Now all she had to do was convince him she was right. . . . WAITING FOR NICK Frederica Kimball had been waiting all her life--waiting to grow up, and waiting for the day when Nicholas LeBeck would fall as desperately in love with her as she'd always been with him.

The only thing more perfect than the beautiful--dilapidated--building she'd bought for her new dance school was Brody O'Connell, the frustrating and surprisingly fascinating contractor she'd hired for the renovation.

But then brash Spence Kimball and his adorable little girl joined forces to nudge their way into her shop. . . and her closely guarded heart. Sensing that a hidden wound was behind Natasha's steely defenses, Spence aimed to draw out the gentler side he knew was beneath the surface. Slowly her pain gave way to passion. But when he vowed to love her always, she pulled away once more. What would it take to tame her fears once and for all? LURING A LADY Nothing in Sydney Hayward's background of wealth and privilege had prepared her to take the helm of her family's corporation. Her overflowing new responsibilities left no room for complications--and Mikhail Stanislaski was definitely a complication. Sydney had learned the hard way that she could never love anyone--least of all, this masculine stranger who came from a world so different from her own. Still, the way she felt when he put his hands on her made her doubt her resolve to remain alone. This gifted man seemed to have a rare talent for luring even a reluctant lady into his arms. . . . FALLING FOR RACHEL Landlocked in Manhattan, rugged seaman Zack Muldoon needed a tough, no-nonsense lawyer to save his kid brother's delinquent hide. Public defender Rachel Stanislaski was not what he had in mind--until he discovered there was a lot more to the beautiful, coolheaded attorney than met the eye. . . and found himself falling for her, hook, line and sinker.Once Upon a Kiss
