Professor Carolyn Trent, returning from a prestigious conference abroad, is made academic advisor to ten basketball team members - much to her chagrin. C.J. Draper, the college's irreverent new basketball coach, deplores her rigid outward perfection - but discovers a sensuous woman within. When her logic clashes with his ambition, can they both win?

❤ Win a throne, but lose him forever? ❤ Katie Davis is a perfectly ordinary young woman living a perfectly ordinary life in small-town Wisconsin … isn’t she? The most interesting thing about her is that she works for the men’s basketball office at Ashton University. If she considers the biggest perk of the job being around assistant basketball coach Brad Spencer, that also makes her ordinary, because what woman wouldn’t feel that way? So these people coming around saying she could be the long-missing granddaughter of the King of Bariavak have to be wrong … don’t they? Brad has a real soft spot for Katie. She stirs his protectiveness, his penchant for the underdog, and, possibly, certain other reactions he’s not about to indulge. So he’s going to do his damnedest to make sure Katie gets all that she deserves, including the crown that might be hers by right … even though it means Her Royal Highness will never again look at a basketball coach from Wisconsin like he’s the king of her heart.

To Wyoming ranch foreman Tucker Gates, the only good owner for the Double Bar X was an absentee one. That's how it had been for ten years. And then came divorcee Jenny Peters. Bringing her two whining, spoiled kids and her city-bred fairy-tale views of life - and love - in the West. Jenny wasn't going to let Tucker scare her away from the new life she wanted to build for herself and her kids. No matter that he could be as hard as the mountains around them. No matter that she found totally unexpected comfort from his rough strength. But what next? Because Tucker Gates was a lot of things, but he was absolutely clear that he was not a family man.

Freebie with newsletter sign-up (as of 6-2019) The Soldier's Kiss is a prequel novella to The Forgotten Prince, Book 7 of The Wedding Series of contemporary romance novels. In their close-knit Columbia, S.C., community, widower and Army Col. Brooks Reed and his neighbor, outspoken artist Ann-Elise Jerakenko, are single and have no children at home, and therefore are an anomaly. They're also dedicated to their work and, at first glance, not particularly suited for a relationship, let alone one with each other. With the help of family-oriented friends and a stray cat, though, they just might open the doors that close them in. For more about Brooks' daughter, Harmon, and the continuing adventures of the reluctant royalty of the little-known kingdom of Bariavak, look for The Forgotten Prince, released in fall 2016. A Soldier's Kiss also updates readers of the A Place Called Home series on the married life of John Griffin, one of the descendants pledged to take care of his family's Far Hills Ranch in Wyoming. Read the romance that introduced Colonel John Griffin Jr. and Ellyn Sinclair in Book 2 of the series, At the Heart's Command.
