Hell, he should be in a relaxation coma after everything the two of them had shared over the last few hours. Instead, he was wide-awake, staring into the fire, thinking. So far, he didn’t much care for his thoughts, either. Scrubbing one hand across his face, he tightened ...

Lassiter. Colleen glanced out the window of the bedroom that had been hers for the past several weeks and smiled sadly. She was going to miss this place almost as much as she would miss J.D. himself. But it was always like this for her, she thought sadly. As a private nurs...
“I can tell.” “Charming, is it?” Maura Donohue straightened up to her full, if less-than-imposing height. “Do you believe I’m so easily swayed by a smooth-talking man?” “Easily?” Jefferson laughed. “We’ve known each other for the b...
God, it was good to be home again. But how could she sleep? Thoughts of Culhane, and Mab and Nora, and Bezel—and Culhane, mostly—kept stomping through her mind. There was too much to think about.Damn him, anyway. This was all Culhane’s fault. She’d never asked for a destiny. Hadn’t she been happy...
King Eight It was a perfect day to be out on the water. Melinda’s hair was in a thick braid to keep it out of her eyes. She wore a bright red tank top and a pair of white shorts and sneakers to help keep her footing on deck. She came up from the shadows below, stepped into brilliant sunshine, the...
Jesse stared at her, his chest heaving with his effort to calm his breathing. What had happened? Miranda reached out a hand for him, but he stepped back. Her hair was coming loose from her once neat braid. Long, soft tendrils curled down around her face. Her cheeks were flushed, her lips parted ...
He hit Answer and his brother’s face appeared on the screen. “I hate Wyoming.” Mike laughed. Sean looked haggard, on edge. His eyes were narrowed, whisker stubble covered his jaws and the scowl he wore looked as if it had been permanently etched int...
It had been so long since she’d felt anything like this. For the past two years, she’d forced herself to forget just how good it had always been between her and Sam. She’d had to, to survive his absence. Had to put it out of her mind so that she could try to rebuild her life without him. &n...
Ronan Connolly pounded on the brightly painted blue front door a few more times, then paused to listen. Not a sound from inside the house, though he knew too well that Laura was in there. Hell, he could practically feel her, standing just on the other side of the damned door. &n...

Griffin said later that night, and Nicole heard the oh, so patient, genius-to-moron tone in his voice. “Wow, you’re right,” Nicole said, widening her eyes and blinking a couple of times for the dumb-blonde effect. “I’ve never had to pay bills or work out a budget. Is it a lot of math?” A second o...
Eileen said a half hour later as she slid into a seat at the pedestal table in the kitchen, “all of the old myths and legends about Faeries are so far-off what Culhane and Quinn talk about, it’s funny.”“Big surprise,” Bezel quipped from his post on a stool at the counter. He shifted position on h...

Marie Santini stared out through the front windows of her auto repair shop at the man standing in her driveway. It wasn’t easy to get a good look at him, what with the holly and snowmen painted on the window glass, but she gave it a try. Tall, she thought, dark hair, cut short, aviator-style sung...
He continued to be her guide as she grew more and more accustomed to her new life. But somehow he managed to keep their conversations centered on business, or the resort itself.

Carla Candellano Wyatt knew it the minute she walked into her husband’s office. Jackson shot her a look that practically screamed “guilt.” And her brother Nick actually winced when he looked at her.

“Will you shut up already?” Mike shot Jo a quick, uneasy glance. “She’s fine. No harm done.” “Yeah.” Jo snorted. “She’s fine. You won’t be, as soon as Emma tells her mother. That happens and we’re—I mean you’re—dead meat.” Sunlight glanced off Jo’s sunglasses and seemed to bounce right into Mike’...
she cried, “Nikki’s gone. Nikki! Nikki baby, come to Mommy.” She jumped to her feet as yet one more howl sounded out, sending shivers down her spine.
