The Road Back
2025
Caryn Howard should have known better than to believe in fairy-tale endings. In real life, rich men like Thomas Falcon don’t end up with ordinary women like her. When Tom implicated her younger brother, Dirk, in an arson investigation, Caryn realized the millionaire was filled with prejudice against her working-class roots, and her pride forced her to call off their engagement. Newly employed as a personal assistant for society matriarch Angelina Malone, Caryn is trying to put the past behind her, and now that Tom has finally stopped calling and writing, she might be able to do just that. So imagine her surprise when her employer’s new chauffeur turns out to be none other than Thomas Falcon! Tom claims he can be a regular working man for one week. After all, he got his start as a limo driver—even if it was while learning the ropes of his family’s tour company. But will his gesture be enough to convince Caryn that he’s changed—and to win her back?

For the Love of Family
2009
Secrets. Between shocking family revelations and a shared passionate moment she's hoping her new boss won't recall, Belle Carson can't get away from secrets. Yet she can't bring herself to tell Matt Malone that she's the Cleopatra he almost went home with years ago after a costume party. She needs this job too much. But Belle's certainly never forgotten him. Dreamed about Matt, actually, which means it's all the more disappointing that she seems to have made zero impact on him. And that's a shame, because she loves Matt, loves his big, boisterous family—the exact opposite of hers. What's a girl to do? Stay quiet and maintain the status quo? Or take a leap, tell him the truth…and risk losing him again?

Get married. Not the answer in Kitty's eyes. Their compromise? Moving in together. Turns out that arrangement isn't exactly working, either.
