WHERE IT BEGAN
by Kathleen Pickering
Contemporary Romance from Harlequin Superromance
Artist Maria Santiago asks Daniel Del Rio, the man she knows as the captain of
her father’s ship, to take her back to the Bahamas in the hopes that returning
to the site of the terrible boating accident that killed her mother and her twin
sister and resulted in her amnesia will help to cure her. Not understanding why
she’s attracted to Daniel and angry at him at the same time, Maria doesn’t know
that she and Daniel were lovers — and Daniel was captaining the ship when the
accident occurred. Although he wasn’t responsible, he blames himself for her
family members’ deaths.
~A novel storyline, excellent description, and lots of sexual tension make this
an irresistible story readers won’t want to put down. Pickering’s depiction of
Daniel and Maria’s interactions are quite realistic and detailed.

GHOST WALK
by Heather Graham
Paranormal Romance
Reprint – Available everywhere!
Yes, she believed in ghosts, or if not ghosts, per se, a memory that lingered
in certain places. It sure as hell wasn't something she was going to share with
anyone.
Nikki DuMonde's newest employee is standing at the end of her bed at four
o'clock in the morning begging for help. It's a joke, right? Besides, as manager
of a successful New Orleans
haunted-tour company, Nikki doesn't scare easily. But in the light of day, harsh
reality sets in as a police officer informs her that Andy was brutally
murdered—at the exact time Nikki swears the distraught woman was in her room.
No one believes her except for Brent Blackhawk, a paranormal investigator
desperately trying to forget his tragic past. Half Irish, half Lakota—and able
to communicate with the dead—Brent is used to living in two worlds. But when he
realizes the ghost of a slain government agent is also trying to reach out to
Nikki, he knows that she, too, must listen to the dead…if she wants to keep
living.

VACATION FROM LOVE
by Joan Conning Afman
Light Romantic Comedy
Available from Kindle Direct
Duff, with an advanced degree in art history, takes a routine office job--just
until his dream job of college teaching becomes a reality. Everyone, including
him, expects that he will marry old flame, Tanya, but one look at blue-collar
Raina Hudson changes his life forever. Duff is mad for Raina--almost obsessed,
but in a non-threatening way. He just wants to love her and protect her at all
times--even when she and her best friend, Marisol, decide to take a
free-wheeling road trip. But how is he to get the same time off from their small
office, when he has only been there six months and not due any vacation time?
And he knows office Dictator Dianne will never let him go!
Aha! He's got it. He'll tell them all his grandmother in
Maine died suddenly, and he needs to be there
with his devastated family and to help with funeral arrangements. The fact that
he has never set foot in Maine doesn't bother him at all. He's good at making things up.
Duff decides to follow the girls as they drive north, stopping wherever the
spirit moves them. If he can just stay close enough to protect them in an
emergency---well, that's not stalking, is it? But just as he decides Raina is a
grown woman and deserves to take her own chances, Fate intervenes again--his
real grandmother does die, and he's off to Stockbridge, MA. to console his
mother, and face his issues with Tanya.
One misadventure after another awaits all three road-trippers as they
get as far as Washington,
DC. Although this vacation from love is just what Raina
wanted, it gives both Duff and Raina time to rethink their relationship. With a
little help from Marisol, Raina comes to terms with who she is, and who she
might become, and whether a future with Duff is---well, in her future at all.
Does she really want a vacation from love?
