Kathleen Creighton – In Defense of Love
          Courtroom artist Brady Flynn hadn’t meant to get mixed up with Judge Michael Snow, or with the danger shadowing his life. Then a speeding car nearly ran them both down, and Brady’s sketch of the driver plunged her into a maelstrom of terror, even while it brought her closer to this enigmatic but fascinating man. 
          Michael wasn’t as cold and aloof as he’d always seemed, and Brady’s warmth and enthusiasm for living were just what he needed to draw him out. But their relationship became a race against time. Would they break free of the darkness, or would the killer find them first, cutting short their chance for love?

Marie Ferrarella – Her Special Angel
          As she lit a candle in the mission at San Juan Capistrano, Jacki Brannigan knew only a miracle would save her ranch from foreclosure. Then from out of nowhere came the answer to her prayers. Lean, rugged Gabriel Goodfellow, a drifter from "up North," became her new ranch hand, working for home cooking and a place to hang his hat. 
          But was the man who mended fences with superhuman speed something more than flesh and blood? His kisses inflamed her body and soul…but what was the secret he couldn’t share? Wings? He certainly made her feel like a woman. Could a mere mortal find heaven in the arms of her special angel?

Cathy Gillen Thacker Daddy Christmas
          First comes…pregnancy

          Deep down, from the first moment they’d met, Matt knew Gretchen was the woman he wanted to spend the rest of his life with.

Ellen James – Home for Christmas
          Kiss a tall, dark Texan under the mistletoe!
          Robert Beltramo was back in Texas, and Gwen Ferris was stuck with–but only till Christmas! He’d come to claim his inheritance–half of her restaurant. Though what a wildly successful advertising executive wanted with a restaurant was anybody’s guess! 
          Like it or not–and Gwen didn’t–they were not fifty-fifty partners. And they’d go on being unwilling partners unless she’d agree to Robert’s plan. Robert, being Robert, always had a plan. And his plans always infuriated her. 
          His plan A had been to buy Gwen out, plan B to driver her out, and this plan C of his…well that was a doozy! Still, if Gwen could make it through to Christmas Eve with her heart and restarant intact, it was winner take all…!
