Hunter Phillips never
thought he'd fall in love, but when he saw her honey blond hair,
sparkling blue eyes and adoring smile, his heart melted. Only problem
was, she was eight months old.
The niece he'd inherited certainly changed his life. These days the hip bachelor was strictly a one-woman man. Until he met Jeannie Ross.
She knew babies; babies were her business. And when she helped him clean farina off his shirt and a wet spot from his pants, Hunter knew what he was missing.
And that's when he knew that becoming an instant father didn't mean he was no longer a single man...

Success didn't have the power to destroy
Or did it? Meg Lindstrom had always been afraid to find out. After her sister's heroic death, Meg had given up her career as a photographer and opened up a limousine service, but a camera was never very far from her hands.
Now Meg stood on the threshold of a new adventure. She'd been left an estate in the remote hills of New Hampshire where she must complete one last job for a former friend and mentor. A job she shared with novelist Joe Alessio.
Meg should have been worried about the weeks she'd spend alone with Joe. She should have dreaded his writer's curiosity and imagination, for both would challenge her talent, her determination and her heart.
