Burning for you...

Some men are off limits. Close friends of your ex–husband, for instance. Or firefighters who work in the same building as you. Yet despite her best judgment, librarian Lauren Foster can't help noticing fire captain Jake Davis whenever he jogs by...shirtless. They've always been friends, but all it takes is one not–so–chance meeting at a local bar and one not–quite–innocent walk home to ignite a fierce, uncontrollable desire between them.

Widower Jake Davis has tried to ignore the spark he feels whenever Lauren's around, but once he sees her curves in a little black dress, there's no turning back. No matter how often she says she's all wrong for him, the sexy, outspoken divorcee is driving him wild in the best possible way. Maybe she's just blowing off steam. Or maybe he can convince her to fan these flames into something deeper, hotter, and truer than they ever expected...

There's no hiding from sizzling chemistry…

Tom Duncan lives by the letter of the law. But no one has tempted him–or confused him–more than free–spirited Isabelle, who arouses his suspicion and his desire. As their connection grows, and their nights get hotter, they find their wild attraction might shake everything he stands for–and expose everything she has to hide.

She gives herself one explosive, fantasy–filled night with Chase. The next day it's back to plain Jane and safe men.

But when her beloved brother becomes a murder suspect, it's Chase who comes to her rescue. And Jane discovers that a man who''s been around the block knows a thing or two about uncovering the truth...

He may be temptation on wheels, but Sophie's not looking for trouble!

Maybe Sophie's buttoned–up facade fools some, but Alex knows a naughty smile when he sees one. Despite their parents' checkered pasts, he's willing to take some risks to find out the truth about the town librarian. He figures a little fling might be just the ticket to get his mind off of his own family drama. But what he finds underneath Sophie's prim demeanor might change his world in ways he never expected.
