A second chance for love… When determined and successful marketing director Brooklyn Hathaway moved to San Francisco, she swore to never return to her hometown of Chicago. Especially if her rival and former flame, irresistibly sexy Wyatt Lexington, was still living there. But when her best friend announces that she is getting married to Wyatt's best friend, and asks Brooklyn to be her maid of honor, she decides to put the past aside and head home. Years ago, Wyatt and Brooklyn's office romance blazed hotly through the hallways of Plush Media. And when they both were up for the same promotion, Wyatt chose business over pleasure, chasing the gorgeous Brooklyn far away. Now paired with each other and tasked to host a series of wedding celebrations, in conjunction with Elite Events, their passion flares up once more. Will Brooklyn and Wyatt be able to forgive the past and trust each other again? Will they be able to claim their second chance at happily ever after…together?

But she's already found Mr. Right... She would rather call her impending nuptials planned than arranged, but she's certain her fiancé is her perfect match. Still, Dr. Meera Malhotra jumps at the opportunity to spend the month before her wedding doing a medical rotation in small-town USA. Getting a taste of independence and improving public health are both part of her plan. Falling for a cowboy? Not so much. Jake Taylor is totally wrong for her, anyway: he raises cattle; she's a vegetarian. He's content with life on the ranch; she's from bustling London and wants to travel. She couldn't possibly throw away everything she's built over something as illogical as love. Read the excerpt for free on Wattpad. Full book available through Amazon/kindle and Barnes & Noble/Nook and Apple/iBooks and Harlequin.

Believing she's unlikely to ever have any man offer her marriage, unconventional Lady Chloe Albright impetuously seizes the chance of a pretend engagement with Lord Christopher Fellingham, Earl of Twyford. Having loved Kit for years, she's learnt to carefully hide the pain of knowing that she is no more to him than his friend's studious little sister. But should she now put her research skills to good use and try some experiments in love? At turns kissed, flirted and argued with, Kit doesn't know whether he is more amused, annoyed or —dare he admit it?—aroused by Chloe's unexpected attention. Suddenly he's wishing that their pretend engagement could become the real thing!

My to-do list for planning this society wedding was supposed to be simple: 1. Arrange some tastefully naughty pre-wedding activities for the bridal party. 
2. Get the bride and groom down the aisle so they can get started on their happily ever after. But now the groomsmen—aka five of the world's most outrageous playboys—are running wild, the groom is running scared and the bride is running me ragged! That's bad enough but with Tate Langfield (yes, that Tate Langfield; he of The Kiss That Cannot Be Forgotten) distracting me at every turn, if I don't take drastic action this wedding—not to mention my career – will end in disaster! Clearly I need to relax so maybe the only way to regain my focus is to do the one thing I've never dared? And what could be more…tension-relieving…than a night of unbridled passion with the gorgeous Tate? It could be our little secret, dear diary…

Someone is after Capitol K-9 Unit tech guru Fiona Fargo, and they'll stop at nothing to keep her from decoding the secrets of Washington, D.C.'s elite. She knows Officer Christopher Torrance and his canine partner Dutch will keep her safe, but he's the last colleague she wants dogging her heels. Spending time with him might reveal her secret crush on him. But with killers determined to silence her forever, she'll have to put aside her fears and accept his help. Chris has secrets of his own, and a failed engagement makes him leery of moving forward with any woman, even the beautiful Fiona. As they hunt for the killer, they'll find that love can break any barrier.

For an Old Order Amish woman, being twenty-five and unmarried is bad enough. But to be shipped off to another community on a hunting trip to find a husband is downright humiliating. Mary Glick despairs that she'll never find someone who'll love her—until she sees Caleb Stutzman. They were as close as two people could be as children…until one devastating day that she still can't forget. They're older now, though, and his sweet and tender pursuit of her tempts her to forgive him. But ultimately can she trust him with her heart?

Holt Perry was a man on the run. But when he stopped for supplies in the small town of Buffalo Hollow, he found a family in even more desperate straits than him. Lizzie Tate's father had fallen ill several months ago, leaving the running of the store and the care of her little sister to her. Now winter approached, and their fuel supply was dangerously low. Holt promised to help the Tates, but as he spends time with Lizzie and her family, he finds himself wanting something more impossible than freedom…a place to call home.

Hip Porterman always expected he'd have the wife, the kids and the white picket fence. But that was before the Army and the PTSD, before falling in love skipped him over and left him a recovering drunk and Willing, Montana's go-to guy when somebody needed a hand. And that's exactly what Sarah Winslow needs: a hand…or at least a tow, after her car ends up in an ice-filled ditch in her last-minute attempt to escape the holidays for Mexico. How ironic that two people so committed to avoiding Christmas end up finding the true meaning of holiday cheer in each other, playing Santa one long, snowy Christmas Eve.
