Nancy Martin

Impoverished Philadelphia heiress Nora Blackbird has agreed to wed Mick Abruzzo, son of New Jersey's most notorious mobster, leaving the city's bluebloods in shock. Then Nora and her sisters get some ominous news-Sweet Penny Devine, ex-Hollywood starlet and daughter of the Philadelphia Devines, has mysteriously disappeared. Even stranger, her family wants her declared dead pronto. Could someone have plotted her final act? Now it's up to the Blackbird sisters to snoop among the snooty-until they uncover the truth.

A ROYAL PAIN The pregnant Princess Cordelia had a surefire scheme for wiggling out of inheriting the throne of her tiny, stuffy country--have a baby with someone penniless, unrefined and downright common. Someone who would horrify her parents and her subjects. Someone like Crash Craddock: beach bum. THE ULTIMATE COMMONER Crash knew he was broke...but he also knew he could offer a woman like Cordelia something worth more than money--himself! He had what it took to teach this blue-blooded brat how to be a real mother, a real wife...and a real woman ripe for love! CAN THESE OPPOSITES ATTRACT?

When lively, brash Liza Baron arrives home unexpectedly, she moves into the old family lodge - where silent, mysterious Cliff Forrester has been living in seclusion for years.
