Mucho
Calor!
Dorian's a suave well-dressed lawyer who specializes in men's rights issues.
Rita's an agony columnist with a mean feminist bias and an addiction to coffee. One blind date for these two is one date too many.
'Till Rita discovers that this tall, athletic brother not only looks like coffee, he smells warm and inviting too.
But the guy makes a living tearing babies out of their mamas' arms and handing them over to their papas! He's built a career around making sure his clients' ex-wives don't get the alimony they deserve for putting up with their rat of a husband in the first place! Doesn't that make him the Devil's minion?
But ooh, touching him feels so good, it almost makes her change her mind...
(Harlequin Kimani, April '08)

Backpacking
around France isn't just a dream come true for Rissa; it's a desperately needed
escape from the pain of the past year, in which both her mother and sister were
lost to a terrible illness.
Then everything she owns is stolen. In strolls Frankie, an endearing, if willful, teenage girl who takes Rissa under her wing. The offer of a clean, dry place to sleep is impossible to resist - except that Frankie's older brother, Evan, isn't too happy about her habit of "bringing home strays and hangers-on".
If it wasn't for the fact that the alternative to his grudging accommodation is a night sleeping on a bench at the train station, Rissa would be only to glad to leave with her pride intact. She agrees to stay just one night, and in the morning, she'll be off to seek her fortune elsewhere.
But then Evan makes her an offer she can't refuse...
