The walled garden
No, Ann confided to her godmother, there was not the slightest possibility that she would fall in love with her new employer, Michael Falcon, the head of St. Cyprian's Preparatory School. He was inconsiderate, unreasonable, dogmatic; he was also engaged to a beautiful but most unpleasant girl; and he thought that Ann was frivolous and had far too good an opinion of herself. Quite obviously two such people could never like or understand one another, and it was a good thing that he was only filling in at St. Cyprians for one term. At least they weren't indifferent to each other, and even out of such unpromising beginnings romance can grow. All of which showed that Ann still had a great deal to learn about love and life!

Those Endearing Young Charms
1986
"I HAVE MY PRIDE. I HAVE SWORN TO MARRY THE GIRL, AND MARRY HER I WILL." After ten long years, the Earl of Devenham had returned to wed Mary Anstey, only to find that their feelings for each other had cooled off considerably. Nevertheless, they both put on bright faces for the benefit of family and friends. But Mary's younger sister Emily saw through their masquerade. She would sacrifice anything rather than see her retiring sister married to the now haughty earl. Desperate measures were called for ...a sleeping draught in Mary's wedding-morning chocolate and Emily could don the veil and force an annulment when the trick was discovered. It was the kind of plot that could--and would--get young Emily into trouble....

Romance Treasury
Dinner at Wyatt’s - Victoria Gordon A typing error in her resume had led Justine's new employer to believe she was a man. She'd been hired for her skills and experience, so why was he that angry? Wyatt Burns, Justine decided, was insolent and chauvinistic, and she told him so. "Don't go out of your way to provoke me, Miss Ryan," he warned, and that was an irresistible challenge. But playing games with Wyatt Burns meant playing by his rules -- and for very high stakes indeed! On September Hill - Leigh Michaels His proposal was far from flattering. Under the circumstances, Carey had no alternative but to accept Brandon Scott's marriage proposal. Otherwise, her younger sister would find herself out of a job and facing criminal charges. Brandon arrogantly admitted that he wanted a wife with poise and intelligence to run his house, host his parties and not fly off in a jealous rage when, occasionally, a rare and interesting woman would catch his fancy. In return, Carey would have all the trappings of wealth -- jewelry, fashions, servants, power--and a husband who was not above blackmail. Conflict in Paradise - Sally Wentworth "We don't want you on Aparoa, Major!" Tansy told him bluntly. "I hate everything you stand for -- war, violence and the belief that you can fight force with force!" Major Blake Aston had come to Aparoa to explore the tiny South Pacific island as a possible refuelling base. Tansy Harland, the local doctor, headed the island's hostile resistance. The Major's warning: "You can't possibly win, Tansy. You'll only get hurt fighting me!" just spurred her on. The outcome was inevitable!
