He’s loved her forever; she hates him with a passion. Why did she allow that kiss?
She’s sworn to live her life without pain
Everyone Georgiana ever loved has died. Now three months short of gaining her inheritance, she must spend her last summer at Castle Montgomery with her Aunt Millicent, and her abominable cousin, Jonathan Manning, the Earl of Montgomery.
A determined Nobleman
Jonathan has loved her for years. A kiss last summer left her in an aching daze of want, until she learned the truth: that he is a womanizer. Or is he? With time running out, this might be his last chance to show Georgiana the true depth of his feelings.
He’s called her a coward, a woman afraid to love, a woman unable to love. She hates him for that. Why can’t they simply enjoy what they have? Why does the pleasure he’s shown her have to mean love?
But Jon discerns there’s more here than fear. Her feelings run deeper than she knows. A baby might hold the key to showing him how To Love This Woman.
Patricia Pellicane lives with her husband on Long Island in New York. Her six children live in neighboring towns as do most of her sixteen grandchildren. Her favorite hobby is reading. Patricia insists her ideas for stories come while doing dishes. “Could anything be more boring? It’s nearly impossible to keep your mind from wandering.” In a recent interview she was asked: How hard or easy is it for you to write? Patricia’s response, “Someone once wrote. ‘Writing is easy. All you have to do is put a sheet of paper in a typewriter and stare at it until blood forms on your forehead’. Sometimes writing is exactly like that. And other times it’s a wondrous happening where words flow from mind to fingers to computer screen almost without conscious thought. It doesn’t matter which way it works for you. Once a writer begins the journey, they’re hooked. It’s a drug and you can’t stop looking for that next story, that next high.”

TEN YEARS AGO, SHE RIPPED HIS HEART OUT… BUT NOW SHE’S BACK AND SHE NEEDS HIM.
When movie star Carrie Evans begs her ordinary twin sister to switch lives with her for three weeks, all Carrie can think about is escaping the trappings of Hollywood. But returning to England throws her into the path of old flame Dan Stevenson, the boy she left behind—without telling him why. And Dan’s no longer the soft, dependable guy, quick to do her bidding. He’s hot, sexy and dangerous…everything her career-savvy self should run away from.
But she can’t.
When Carrie walked out of Dan’s life without a backward glance, she broke his heart. Now, she’s back begging him to help save her sister’s business. The fire is still there: he wants her, and she wants him. But forgiveness? Never. He’s not the boy he once was. He’s a man in control, used to getting what he wants, and he’ll help her, as well as do a whole lot more.
But can their hearts survive a second time around…especially when the truth of the past comes out?

The once elite College of United Monsters (C.U.M.) is still having financial troubles. In order to stay afloat, it has been forced to allow humans to register. Humans, in a monster school? Preposterous! Also, monsters are real and that was probably a bigger shock to the world than one school of them allowing humans to enroll.
Nape MacGuffin is a regular, ridiculous human. A student in the suddenly popular Historical Pottery Studies course, Nape finds himself facing off against his class’s biggest rivals: the students of Automobile Theory & Repair, who are convinced the pottery class is out to destroy them. Naturally, they have to get to the pottery students first. But, honestly—with a name like MacGuffin, you know the entire reason he’s in this story is to get kidnapped later on to serve as a plot device. You did know that…right?
It serves him right for having a punny name and attending monster college.
