By the Year 2000: MARRIAGE

What have you resolved to do by the year 2000?

Ten years ago in their wild college days Meg Danley and her two best friends made a vow that they'd all be married and settled by the time the millennium rolled around.

Meg is settled. She has everything she needs: a great apartment, an exciting career. Or so she thinks until her friends arrive on her doorstep determined to fulfil the vow. A serious manhunt is what they're proposing. Then they spot Jack Elliot the attractive single man who's come to visit his mother and declare him perfect for Meg.

Even the fact that Jack plans to return to his life in Maine doesn't discourage them. And suddenly Meg's no longer arguing. Suddenly a wedding by 2000 with Jack as the bridegroom is a definite possibility.","rating":"3.25","stock":0,"date":{"__className":"DateTime","date":"2012-07-06 00:00:00.000000","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"Australia/Sydney"},"sale_date":{"__className":"DateTime","date":"2012-07-06 00:00:00.000000","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"Australia/Sydney"},"product_id":12222,"isbn13":"9781460859872","title":"The Maine Man","seo":"the-maine-man","summary":"...","image":"https://harpercollins-millsandboon-au.imgix.net/covers/9781460859872.jpg?auto=format&w=298&blend=https://supadu-imgix.s3.amazonaws.com/harpercollins-millsandboon-au/EBOOK.png&blend-mode=normal&blend-size=inherit&blend-y=0","hide":false,"categories":[{"name":"Contemporary","type":"bisac","seo_name":"FIC027020"}],"scheduled":[]},{"description":"
Type R Men: Rescuers. Restless, reckless sometimes unsettling.

Dr. Alexandra Robbins may have a successful career as a psychologist in Chicago, but she's had a very unsuccessful marriage. Right now, she's in the middle of a messy divorce. What a relief to get away from her soon–to–be ex and head for a small town in Idaho to complete her study on Type R men \"rescuers,\" men compelled to risk their lives to save others.

Colin McIntyre caught Alex's attention when his daring rescue of a young child was shown on TV. He's obviously the ideal candidate for her research. Only, he doesn't like the idea of being a guinea pig. He likes her though. So maybe he'll cooperate just a little.

Sounds good to Alex. But the more time she spends with him, the more he fascinates her.

Soon Alexandra Robbins isn't just researching the Type R man anymore!","rating":"2.83","stock":0,"date":{"__className":"DateTime","date":"2012-07-06 00:00:00.000000","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"Australia/Sydney"},"sale_date":{"__className":"DateTime","date":"2012-07-06 00:00:00.000000","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"Australia/Sydney"},"product_id":12253,"isbn13":"9781460860267","title":"The Rescuer","seo":"the-rescuer","summary":"...","image":"https://harpercollins-millsandboon-au.imgix.net/covers/9781460860267.jpg?auto=format&w=298&blend=https://supadu-imgix.s3.amazonaws.com/harpercollins-millsandboon-au/EBOOK.png&blend-mode=normal&blend-size=inherit&blend-y=0","hide":false,"categories":[{"name":"Contemporary","type":"bisac","seo_name":"FIC027020"}],"scheduled":[]},{"description":"

A honeymoon of their own.

Toni Shaw can't believe she's actually agreed to research honeymoon resorts for her sister. If that's not bad enough, Kyle Brennan has agreed to do the same thing for the bridegroom. So how do two strangers go about selecting the ideal honeymoon? By trial and error, of course. Mostly error, Toni figures, as she and Kyle keep getting stuck in the most romantic places. Suddenly it's getting difficult to focus on her sister's honeymoon. It's much more fun to imagine hers and Kyle's.

SISTERS

A sister can be a woman's closest friend

A golden wedding usually means a family celebration.

But the Hardaway sisters drifted apart years ago. And each has her own reason for wanting no part of a family reunion. As plans for the party proceed, tensions mount, until it even begins to look as if their parents' marriage might fall apart before the big event. Can the daughters put aside old hurts and betrayals for the sake of the family?

Lisa Hardaway youngest of the sisters has come home under protest. Her new life, far away from Hurricane Beach and her family, had allowed her to put her past and her secret behind her. But now everything's out of control. Her parents are threatening to divorce, her ex–husband is marrying her sister and worst of all, she keeps running into Matt Connell, the man of her nightmares and of her dreams.","rating":"3.61","stock":0,"date":{"__className":"DateTime","date":"2012-07-06 00:00:00.000000","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"Australia/Sydney"},"sale_date":{"__className":"DateTime","date":"2012-07-06 00:00:00.000000","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"Australia/Sydney"},"product_id":13329,"isbn13":"9781460872758","title":"Lisa","seo":"lisa","summary":"...","image":"https://harpercollins-millsandboon-au.imgix.net/covers/9781460872758.jpg?auto=format&w=298&blend=https://supadu-imgix.s3.amazonaws.com/harpercollins-millsandboon-au/EBOOK.png&blend-mode=normal&blend-size=inherit&blend-y=0","hide":false,"categories":[{"name":"Contemporary","type":"bisac","seo_name":"FIC027020"}],"scheduled":[]},{"description":"

Grant, Colorado, isn't big enough to support two doctors so why have two doctors been offered the same position? And use of the same house?

That's what Dr. Tim Miller and Dr. Laurie Russell want to know.

Unfortunately, both the town council and the town's retiring physician think they have the right to choose the new doctor and neither side is backing down.

Neither are Tim and Laurie, who are left fighting tooth and nail for the practice and the town's loyalty at the same time as they're falling in love!","rating":"3.29","stock":0,"date":{"__className":"DateTime","date":"2012-07-06 00:00:00.000000","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"Australia/Sydney"},"sale_date":{"__className":"DateTime","date":"2012-07-06 00:00:00.000000","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"Australia/Sydney"},"product_id":13343,"isbn13":"9781460872918","title":"Doctors In The House","seo":"doctors-in-the-house","summary":"...","image":"https://harpercollins-millsandboon-au.imgix.net/covers/9781460872918.jpg?auto=format&w=298&blend=https://supadu-imgix.s3.amazonaws.com/harpercollins-millsandboon-au/EBOOK.png&blend-mode=normal&blend-size=inherit&blend-y=0","hide":false,"categories":[{"name":"Contemporary","type":"bisac","seo_name":"FIC027020"}],"scheduled":[]},{"description":"

There's a Naked Man in Her Bed!

Even worse, it's her ex–husband. Sexy, handsome, exciting–Adam Prescott's always been able to sweep Jen Hillard into bed. He's just never cared enough to sweep her into his heart.

But now that Jen's finally found the nerve to make a new life for herself, how could she have let this happen? Silly question. Well, okay, so what if she's done the one thing she'd sworn she'd never do–let Adam back into her bed? She's damned if she'll let him back into her life!

Her heart? Well, that's another matter. He's always been there.

HOME ON THE RANCH

\"Ellen James writes with warmth, wit and style. I look forward to each new book.\"
Debbie Macomber

The Blue Mesa Ranch, near Stillwell, New Mexico

Hallie Claremont She's the Blue Mesa's owner. Not that this is anything to brag about as far as Hallie's concerned. She inherited the place, and even she who knows nothing about ranching can tell the ranch needs work and lots of it. Still, she doesn't have any choice. With no money to her name, an adopted baby and a rebellious teenage brother to support, Hallie is now a rancher in the making. Of course, she's also a mother in the making, but she can be both she's sure of it!

Too bad that Hallie's new neighbour Dr. Gabe Miller doesn't see it that way. But no, the handsome doctor persists in seeing Hallie as a crisis in the making. Still, that doesn't explain why he's taken it upon himself to set her straight!

Michael Turner is the man next door and he's got problems!

He's an ex–cop turned P.I., who's pretending to be a writer.

His partner, normally the most rational of women, is pretending she's pregnant.

His eleven–year–old son whom he loves isn't pretending anything, but then, the boy's barely talking to him.

His father whom he loathes (no pretence here) is back in town.

And to top it all, he's becoming dangerously attracted to the woman next door, a woman he's been paid investigate, a woman who just might be pretending that she hasn't murdered her husband.","rating":"3.35","stock":0,"date":{"__className":"DateTime","date":"2012-07-06 00:00:00.000000","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"Australia/Sydney"},"sale_date":{"__className":"DateTime","date":"2012-07-06 00:00:00.000000","timezone_type":3,"timezone":"Australia/Sydney"},"product_id":13898,"isbn13":"9781460879252","title":"The Man Next Door","seo":"the-man-next-door","summary":"...","image":"https://harpercollins-millsandboon-au.imgix.net/covers/9781460879252.jpg?auto=format&w=298&blend=https://supadu-imgix.s3.amazonaws.com/harpercollins-millsandboon-au/EBOOK.png&blend-mode=normal&blend-size=inherit&blend-y=0","hide":false,"categories":[{"name":"Contemporary","type":"bisac","seo_name":"FIC027020"}],"scheduled":[]}],"scheduled":[],"products":[]}
