The Rancher and the Baby
ONLY A MOTHER KNOWS Amelia Varden wasn't her baby's natural mother, but she'd raised the little boy from birth. Now, after lying to the world about their family ties, it was time to pay for her deception. Because someone had come to claim her child.... Rancher Dalton Grayson had promised his family he'd find their long-lost grandbaby and bring him home. But what he found was a beautiful woman who loved the boy with all her heart, a woman so secretive, she wouldn't let him near. But near, he would get. Because he wasn't going anywhere without answers--or without Amelia and baby Mitch as his own....

The Bride's Second Thought
THE STRANGER AND THE VIRGIN Bride-to-be Ellen Reese was all set to wed "Mr Right." But second thoughts sent her off on a ride that would change her life. Who knew that Mother Nature's worst blizzard would strand her in a mountain cabin with a ruggedly handsome stranger -- a man who was everything her fiance wasn't! Tall, strong and irresistible, Peter Whitley couldn't believe his good fortune. Miss Ellen Reese was by far the most desirable female ever to curl up in front of the fire. But Peter was a man of honor and would never dare to touch a woman promised to another. Unless that promise was meant to be broken.

Truck Driving Woman
CHAUFFEUR-DRIVEN MAN A tragedy had brought them together, but Darcy Raines could see no future in her growing attraction to Cole York. She drove a truck and operated heavy machinery, while the wealthy Cole--Darcy imagined--lunched at a country club and mingled at upper-crust cocktail parties. Surely Cole's interest in her was solely as a self-appointed guardian, she thought, and the only emotion he felt was a sense of duty. But then he kissed her. . . passionately. Suddenly Darcy wondered what kind of game he was playing. He seemed like a good man, but wouldn't Cole's falling in love with her be too good to be true?
