He was her first: the first man she longed for, the first man she truly desired. Then he betrayed her and broke her heart. Now her revenge will be oh-so-sweet . . . and hot!

Trish Henderson has returned home to Eden to take care of some family business . . . and some personal business, as well. Though she''s achieved remarkable success as a high-powered Chicago attorney, Trish has never forgotten her small-town high school sweetheart, Joe Ramsey, or the devastation of heartbreak.

Now she''s come face-to-face with the gorgeous sex god Joe has grown into, and she''s determined to get him out of her system once and for all—and maybe take a little revenge, too. And this time, she has all the power. After all, where is it written that only men can explore and enjoy a physical relationship without commitment? Her plan: seduce him for just one night, then walk away . . .

But there''s just one problem. Trish is about to find out that one night with Joe may never be enough . . .

Five days before her wedding to a man she admires but doesn''t love, Katrina Spencer escapes to a private island. There, she can let the sun warm her body as she contemplates a future without the passion she craves. Then she lazily opens her eyes, only to see Brock Denton . . . muscular, half-naked, the one who got away—the one who makes her body tingle with arousal.

How Brock arrived is a mystery, but it''s clear he''s in danger. Kat faces danger, too, in the arms of a man who is determined to free her from her every inhibition with his hands, his mouth, and more!

Kat has five steamy days and five sultry nights to make up her mind—return home to a man she doesn''t love, or satisfy her wildest passions with Brock and let herself be . . . swept away.

The last thing she needs right now is a man . . .

Lindsey Brooks had it all—an awesome job doling out advice to the lovelorn, a fabulous high-rise apartment, and a to-die-for fiancé. But then she got dumped—wearing nothing but a "Kiss the Cook" apron—and desperate to escape, she retreats to a tiny Montana town to reclaim a family treasure. She never dreamed anyone would try to stop her—or that he''d be sexy as sin.

Too bad she finds such a hot one . . .

Rob Colter isn''t into relationships—but Lindsey sees Rob as the perfect guy to help her "get back on the horse." The sex horse, that is.

And too bad he has so many secrets . . .

Now Rob''s dangerous past is about to catch up with them both. And if that''s not horrible enough, Lindsey is falling for him—hard. For a girl who usually has all the answers, Lindsey is up to her neck in trouble.

The daughter of an over-protective father, Millicent Anderson has never been permitted an ounce of freedom? her father has kept her completely sheltered from boys, and even quashed her dream of being a teacher. But when a family trip leads her to tiny Moose Falls, Montana, and she catches sight of bad boy Johnny Pickett, her heart flips -- and before she knows it, she''s breaking all the rules to be near him. In Johnny''s arms, Millie discovers passion, and Millie is just what Johnny needs to heal after war. When her father tries to separate them by dangling her old dreams before her, however, Millie''s forced to make a choice: Will she choose the love of her family and the opportunity to build a career -- or will she leave everything behind for the hot guy she''s fallen for?

It''s tough to play it cool on a sultry summer night . . .

He''s exactly the kind of guy Jenny''s always kept her distance from . . . but soon the good girl and the bad boy are caught in a raw heat that''s out of control. Too bad Mick''s got a secret that threatens to tear them apart and ruin Jenny''s perfectly, passionately reckless summer . . .
