Excerpt:
His gaze was everywhere, almost as though he were touching her.
Then it lingered on her breasts for a heated second before traveling up to her
eyes. His face was clenched, and had this been any other man than the one that
had broken her heart, she would have jumped him, because no man had ever looked
at her like that or evoked such an immediate, physical want in her. So instead
she did what any self-saving, smart woman would do. She reached for Mrs.
Jacobs’s purple and pineapple printed raincoat and enveloped herself in it.
“Oh God, it’s like straight out of a nightmare,” Aiden said. He
even took a step back.
She breathed an inward sigh of relief. At least that problem was
solved. She backed up a little bit. She noticed he still had the stubble thing
going on. And he wasn’t wearing a jacket today, even though it looked like
rain. He was wearing faded, worn-in jeans that seemed to be made to hug and
emphasize all his good parts, which happened to be everything. Then there was
the T-shirt he was wearing that emphasized how much he’d filled out in the
years since he’d been gone. Except the stomach, that was flat and…her eyes
snapped up to his. Stay on track. “Yes? You needed to see me about something?”
Aiden gave his head a shake. “I can’t think with that thing on
you.”
She hugged it tighter and backed up another step. Before she knew
it she was standing in one of the changing rooms.
“It’s not up to you to like what I wear.”
“That’s not yours.”
She shrugged.
“You’re wearing it because you don’t like me looking at you.”
She rolled her eyes. “As if. You looking at me is as boring as…a
horse on a farm glancing over at me.”
His lips twitched, and she observed a dimple appearance. The glint
in his eyes unfortunately didn’t match the tone of the dimple, and he took two
large steps forward so that he was now in the doorway. “You’re lying,” he said
with another dimple flash.
She lifted her chin and looked him square in the eye, even though
her pulse was racing and, dear God, she could smell him, and he smelled so
good. Like man and Aiden and old Aiden and…
“What are you thinking about?”
She waved a hand in front of her face. “Nothing. I was thinking
that I don’t know why you’re trying to prove I’m a liar.”
“I have my reasons. So back to what we were talking about.”
“I can’t remember.”
“You don’t like me looking at you.”
“You’re wrong. You looking at me is just the same as…Mrs. Jacobs
looking at me.”
She had always been a bad liar. Judging by his sexy,
you’re-such-a-liar smile, he thought so, too. He braced his arms on either side
of the doorway. His shirt lifted, and she caught a glimpse of hard abs. Omigod,
she was going to cry.
“Somehow I don’t think Mrs. Jacobs looks at you the way I do.”

Synopsis: Florist Claire Holbrook has always played by the rules her entire life, but breaks them to spend one night with sexy lone wolf Jake Manning, a man she's adored since she was a teenager. Six weeks later things get complicated when she discovers they created a bond that will last a lifetime...
Jake has never played by the rules. Getting Minister Holbrook's daughter pregnant wasn't part of any life plan, but he won't run from his responsibilities. He'll step up and be the best man he can, even if he doesn't have a clue where to begin. The more time he spends with Claire, though, the more he wants her, and the harder it is to get close because that would mean sharing the one thing he hasn't with anyone—the truth and his heart.

Now Evan needs her help. In a month, he'll have the job opportunity of a lifetime...he just needs a wife to get it.
Artist Grace Matheson is down on her luck again…until she walks into Evan Manning’s office. When her sexy former hero hears that she needs work, he offers her a job and a home—if she’ll pretend she's his fiancée. Grace knows she shouldn't fall for him. Once the month is up, Evan will be back to his old life. But the more time they spend together, the more real their feelings become—and the more likely heartbreak is.
