Every book I write is special to me, but some have memories associated with them
that give the books a particular place in my heart. My Corporate Information
Systems duo is like that for me. Not only were they a couple of the first single
titles I ever wrote, but they paved the way for Kensington to eventually release
my Brava tradesize titles into mass market paperback as well. You could say they
were the antecedents of my upcoming new mass market original series from Grand
Central Forever Romance: Northern Fire (WILD HEAT - April '15), which I'm hugely
excited about. Cailkirn, Alaska is a quirky little town on the tourist route
where the winter may be cold, but the alpha men you find there are hot, hot, hot!
Equally as significant for me,
CHANGE THE
GAME and
WIN THE GAME were some of the first books I worked on with
the late and always missed Kate Duffy. I learned so much from her. She had such
a passion for romance and she *got* these stories in a way I was sure no editor
ever would. The titles she saddled them with though. ::shaking head:: Definitely
clever, but really long (hence the title changes for the digital re-release). I
loved "Come Up and See Me Sometime" & "Goodness Had Nothing to Do With It"
but even readers always referred to the books in shorthand.
They've never been released as eBooks and I'm delighted they are now available
in that format. I hope that readers who didn't get a chance to read them the
first time around (honestly small print runs for a new author) will now.
Hugs and happy reading!

In a high-stakes game of love, attraction, and desire, two people playing for
all the wrong reasons are about to discover how delicious it can be when plans
go deliciously awry and love is all that matters.
Like father, like daughter.
Thatβs what businessman Alex Trahern thinks about Isabel Harrison. If the
prestigious headhunter thinks she can steal his top employee, just like her
father stole his dadβs ideas, sheβs dead wrong. Alex is always a man with a
plan, and his plan is to get revenge on John Harrison through his daughter. But
thereβs no contingency plan for the impact Isabelβs sparkling green eyes and
honey brown hair have on the decidedly non-business side of his brainβ¦
If at first you donβt succeed, change the game.
After some relationship flameouts, Isabelβs decided to leave love out of it and
approach her search for a husband like finding a suitable job candidate. And
according to her list of requirements, Alex Trahern certainly has potential.
Heβs sexy. (Check.) Forceful and fascinating. (Check, check.) Also arrogant,
obnoxious, and way too hot for her own good. (Erase. Start over.) Now, if only
she could find out what heβs really afterβ¦

It's another high-stakes game of love, attraction, and desire, but the players
have a past and the stakes couldn't be higher. It's not just their hearts on the
line, but secrets and the family neither ever thought to have with the other.
Marcus Danvers is a man with a plan and that plan is to win, whatever it takes.
Surprise, surprise.
The last woman security business consultant Marcus Danvers expects to find at
Kline Electronics is Veronica Richards. Heβs supposed to be rooting out a
corporate spy, not rehashing an old love affairβwith the woman who sold out the
company they both used to work for and then took off without so much as a kiss
goodbye. All the clues point to Ronnie as the firmβs newest mole, which means
heβll have to spend time with the stubbornly reticentβand mouth wateringly
sexyβwoman he hasnβt been able to forget, and uncover every last thing she has
to hideβ¦
Fancy seeing you here.
Itβs just Ronnieβs luck. The one man sheβd hoped never to see again is suddenly
everywhere she looksβand taking up a starring role in her daydreams, too.
Remembering the passion she and Marcus once shared certainly isnβt going to
help, though, not when she has so many secrets, and no explanation for the way
she left him eighteen months agoβor at least not one heβll want to hear. The
problem is, when Marcus is around all her good intentions go up in smokeβ¦
