want the temptation beautiful Brandy offers and the wild passion that explodes between them only hardens his resolve to avoid what he cannot have: another man's soon-to-be-wife. Can he truly walk away from Brandy and the ragtag family? Or has his destiny been sealed by a kiss.
