"I love you as a friend, Nat. I love you as a sister. I love you as a neighbor, a school mate, and a dozen other things. I simply want to know if I love you as a girl, and maybe if you can love me in return." ----- Nadia Asbury knew everything there was to know about Paterson Radovich, his likes and dislikes, what viruses and injuries he'd had, and every Christmas present he'd received since they were ten. He was, after all, her best friend. Yet asked out on a date, she wonders if she knows him at all. "Trust me," he says. And, yes, well, she does, and him more than any other person she...

And why couldn't someone tell her how to take hold of the peace and happiness she'd searched forever to find? Maybe Chris could. Maybe that was why she had such a need to be near him. ----- The day Christopher Piel walked into their mixed household to fix the cable, Tansy Marsh's life changed. Here is a man unlike any she's...

Once again, his brother was right, and here, they were, him and her, running in circles, him running away and her chasing after him. He ought to set the story straight, tell her he didn't feel the same. But to say so now would be too hard on her. He'd give it time. Things would change, and she'd figure it out. ----- Sick of being compared with his semi-famous older brother, Harper Kane's growing anger fuels a world of self-doubt.

Young lovers. Staring up at him, she knew he meant that and couldn't stop herself from reacting. One hand curved on his cheek, she drew upward and met his mouth, his tender caress reaching inward and folding around her heart. ----- Zoia Fisht hid herself away in an ultra-modern townhome devoid of anything personal except for her many pets.
