not seduce the alluring Crista himself. But two days together, on
the run from her fiance's shady family, obliterate every rule... *

elderly neighbours-married seventy years!-and will do anything to
stop foreclosure on their home. Even if that includes dealing with
businessman Derek Camden. He may be gorgeous but he's not to be

the women in town in a frenzy but Cassidy is determined to resist
his charms-she can't risk her heart on another rebel! But one

boss is Andy-her late husband's best friend-but they must learn to
work together for their patients' sake. She isn't prepared to find
him so tempting...or for the resulting baby bombshell... Their
reunion is irresistible... A new job is Boston socialite Sam's
chance to escape her broken engagement. But it reunites her with
the surgeon she's tried to forget! Adam once rescued her with an
earth-shattering kiss-now her desire threatens to derail all her
plans!
