"Sometimes, we are so smitten with happy endings, that we believe we'll end up with one too." Ambrosia Bellemore never believed in happy endings, even though the books she read said otherwise. The closest she ever came to magic was when she found the most beautiful pair of ruby red heels on Amazon. "Lives aren't stories. Stories end, happy or otherwise. But lives don't. We die, and there's nothing happy or otherwise in dying." Calum Achorn never believed in magic. The closest he ever came to magic was when he met an infuriatingly wonderful woman on a flight to New York, wearing the most beautiful pair of ruby red heels he'd ever seen.

Everyone who works within the New York Warriors organization knows that star player August Fletcher refuses to talk to most people...and especially team reporters. All except Quinn Castle, that is. Quinn doesn't know why the broody football player has singled her out, but she knows she doesn't like it-not when being around him and his hot gazes makes her feel like she might accidentally do something that risks her career. So when August unexpectedly retires, Quinn can't help but feel relieved...until she finds herself with a new assignment: spend the summer in August's hometown on Evergreen Isle and write a flashy retirement piece on the Warrior's biggest star. It would be easy enough...if it weren't for the team's secret agenda: convince August to return to New York. It would be easy enough...if it weren't her job on the line if she doesn't see it through. It would be easy enough...if it weren't for the heat in August Fletcher's eyes.

Even though she's one year out of college, for once in her life, Reese Adler is going to have a summer for herself. Her little brother, who she practically raised, is finally graduating high school, so Reese has plans to spoil herself with the money she no longer has to send home - starting with seeing him walk across the stage to accept his diploma. But when a pilot strike shuts down airports across the country and Lucas Finn, the one person she absolutely hates, is proposing they road trip back home together - from Boston to Seattle - she can't believe she finds herself agreeing to get in his car. It's only one week - Luke will never change her mind about him, and the pilot strike will most likely be over by then.

Elle venait de braquer son jardin et parlait à une plante. La première fois qu'il est tombé amoureux d'elle ? Elle lui tenait la main et se cachait avec lui dans les buissons. La première fois qu'il a voulu l'épouser ? Elle avait besoin d'un alibi. Et tout ça, c'était quand ? Il y a dix ans, dans la Villa des Quatre Saisons. Et depuis ? Tout a capoté. Lake Evans "Il a changé. Il est plus large d'épaules, sa mâchoire plus masculine, ses cheveux à peine plus longs que lorsque j'y promenais mes doigts. Ses lèvres sont toujours aussi tentantes, mais elles ne me sont plus destinées. Son regard noisette rencontre le mien et c'est plus fort que moi, j'ai envie de lui. J'ai beau lui en vouloir, et même le détester, mon corps choisit l'autre camp. Le sien. Vote à main levée, ou plutôt à tétons dressés."
