Paul Valverde is stretched to the limit, caring for an elderly relative while running a business and maintaining a full-time medical practice at St. Stephen's Hospital--with no time for a relationship. RN Carrington Hanover leaves her money-hungry fiance at the altar and moves on to a new job at St. Stephen's Hospital in Los Angeles. The next man in her life must love her, not her money. All work and no play has made Paul an unfulfilled man, and the resurrected redheaded crush from his youth is driving him to distraction.

Miranda Parkman's reunion with the handsome earl is bittersweet, to say the least. Eight years ago, Julian crushed the bloom of her first love, leaving her waiting for a proposal that never came. Now, she's in London, prepared to sacrifice the yearnings of her heart for a proper union with a respectable peer--until Julian puts himself in her path once again. When their renewed attraction culminates in an unintended seduction, they're forced to the altar, facing an uncertain future. Yet someone is determined to tear them apart. Will twisted stories and undeclared truths leave Miranda and Julian forever longing, or will true love guide them into overcoming their bittersweet past?

When you meet your match, be ready with a fallback plan.

The Happily Ever After Co., Book 3

Though proud of the number of successful matches her father has made over the years, Noelle Braddock vows never to be one of those desperate females. She can find her own husband, thank you very much. In fact, she’s already chosen him. A banker who’ll shower her with affection and security.

She can’t imagine why her father doesn’t approve of such a perfect match, but it’s a battle of wills she plans to win. Even when her father plays dirty by inviting a sweet-talking, buckskin-clad sharpshooter to stay the week before her wedding.

Lieutenant Zackary Dane is ready to settle down with a sturdy, good-natured, cookin’-and-cleanin’ female. One look at tempestuous, high-society Noelle, though, and his heart locks on target. She wants him too—she’s just too stubborn to admit her father is right.

Even if he can’t win her hand for himself, Zack feels honor-bound to show her that her fiancé is a lying bastard. Then Fate takes a notion to step in and wipe the slate clean—literally—with an accident that leaves Noelle with no memory. And Zack with one chance to fill her heart with what was meant to be…

Warning: Contains a loving father desperate for his daughter to see the perfect man is right in front of her upturned nose. A feisty heroine with a mile-wide independence streak, and a stalwart hero who’ll give it all to make her happy—even if it means sacrificing his heart.
