Her Mothers Keeper

Gwen Lacrosse left town a starry-eyed innocent headed for the big city and returned home a savvy, sophisticated woman.

But her mother's maddening new boarder enticed her as no one had before.

Luke Powers was reputed to be an expert in both words and women

— and soon he was turning Gwen's cool reason into something else entirely...

Local Hero

Hester Wallace is proud of her independence. She needs only one man in her life — her nine-year-old son, Radley. But when Rad starts idolising their neighbour, Mitch Dempsey, Hester wonders if her son needs a male role model.

Hester would do anything for her boy, but inviting Mitch into their lives is dangerous. She might start to rely on Mitch...or worse, fall in love with him!
