I haven't seen Micah in five years, and now he suddenly shows up in town. He wants me back, and I still have feelings for him...but I don't know if I can let him back into my life after he left me like that. And what will he do when he finds out my son is his?

Adele. I had no idea that meeting a man like him would change me forever. It's already hard enough chasing reports throughout London. Now I have to deal with those piercing blue eyes and the danger that lurks nearby. Maddox. The beautiful journalist sent to me was quite a surprise. Smart, strong, and independent, I've never met a woman like her in or out of the boardroom, bedroom or anywhere else. I'll never fight for something as badly as I'll fight for her.

Sidney's matchmaking business is suffering. When her best friend convinces her to put on a fake engagement ring to boost customer confidence in her, she reluctantly agrees. Couldn't hurt to try, right? And when her childhood crush comes walking in, she's glad to have her fake engagement as an excuse not to get involved with him. He shattered her heart 10 years ago, and she can't take another painful Blake incident.

Sure, I turned down my $9.6m football contract to join the Teams, but I'll never tell you the real reason why. The media has anointed me a selfless, patriotic American hero.

I gaze into her beautiful blue eyes and give her my word that she's safe with me. And my word is my bond. Then she is kidnapped.

After what Matt did to me, I had to leave LA. It was just too hard to stick around, even if I knew that I'd disappoint my team and fans. So, I returned to the south to lick my wounds, and ran straight into Charlie. My how time has changed. He's no longer the average kid from school. He's a Marine, a police officer and everything in my fantasies come alive to torment me. Worst of all? He sees through all my nonsense. I never thought I'd find someone who was worth risking it all. Will he do the same for me?

Pullum took a step back and gave Shondra the once over, from her curly hair, to her chest, to her bare knees, down to her stilettos. Her eyes were neutrally discerning, as though appraising an empty wall. Mostly, Pullum stared into Shondra's eyes, trying to bring out words and thoughts Shondra had never dared express aloud. Instead of answering, Pullum turned her gaze from Shondra back to the painting.
