His heart is unavailable.
Luckily, her interest lies in the rest of him...

Though she was just a girl when they first met,
Caroline Tolbertson's infatuation with David Cameron
remainds undimmed. Now fate has brought the
handsome Scotsman back to Brighton for what promises
to be an unforgettable summer. Soon, Caroline
will have to choose a husband, but for now she is free to
indulge her curiosity in things of a passionate nature.
That is, if David will agree to teach her.

Past mistakes have convinced David he'll make a terrible
husband, though he'll gladly help the unconventional
Caroline find a suitor. Unfortunately, she has something
more scandalous in mind. As the contenders for her
hand begin to line up, her future seems assured... provided
David can do the honorable thing and let them have her.

When a spirited young woman is determined to
break Society's rules, all a gentleman can
do is lend a hand... or more.

THE GRAVEYARD OF THE PACIFIC.

It may be summer, but schoolteacher Anna Silver's trip to
the coastal town of Bamsfield is anything but a vacation.
She's on the run, desperate to stay one step ahead of her
father's murderer and determined to track down the one
man she's been told to trust: her father's old cell mate,

kind, elderly artist but a dangerous hot alpha male with
blood on his hands.

Loyal to the core, Brent would never turn away his friend's
daughter when she comes seeking help. He can't deny Anna
his protection...just as he can't deny the instantaneous
attraction he struggles to keep in check. But as their

own guilty secrets, and his venal, scheming wife holds the key
to them, trapping him in a hate-filled marriage. But against his
will he's fascinated by Bryony, seeing past the scars on her face
to show her the beauty she never knew she had. Bryony must
uncover the truth and attempt to preserve her father's legacy
before things go too far and she falls in love with a man who

Low Pressure by Sandra Brown


Back blurb:

" Bellamy Lyston was only 12 years old when her older sister Susan was killed on a stormy
Memorial Day. Bellamy's fear of storms is a legacy of the tornado that destroyed the crime
scene along with her memory of what really happened during the day's most devastating 
moments.

Now, 18 years later, Bellamy has written a sensational, bestselling novel based on Susan's
murder. Because the book was inspired by the tragic event that still pains her family, she
published it under a pseudonym to protect them from unwanted publicity. But when an
opportunistic reporter for a tabloid newspaper discovers that the book is based on fact,
Bellamy's identity is exposed along with the family scandal.

Moreover, Bellamy becomes the target of an unnamed assailant who either wants the truth
about Susan's murder to remain unknown or, even more threatening, is determined to get
vengeance for a man wrongfully accused and punished.

In order to identify her stalker, Bellamy must confront the ghosts of her past, including Dent 
Carter, Susan's wayward and reckless boyfriend - and an original suspect in the murder case.
Dent, with this and other stains from his past, is intent on clearing his name, and he needs
Bellamy's sealed memory to do it. But her safeguarded recollections -once unlocked - pose 
dangers that neither could foresee and puts both their lives in peril.

As Bellamy delves deeper into the mystery surrounding Susan's slaying, she discovers
disturbing elements of the crime which call into question for the people she holds most dear.
Haunted by partial memories, conflicted over her feelings for Dent, but determined to learn the truth, she won't stop until she reveals Susan's killer.

That is, unless Susan's killer strikes her first... "

So far so good!

Naked Truth by Amy J. Fetzer


Back blurb:

Clandestine operative Alexa Gavlin has nothing left. No country. No contacts. And no memory. Thirty days have been chemically erased. Stolen by whom - she knows. Why - that's anyone's guess. Accused of murder and treason, Alexa becomes the hunted, trapped by what she can't remember and betrayed by her own people. Struggling to refit the puzzle before someone catches her between the crosshairs, her new mission is to stay alive long enough to learn the truth. Till she meets the man behind the laser sight..

Killian Moore is a lot of things, former Marine, retrieval expert, and pissed off. Blackmailed into hunting down the operative suspected of ruining his career, Killian sees Alexa as nothing more than some sexy vital statistics and the means to clear his name. His mission is specific, bring her in or take her out - until he locks horns with the beautiful agent and everything he believes and feels unravels with each encounter. He tells himself she's an expert at deception, yet what they share between the sheets is raw, tender, and very real. But she's on the run again, and Killian knows if he doesn't catch her, the enemy will. Alexa has every reason to be wary, but Killian desperately needs her to believe in him. Cut off from their government, betrayed and hunted, they can rely on no one but each other. From the jungles of Colombia to the sparkling metropolis of Hong Kong, as each piece falls into place, Alexa and Killian learn that nothing is as it seems, and stopping terrorists set on a collision course will test their precious trust to the absolute limits.
