(Teacher/Student relationship) Janice has a hard life with her father. Her dad and brother killed her mother and she is forced to stay with them. So when the trip to the Bahamas with her junior class comes, she is more than happy for a little freedom. Of course, Janice can't seem to catch a break. The plane crashs in the ocean. She along with Mr. Rush, her too perfect and curious teacher, are the only ones that survived. How will they live, on an island alone? If surviving wasn't enough, try having to deal with keeping secrets hidden, ones that could mean life or death for Janice if she ever makes it off the island. And what could be better than testing just how far will they go to do the right thing when feelings start to grow?

With his pride and her prejudice, what could possibly go wrong? When the arrogant Blake Hansen steals Addie Preston's promotion at the library, he pretty much rubs her nose in it. But Addie, who dreams of being a full-fledged librarian, decides to stick it out. She loves surrounding herself with books and keeping her father's memory alive in the building where they spent so much time together. Soon, Addie learns that her beloved library will be torn down to make room for a larger facility, and she has to make a choice. Fight, or let go? To complicate things, she finds herself attracted to Blake, who is engaged to someone else. Will Blake and Addie ever resolve their differences? This is a modern retelling of Pride and Prejudice, with hints of the other Jane Austen books as well.
