When beautiful advertising executive Maddie Fitzgerald is attacked in a New Orleans hotel, she thinks that she's a victim of random, senseless violence. FBI agent Sam McCabe thinks otherwise- that she's the target of a serial killer who's eluded the FBI for weeks. He also knows that there's only one way to catch him: use Maddie as the enticing bair. But as McCabe's intimate protection ignites irresistible passion, Maddie finds herself in greater danger then she believed possible- and closer to the killer then she ever imagined.

A Second Chance At Love?
Wealthy Chicago attorney Seth Connelly told himself he'd married Lynn McCoy only to save her family ranch. The Sagebrush, Montana, spread had one been his salvation, though Lynn had been his nemesis. But the troublemaking brat had turned into a fresh-faced beauty...
Though only days from forclosure, Lynn was no Cinderella waiting to be rescued. Just as well, since silver-eyed Seth was no Prince Charming. She fantasized about the only kiss they'd ever shared, fourteen years ago, and yearned to be held again in his rock-hard arms. To be made his wife, in every sense of the word. Seth wanted marriage, too- but without love. Or so his loner heart said...

From the cover:
One day, Mrs. Hartlye gets a new pupil. From the moment Wilbur the ghost floats through the door, things begin to happen. WIlbur doesn't mean to make trouble, but suddenly books rise in the air, pencils write by themselves and mysterious voices answer the teacher.
Wilbur can't understand why everyone's upset. He just loves going to school. It's much more fun then handing around home scaring the neighbors. When Mrs. Hartley finds out what a poor speller Wilbur is, she decides he belongs in school. But he has to promise not to keep disappearing. If the principal finds out there's a ghost in Mrs. Hartley's class, Wilbur will have to leave.

She was his best friend's bride-to-be...
All gruff, rugged Donovan Chance had to do was briefly watch over Chloe Pennington, his billionaire boss' prospective fiancee. Hardly hazardous duty- no matter how much Donovan disapproved of the calculated marriage of convenience. Then again, he never expected a kidnapping to force him into close quarters with the innocently sexy Chloe...
Donovan's duty was to protect her- not feel his granite resolve crumble under Chloe's touching vulnerability, her surprising strength and her sweet, romantic dreams of motherhood. Steely Donovan was hardly the marrying kind. So how would he handle desiring the woman his best friend planned to marry- and inconveniencing this marriage arrangement?

I didn't realize things were quite this bad... but I admire the Princess for her tenacity and dreams. Sasson, the ghostwriter, creates a sensitive, yet enthralling narrative... and I'm looking forward to reading the sequels... and wishing there was something else I could do to help besides pray.

A stranger's kiss...
... on New Year's Eve had Joanna Blake nearly swooning- the last thing the struggling midwife needed. She never dreamed they'd meet again in a hospital delivery roon, where she'd be working at the side of sexy-as-sin Dr. Rio Madrid, and on the verge of accepting his dangerously tempting invitation.
When their lips touched at the stroke of midnight, Rio was lost in the sweetest sensual torment he'd ever known. Opening his lavish home to the strapped single mother was just borrowing trouble, for his reluctant Cinderella would soon learn that he was no fantasy prince. Unless Joanna found a way to liberate this rebel healer from his lonely life and free his heart to love...

From the back cover:
"Forget him and find someone new."
That was the advice Beth's worldly-wise mother gave her. "It's the only way to get over a disastrous affair."
Beth wasn't sure she really wanted to see more of attractive Marcus Craven. Not that Marcus was giving her any option; his pursuit of Beth following their chance meeting in Verona had been decidedly single-minded.
But something held her back from confiding in him. She had the strange feeling that Marcus knew more about her past then she would ever have revealed. And, to be honest, Beth was also afraid to fall in love again...
