Sure, Poppy Sullivan believes in love…but love at first sight? Not likely. That's why she's determined to stop her good friend from marrying the wrong woman. So she sets to work immediately and walks right into the very impressive chest of Beck Lefebvre. Not a good omen, considering how things ended up the last time he was in town. She isn't surprised to see Beck at his cousin's wedding, but she's appalled at his assumption that he deserves a second chance. She's equally appalled at her inclination to give it to him. No way! He shattered her heart once. Poppy won't let him do it again, no matter how charming he thinks he is.

With this fling...

Wedding planner Grace Monroe has her own happily-ever-after all figured out. She even has a five-year plan for getting there. But Owen Ford can't be part of it — no matter how attractive she finds him. Owen isn't the marrying kind. Even if he was, he doesn't have the qualities she's looking for in a husband.

But resisting Owen is impossible — and one night of passion isn't nearly enough. Yet expecting more isn't an option either. Grace needs to end things and get back to her plan.  She's looking for Mr. Right and Owen can only ever be Mr. Right Now…

Does she dare have seconds?

Mallory Ford hasn't seen her ex, Travis Kincaid, since she caught him in a rather compromising position a year ago. Now he's back in town, and while heat still flickers along Mal's skin when he's near, she's already learned her lesson — the oh-so-hard way.

Except that Travis is playing to win Mal's heart, for good. Which is perfectly ridiculous. Nothing can put Mal's heart back together again, especially not the man who broke it. Some mistakes can't be erased... unless Travis can prove to Mal that what they have is too perfect to forget.

There's sizzle in this kitchen!
 
Chef Julia Laurent has poured everything into her late mother's restaurant. When the time is right, she'll buy it herself. Before she can, the Ford family swoops in and buys it out from under her! Suddenly Julia has a new boss — the sexy and intriguing Donovan Ford.

Donovan and his family are legends in the restaurant business, so Julia will go along with his plans…for now. The chemistry between them is undeniable, but Julia remains focused on her goal of owning this place. Donovan has the power to help her — Julia simply has to convince him that he wants to.

Sabrina Ryan is a successful reporter–until one mistake sends to her tiny hometown. But when she takes a job at the local paper, she finds an unexpected perk. She lands an interview with the town's oh–so–sexy mayor, Noah Barnes. He's hot, he's charming and suddenly her days are looking up.

But even as things heat up between them, Noah seems hesitant. Okay, so Sabrina has a reputation for slanting her articles to get what she wants. That doesn't mean she's using him, does it? As Sabrina starts to earn Noah's trust–and glimpses the man behind the mayoral role–she finds it'll take more than words to win his heart.
