He helps them, but only because he's an honourable man. Lydie is shocked to discover she now owes Jonah a fortune! Then he delivers an emotional bombshell: the only way he'll allow Lydie to repay him is with her hand in marriage.

Whatever the circumstances, Elyn was determined to make the best of the situation--she'd just stay out of Max's way. But that was impossible once the two were snowbound in a mountain cabin--especially when Max demanded Elyn's full attention!

A little excitement was what she wanted So Josslyn's sudden assignment to Egypt came as a delightful surprise. Pity she couldn't say the same about her new boss. Thane Addison.
