Island Escapes

Olivia Stratten wasn't thinking about romance when she accepted a job as marketing director for a resort island on Australia's Great Barrier Reef. She just wanted to get far, far away from New York and her ruined career. She's running away from a mess not of her own making... Her ex-boyfriend's crimes destroyed her reputation. Nobody in New York will hire Olivia Stratten, once the PR darling of the Big Apple. Offered a job on a resort island on Australia's Great Barrier Reef, she jumps at the opportunity to escape. To start again. Trust doesn't come easily when you've been burned, but when Olivia meets Cory, she can't help but be tempted. The resort's easy-going activities director is not only one of the most physically attractive men she's ever met, he also seems like one of the nicest. Can Cory possibly be for real? There's only one way to find out... and Olivia's way is diving in head-first!

Sunfish Island Resort seems like the perfect place for Jace Hunter to recover from a serious illness... as long as nobody figures out his family owns the island. Meeting Nessa, a psychiatrist turned bartender, Jace comes to realize that maybe the society life he's been living isn't where his future happiness lies. Tempted to pour him some iced water, she asked instead, "Virgin?" Jace blinked in surprise. "It's been a while, but no, I'm not." The bartender threw her head back and laughed. She was pretty, Jace had noticed that right off: her skin a rich dark bronze with black hair falling to her waist in a mass of tiny braids. When she laughed, she was really beautiful, dimples appearing in her cheeks, light amber-brown eyes flashing with mirth. "I was asking if you want a hard or a soft drink. Alcoholic, or not," she said through girlish giggles.

It started as a prank... With Lucy's impossible mother coming to visit, when a friend suggested she prank her mom with a fake fiancé, the idea was too good to pass up. She never expected Bryce, the resort's gorgeous dive instructor, to volunteer! Bryce has been in love with Lucy since the day the stunning marine biologist arrived on Sunfish Island. Maybe, if she has to pretend to be in love with him, she'll give him that second glance he's been hoping for. Will everything turn out all right for the pair? Or will it all turn into a comedy of errors as the staff of the resort throw themselves into fake wedding shenanigans?

When she has to fire her pastry chef for incompetence, the last person Suzannah Monteil wanted as a replacement was YouTube celebrity chef Carlo Gianetti. Too handsome for his own good, Carlo is a distraction she doesn't need. Carlo never got over the beautiful young chef who ran out on him and broke his heart nine years ago. Now he's back in Suzannah's life. With a saboteur out to ruin both their reputations, will the attraction simmering between the two develop into a sublime dish...or a charred disaster?
