Her Knight In A Shining Auto.

Sydney McKnight is looking for Mr Convenient, not Mr Right. Her dad insists that Sydney be settled…so she asks the first guy she sees to act as her boyfriend. This gorgeous stranger is magnetic but Sydney has sacrificed her heart before. She isn't about to give it away, even to a man who revs her engine like none other!

Burke Holden is taken aback when Sydney requests he be her pretend paramour. After all, the single dad hasn't exactly been Mr Romance since his ex left him and their son. But as he gets to know lovely Sydney, the bachelor might be willing to give love another shot. Will Sydney and Burke drive off into the sunset on their happily-ever-after…or will the past throw a wrench in their fairy-tale ending?

When opposites collide…the plot thickens 

When former Special Forces agent Jack Garner opens his door to Erin Riley, he makes two things clear: he won't sleep with her, and he writes alone. Clearly, fame and fortune have done nothing to brighten this bestselling author's brooding manner. But his second book is long overdue, and Erin is there to jumpstart his writing…if not his heart. 

Bright, chatty and positive, Erin is like a sunny day to Jack's perpetual night. And even as she struggles to contain her sizzling attraction, she knows she can help Jack have a breakthrough. When the words finally start to flow, Jack starts to wonder if "once upon a time" could become "happily–ever–after." Now, that would be something worth writing about…

She'd wished to be a princess and live in a palace–a husband wasn't part of the package! And being kidnapped was not in heiress Jordan Bishop's plan, either. Especially when it was her father's idea of matchmaking, and the hero was tall, dark and deceptive Jonathan Prince Patterson. After all, what kind of man needed to kidnap a wife? She'd teach him–by faking amnesia and forcing his confession.

But this prince had more charm than Jordan had bargained on. His slow, sexy smile begged her to succumb. But surrender would mean baring her heart and confessing her own deceptions.
