Swan Cove

NYC is exactly what scientist Blake Montgomery needs. A little decadence and a whoooole lot of anonymity, well away from the prying eyes of her charming, touristy small town of Swan Cove. Now, at the end of a whirlwind trip, she has one final thing to cross off her to-do list: a sexy fling. And the hot, green-eyed stranger at the Maine airport bar might be her perfect one-night stand. Until, of course, he shows up in her town the very next day. Wyatt Keene is just an average guy-now. But four days ago, he was a black ops intelligence agent who spent fifteen years being someone-anyone-except himself. For one hot night, Blake makes him forget he's supposed to start his life all over again . . . as himself. Talk about mission impossible. Except suddenly Wyatt and Blake are not only stuck in the same town together, but also sharing the same office, and there's no escaping their scorching hot chemistry. Wyatt's trying to convince everyone, especially Blake, that he's just a normal guy-whatever that means. But nothing spells danger like trying to start a relationship with an ex-spy who hasn't quite left his old life behind . . . Contains mature themes.

Mega-pop star Kaia has a secret identity. Nobody knows she's ,I>also ordinary Abigail Dilworth. With her latest world tour over, Abigail can finish her degree by student teaching. She'll be incognito at a coastal Maine high school. When the semester's over, then she'll worry about whether to teach or continue her meteoric singing career. Except she's off to a horrible start. There's a meet-hate with the vice-principal (with a sexy academic look that can't be ignored, but should be). And that's the best thing to happen day one . . . Everett Reynolds is content juggling his career as vice principal and teacher . . . and his secret career as an analyst for the EPA. As for a personal life? Well, he's got his friends. Anything more leads to heartbreak-he knows that from experience. He definitely doesn't need an entitled (and, yeah, stunning) pop princess pretending to know how to handle his students. Abigail and Everett don't like each other. Do they want each other? Beside the point. But circumstances lead to them needing each other. Who knew that Abigail asking him to be Kaia's fake fiancé would only be the tip of the favor iceberg? As they're thrown together more, they learn that the difference between hate and love is razor-thin. And that secrets-including how they really feel-always come out . . .
