Brandon Smith, the dashing New York City lawyer, who promises an escape from the confines of my small town life…
Which man offers the gift of true love and happily ever after?
INFLAMED
There are no happy endings; not for “The Other Woman.”
In a small town, there’s just no way to start over.
Eight years after the worst mistake of my life, my life as a single parent is a grind of exhaustion in between spikes of fatigue—an endless struggle to make ends meet.
But then Sean Orr, Havre de Grace’s newest firefighter, comes to town and shows my son and I a new and beautiful kind of “normal.”
The happiness can’t last—not for Sean who is on the run from his past. When it catches up with him, will it bring my fragile normality crashing down around me, or will I find the strength to finally define my own happy ending?
JILTED
Can love ever measure up to perfection?
Jon Seifer is almost everything to me. He’s the security that anchors me and the love that raises me up.
However, I was, at birth, promised in marriage to an even more amazing man who holds a medical degree from Harvard Medical School, works as a cardiac surgeon at Mayo Clinic, and hails from the lofty Brahmin caste.
Like me.
And he is a good man. A man I could love given half a chance. Everyone agrees he’s perfect for me.
And everyone knows that I—an overachiever from birth—would never settle for anything less than perfection.
So where does it leave Jon…?
KINDLED
Second chances. Impossible odds.
Nicholas Dragov, a principal dancer with the American Ballet Theatre, is the bad boy of ballet. On stage, his grand jeté defies the laws of physics and gravity. Off stage, he lavishes money on fast cars and fast women. His small-town roots are abandoned in the past, until a career-ending injury traps him back home, in the care of the woman whose heart he broke…
Me.
I was Nicholas’s first dance partner, but he alone made it onto the world stage. In the eight years since we’ve seen each other, I married, became pregnant, a widow, and a mother.
Now, Nicholas is home, his beautiful body broken, and his attitude darker and deeper than a volcanic crater. I know how to work with sports injuries, but no amount of training or professionalism can help me endure the man who abandoned me when I needed him most.
LURED
He ruined my holiday. And then my life…
When an accident—his fault...okay, maybe mine—cuts short my bicycle tour through Italy, I’m rescued by a brusque, career-driven American lawyer—the same kind of man who once broke my heart.
A week in Brandon Smith’s company, however, convinces me that the similarities are superficial. My Italian fling with Brandon becomes the highlight of my life, but can the glow of romance survive the harsh light of reality when we return to America and find ourselves on opposite sides of the courtroom?
MALIGNED
Is my past too much for a future with him?
Life is rosy as an aspiring college graduate and influential fashion blogger, but it wasn’t always that way.
I have secrets—shameful secrets, precious secrets—and a past that could shatter my carefree present and promising future.
And then I meet Tom—a brilliant lawyer, single father and devoted brother. Falling in love is easy.
I should have known better. Life doesn’t have an easy mode. Not for me.
When he discovers my secrets, will he trust only the facts he can see, hear, and touch, or will he be the first and only man to accept me for who I am—past, present, and future?
