Keep her hands to herself?

Not easy for Emily Saunders, who's in Elk Crossing, Idaho, for a family wedding. She's double booked in the same hotel room with a sexy cop attending--of all things!--a hockey tournament. As a massage therapist, Emily's soon itching to soothe Jonah Betts's gorgeous muscles--both on and off the ice.

Jonah can't believe his luck--a sexy single woman sharing his cozy room, albeit temporarily. Okay, her orange bridesmaid dress is a disaster and her family is convinced he's actually her boyfriend. He's ready to go along with it even as he makes his play....

Until Emily is suddenly calling for a TIME-OUT! Will Jonah's fantasies be permanently iced?

Fashion writer Natalie Trent, fabric designer Isabel Parisi and accountant Arianne Sorenson were ready for a night they'd never forget. Last year they left the annual Monticello ball single...this time will be different. They're ready for some fun--the sexier the better!

For Natalie, running into the man who disappeared on her one year ago is more than surprising. But she has revenge on her mind, and she's going to make him beg for more!

Long-term relationships aren't in the cards for Isabel. But when one of her admirers decides tonight's the night they become more than friends, a little champagne and sweet talk is all the encouragement Isabel needs....

When Arianne and her boss feel sparks on the dance floor, it's all they can do to find the closest bedroom, damn the consequences! These women are willing to risk just about everything for one hot and steamy night, but it's the morning after that turns out to be more than they bargained for!

Sexy bartender Johnny Santini mixes one wicked martini. Or so efficiency expert Natalie Fanshaw discovers when she takes a seat at his beachfront bar one lonely night. It's Valentine's Day, and they're the only single people in the heart-strewn place!

Natalie knows she spends too much time with her spreadsheets--she's forgotten what it's like to be between the sheets. Johnny is such a charmer, mixing his signature cocktails while making her feel s-o-o-o very special. And when he asks her to help him create a fab new drink for the town's upcoming martini contest, Natalie can't say no.

A fantasy fling with Johnny could be a recipe for disaster. But hey, she could always claim to be under the influence!

Thrills...and chills?

It's time to live a little, Meggie Scofield decides at the town's masquerade party. Have a red-hot fling. Do the wild thing. And the masked stranger she meets that hot and steamy night is the perfect way to begin. This guy is sex-on-legs--and Meggie's determined to go out on a limb!

As the last bachelor up for grabs in chilly Bear Creek, Alaska, Caleb Greenleaf has been fending off women for months. But this gorgeous masked one is different, he senses. She sends his temperature--and libido--soaring out of control. It's a night he'll never forget. A thrilling experience he definitely wants to repeat.

But Caleb's delight soon turns to shock when he discovers she's none other than his nemesis--and sexy neighbor--Meggie Scofield. And she has no idea!

Manhattan reporter Kay Freemont spends her days writing about sex--and her nights wondering what all the hype is about. So when sexy, single Quinn Scofield places an advertisement in her magazine for a wife, Kay decides it's way past time she found out!

Although Kay knows she's too repressed to live out her most forbidden fantasies, under Quinn's imaginative tutelage she becomes more in tune with her own sensuality. This city girl thinks she has time for only a red-hot fling--unless Quinn has his way, and she accepts his offer of a lifetime of incredible sex!

Corfu's exotic beaches are a matchless place to meet true love...or at least to have a fabulous fling! And that's exactly what Philly Angelis needs. After all she's a survivor of unrequited love...and an embarrassingly rejected sexual proposition. Fleeing to Greece to soak in its sexy magic--as well as to find a hot guy to take her mind off her longtime crush Roman Oliver--seems the perfect antidote.

Roman can't believe what he's doing. Philly is his best friend's little sister--definitely hands-off! So why is he following her to Corfu? And why is he taking her outrageously delicious sexual proposition seriously? Maybe because Philly's all woman now--a woman who knows exactly what she wants. And God help him Roman's going to give it to her....

Delaney Walker has a secret. The celebrated designer of erotic lingerie is actually too "nice" to wear it. But when her fiancé says "I do" to someone else, Delaney decides to change her image. And she's going to start by going through with the boudoir photos she'd arranged for her groom-to-be. Only, little does she guess that once photographer Sam Martelli sets eyes on her, he'll insist on putting himself in the picture....

Sam has photographed hundreds of beautiful women, but none have affected him like Delaney. Even before she strips down to just a whisper of silk, casting off her inhibitions as well as her clothes, he has to have her. And thanks to a power failure, he does...again and again. But once the lights come back on, can Sam convince her that their one night was more than just a case of indecent exposure...?
