Love
in a Small Town: Ten Homespun and Heartwarming Contemporary Romances (Crimson
Romance Bundle)
California
Sunset: Casey Dawes
Divorced mother Annie Gerhard meets rugged new
bookstore owner John Johnson at the worst possible time in her life. Her high
tech company is threatening to lay her off if she doesn’t move from California
to New Jersey and her 15-year-old son David is causing trouble. The recession
has hit Silicon Valley hard and there are no jobs for a middle manager, even if
she hates what she does. And this is no time for romance, no matter how good
the man looks in his jeans.

John has escaped Montana memories of a deceased wife
and betraying girlfriend by buying an independent bookstore in California. He’s
got bigger problems than falling for a spunky woman with control issues.
Keeping a bookstore afloat in a recession and finding a home where he can
stable his horse are all he can handle right now.

Unless . . .

John and Annie must both face their pasts in order
to greet the future. Can they risk it?

Slow
Ride: Kat Morrisey
Kyla O’Grady hit the gas and drove her Mustang out
of Rock River, Pennsylvania with one goal in mind: find somewhere to start
over. Her life had gone sideways back home and Kyla needs something new,
something fresh, and she needs to find the music again. But on a stretch of
road off the coast of Maine, her car has other ideas. Broken down just inside
the town limits of Ashten Falls, Maine, Kyla is stranded.

Cooper Moretto has a problem. In fact, the whole
town of Ashten Falls has a problem in the form of a corrupt town official.
Cooper had enough on his plate to last a lifetime, but on a stretch of highway
heading into the town he spots a ’67 Mustang Coupe and does what any decent
mechanic would do: stop to help. But getting this car back on the road is the
last thing on his mind when he sees its owner, singing as if she weren’t in the
middle of nowhere.

Kyla is speeding away from her past, unsure how to
move forward. Cooper has been on cruise control, just hoping to get through
every day without being arrested or harassed. Can the two slow down long enough
to see that maybe the answers to both their problems lie in each other? And can
they survive when enemies that are lurking in the shadows try to destroy them
both?

Home: Christine S. Feldman
No woman ever really forgets her first love. Callie
Sorenson is no exception. Hers was tall, tanned, and – as her older brother’s
best friend – completely off limits.

Danny McCutcheon.

It’s a name that Callie hasn’t spoken in years, even
if the man to whom it belongs has never really been all that far from her
thoughts. Or her heart. But now a twist of fate will bring her back to the
childhood home she left behind years ago, and to the hometown boy for whom she
secretly longed.

When her mother takes a bad fall and breaks her hip,
Callie leaves the bright lights of New York City to fly back west and help with
the rehabilitation. It’s a tense homecoming due to a long time estrangement
between mother and daughter, and it drives Callie to confront both a painful
personal loss and her unanswered questions about the father who abandoned her
when she was just a child. It also brings her face to face with Danny again,
and Callie quickly realizes that old feelings die hard.

But for Danny, it’s new feelings that are a problem.
Callie is not the young girl he remembers but a woman now, and a very desirable
one. They both have reasons to fight the growing attraction between them, but
the temptation may just prove to be too much to resist, despite some very real
risk to their hearts. The past casts a long shadow over the future, though, and
Callie will have to overcome it or else face losing the one man who means the
most to her.

S. Feldman writes both novels and feature-length screenplays, and she has
placed in screenwriting competitions on both coasts. She lives in the Pacific
Northwest with her ballroom-dancing husband and their beagle.

Lake Effect: Johannah Bryson

Shelby Aylesworth knows what real love feels like.
She also knows the pain of losing that kind of love. With her faithful collie
dog, Norman, she takes refuge on Whiskey Island to try to put her life back together.
When Norman arranges a most unusual introduction to the island’s newest
resident, Shelby finds herself wondering if it isn’t time to stop grieving and
start living.

Wyeth Packard has come to Whiskey Island under the
guise of restoring and making profitable an old vineyard and manor house. What
he really wants is some peace and quiet away from the fast pace of NYC. Being
considered one of the city’s most eligible has thrown him into the path of
every gold digging society princess out there. He longs to find a balance but
has given up on ever finding a woman who will love him for who he is, not what
he has.

Together they navigate the slippery slope of what it
means to begin again. Can a new love fill the void left by an old love?

All
About Charming Alice: J. Arlene Culiner
Alice Treemont has given up hope of meeting the
right man and falling in love. Living in depopulated Blake’s Folly, a community
of rusting cars, clapboard shacks and thirsty weeds, she cooks vegetarian
meals, rescues unwanted dogs and protects the most unloved creatures on earth:
snakes. What man would share those interests? Certainly not Jace Constant whose
life in Chicago includes elegant women, fine dining and contemporary art. He’s
in Nevada doing research for his new book but definitely won’t be staying: he
hates the desert’s bleakness, the dust on his fine leather shoes and the dog
hair on his cashmere sweaters. As for snakes — they terrify him.

So why does the air sizzle each time Alice and Jace
meet? Why are they so fascinated by each other? Their feelings might go deeper
than raw desire, but any long-term relationship is clearly doomed.

In need of juicy gossip, the other 52 residents of
Blake’s Folly have decided Alice has been alone for long enough. The attraction
between her and Jace is so obvious, why worry about differences? If you trust
in love, solutions do appear. But don’t those solutions call for too many
compromises, too much self-sacrifice?

Born
in New York, raised in Toronto, J.Arlene Culiner has spent most of her life in
England, Germany, Turkey, Greece, Hungary and the Sahara but now resides in a
300-year-old former inn in a French village of no real interest. Much to
everyone’s dismay, she rescues and protects all living creatures — especially
spiders, bats and snakes; her wild (or wildlife) garden is a classified
butterfly and bird reserve. She can be found at: www.j-arleneculiner.com and at: www.jill-culiner.com
Broken
Wings, Soaring Hearts: Beverly A. Rogers
Hailey Holman is a woman determined to keep her
dad’s memory and his dream of reopening their small-town Texas base station
alive. Jack Stinson is looking for a peaceful place to escape the rat race of
the big city life and big city business of his own family’s airplane
manufacturing business.

What a perfect match. Other than the fact that her
mom hates the flying business with a passion and fights Hailey’s every effort,
and Jack’s dad fought his every effort to make the break, then disowned him for
leaving. Throw in two town bullies who insist on opening a base station of
their own and reeking havoc on Hailey’s plans and her own determination not to
get personally involved with the employees, and it’s anything but smooth
sailing.

But these two focused pilots might just be surprised
how things can work out with enough stubbornness . . . and faith.

Beverly
A. Rogers is a Texas girl who writes with a heart as big as the Lone Star
State. Her idea of a romantic man isn’t someone who will promise her the moon
and the stars. It’s someone who will walk on the beach holding her hand,
watching the moon and the stars from her eyes . . . and never complain about
sand in his boots.  Learn more about Bev at www.BeverlyARogers.com.

Jamie Sullivan is a fun-loving, widowed mother of
twin five-year old boys. A 
creative goldsmith with her own line of designer charms, she is determined to forge her own unique brand of success. Jamie guards a painful secret that leads her to be emphatic about not letting a man into her life.

elementary school Jamie’s children will attend. After single-handedly bringing up his daughter while earning his doctorate and proving himself to the school’s board of directors and the community, he feels burned out. Come the end of the semester, Nick is taking a year off to travel the world. 

When they meet, an instant attraction blazes through both. Nick and Jamie soon
find their hard

earned peace of mind threatened by meddling matchmakers, old rivalries, and children who can’t keep their feet out of their mouths. But Nick’s not interested in starting over and raising kids again, and Jamie’s sure she can’t trust her heart. Will they be able to nurture their friendship and attraction
into something that can last forever?

Without Wings: Mari Manning
A war widow at twenty-six, Linnea Reyes is haunted
by the soul-shattering fight she had with her husband just before he led his
detachment into the ambush that killed him. When one of the wounded soldiers
from her husbands battalion asks her to help save his family’s farm, she jumps
at the chance for redemption. Unfortunately, she runs straight into a six-foot
roadblock – the soldier’s older brother who has plans of his own.
After resigning from a promising army career to help
his mother and wounded brother, Jesse McCormick is at the lowest point in his
life. Now they are about to lose the family’s organic farm and only one plan
will earn him enough money to get his family out of debt and him off the farm –
a dangerous assignment with a paramilitary group. He can brush aside the
protests of his worried family, but the good intentions of Linnea Reyes prove
to be more than he can handle.

the Rules: Melinda Dozier
A forbidden love affair in the past has led Hope
Robinson, a middle school principal, to Harbor Bay, Florida, where she commits
herself to play by the rules. This can be difficult for a perpetual klutz,

Luckily, she has Dr. Colin Calaway on her side, a
widower and father of a student, who is ready to give love another try. When
Colin convinces Hope they should explore the connection between them, a steamy
romance develops, though it could destroy them both. They must decide if their
jobs—and their hearts—are worth the risk.
