Brooke Hastings is the best employee Dec’s ever had: polished, capable, and intelligent. After four years, he’s just realized that she’s also smoking hot. But their working relationship is too valuable to stake on a fling, no matter how mind-bendingly pleasurable it promises to be . . . What’s worse than never meeting the right man? Finding him, and then working side-by-side every day while he remains absolutely blind to your existence. That is, until one temptation-packed road trip changes everything. Teaching her gorgeous, driven boss how to cut loose and have fun is the toughest challenge Brooke’s ever faced. But it’s one that could give both of them exactly what they need, if Dec will take a chance on a perfect—and perfectly unexpected—love . . .

So Trina Lockhart gathers letters from Raymond's friends and family, hoping their wishes will help to heal the man she loves—and bring him back home. In Candis Terry's Home Sweet Home, Lt. Aiden Marshall returns to Sweet, Texas, after facing the devastation of war. With the help of the entire town—and a tail-wagging companion—the woman he's always loved makes her hero's homecoming all the more sweet.

Con la tragica morte dei genitori, per i fratelli Kincade finisce il tempo dei sogni e delle illusioni e arriva quello della maturità: potrebbe rivelarsi anche il momento delle divisioni e delle incomprensioni, e dunque la fine dei rinomati vigneti di famiglia, Sunshine Vineyards, ma il motto Tutti per uno, uno per tutti risuona dentro i loro cuori e, forse, ciò che hanno avuto in eredità riuscirà a tenerli uniti. Per sempre. Jordan non ha passato molto tempo in famiglia negli ultimi quindici anni. Precoce stella dell'hockey, si è trasferito sulla costa orientale appena diciottenne e da allora ha trascurato i legami, tanto che, al ritorno a casa, si sente quasi un estraneo. Ma in quel momento di difficoltà, capisce che ciò che si sta perdendo forse non potrà più essere recuperato, come l'atteggiamento scostante della sorella più piccola, Nicole, gli fa capire chiaramente. Quando poi incontra la ragazza cui ha dato buca a un ballo scolastico e viene sommerso dai ricordi, i suoi dubbi sulla vita che sta conducendo si ingigantiscono fino quasi a travolgerlo. Divorato dai sensi di colpa e stretto tra il desiderio di recuperare il tempo perduto e i contratti milionari cui è legato, Jordan non sa quali tessere del puzzle della sua vita iniziare a sistemare... Ma, come spesso accade, il tempo saprà dargli il giusto suggerimento!
