Just that morning Sam's life had gone from not so good to absolutely dismal. She'd been fired from her tailoring job at Antonio's For Men, and before the evening was over, the cops would probably be hot on her trail for "borrowing" the tux she was about to tailor for the gorgeous millionaire. On top of that, Johnnie "The Shark" Russo had been threatening to make her fish bait if she didn't pay back the money she'd borrowed. Suddenly Jack's offer sounded like something she couldn't refuse.

Besides, it was only for one night...

 

Born to Be Wild

Coming Soon!

The last thing millionaire rancher Jack Remington wanted was a wife. Hell, he'd just been dumped by his fiancée and was feeling rather relieved to no longer have a noose around his neck. But Jack had one huge problem--he'd flown to ritzy Palm Beach to attend his baby sister's highfalutin' engagement ball and he'd promised her he'd be bringing his wife-to-be. There was no way Jack would let her down on the biggest night of her life.

When a beguiling, flame-haired enchantress breezes into his hotel room with a tux and a seductive smile, Jack's sure all his troubles have come to an end. All he has to do is hire the beautiful tailor to masquerade as his fiancée.

Samantha Jones is sure the sexy cowboy is out of his ever-lovin' mind. She's never been to a ball, never worn a fancy gown, and has no idea how to act like a socialite. She can't possibly pose as his wife-to-be, but...

Coming Soon!

Charity Wilde didn't come all the way to Wyoming just to be saddled with some cowboy! The leggy showgirl only wants a quiet vacation with family before she heads back to Vegas. So why do Mike Flynn's emerald eyes make her knees go weak? Fame is just around the corner--and Charity wants to be a star...not a rancher's wife!

Upright Mike has his own reasons for not wanting to get involved with this Wilde woman. But reason takes a back seat to passion--and the sparks flying between them are about to start one hell of a blaze! Their life goals are too different for this to work--unless a showbiz beauty and a sinfully gorgeous cowboy can somehow find another dream that includes them both. Something like...love perhaps.

 

Stuck On You
(Reming
ton and Wilde Family Escapade #4
)

It's common knowledge in Plentiful, Wyoming, that bookstore owner Scarlett O'Malley imagines trouble brewing everywhere. Of course, real trouble bubbles over the day an enigmatic stranger named Logan Wolfe shows up in town. The outsider's one hunk of a guy, with a smile that could knock a redhead off her sky-high heels. But when a mysterious woman literally drops dead at Scarlett's feet and the town's wealthiest widow disappears, suspicion falls on the secretive man. Scarlett is positive Logan's up to something--but is he out to scam the people in town, or steal her heart?

The last thing Logan wants is a screwball sleuth dogging his footsteps and digging into his past. The ex-cop came to Plentiful to escape the madness of Las Vegas and to ditch bad memories, not to have some zany redhead with a man-killer body mess with his peace of mind or history that's better off buried. But Logan can't help admiring Scarlett's spirit--or the gold stars dangling from her belly button ring. And when her wacky investigation takes a surprising turn, Logan finds himself glued to Scarlett's side, helping her look for clues, keeping her out of trouble--and maybe falling in love...

BLOND BOMBSHELL GOES BANANAS

She's the blonde bombshell who once starred in a string of low-budget slasher flicks and is now a jet-setting, bestselling author. But one too many bites of caviar, menacing phone calls from her jailbird ex, a tabloid photographer hot on her heels, and nasty gossip about her life send Juliet Bridger over the edge. Disguising her identity, Juliet runs…straight into the arms of Cole Sheridan, a small town vet with troubles of his own.

With a malpractice suit hanging over his head and his bohemian parents and their band of old hippie friends about to converge on his home, the last thing Cole needs is one more snag in his orderly life. But when he spots the raven-haired beauty with the curvaceous body stranded along a lonely stretch of highway, he hitches her car to his and tows one more complication his way.

He thinks she's quirky; she thinks he's sexy but cantankerous. She's hiding something; he wants to push everyone away--until the chaos of Juliet's life catches up with her in Plentiful, Wyoming. Once more she's ready to run…and then Cole kisses her!

That's when the trouble really begins!

 

 

I’m No Angel

Top 7 Reasons Why She's No Angel

7. Easily Palm Beach's sexiest private investigator, Angel Devlin always gets her man--and bad boy millionaire Tom Donovan is at the top of her Most Wanted list.

6. Instinct tells her that drop-dead-gorgeous Tom has something wicked up his sleeve, and she's going to get up close and personal to find out just what.

5. Her list of nocturnal activities includes lifting a wallet while seductively skimming her hands over her victim's rock-solid chest and performing a bewitching lap dance at a seedy underground club.

4. There's nothing sweet or innocent about Angel--she's as sharp as the steel stiletto she wears strapped to her shapely thigh.

3. Her motor is "dress to thrill." A tight skirt, a hint of cleavage, and a pair of kick-ass Jimmy Choos will make a man open up and divulge all sorts of little secrets.

2. Angel is devilish, devious, and sexy as sin.

1. She's the first to admit she's no angel, but it doesn't stop Tom from falling head over heels in love with the mischievous blonde.

About the Author
 

 

USA Today
bestselling author Patti Berg began penning stories while in elementary school, when she wrote the script for a puppet show that she and her friends put on in the children's ward at a local hospital. Thirty years later, one of her dreams came true when the first of her many warm and lighthearted novels appeared in bookstores.

Scared of dogs until the age of fifty, Patti now goes out of her way to pet every dog she gets close to and would happily bring home all the puppies in the pound if her less impulsive husband would only let her. He’s had less success keeping her from saying yes when family, friends and others ask her to volunteer. Give her a cause, and she’s there to help.

Patti lives in southwestern Idaho with her husband of thirty-five years and a huggable Bernese mountain dog named Barkley. To learn more about Patti or to contact her, visit her website at
