Book Description

A very special wedding gown leads two women to find the love they always wished for The dress was made many years ago, and it came with a promise: the first man you meet is the man you'll marry. Shelly Hansen is horrified when her great-aunt's wedding dress arrives. Because according to family legend, she's destined to marry the next man she meets. So when she trips on an escalator and falls into Mark Brady's arms, she tells him--and herself--that she isn't interested in marriage. But then she starts seeing him everywhere. Is it coincidence...or destiny? After her own wedding, Shelly sends her best friend, Jill Morrison, the dress--which is delivered to Jill's hotel in Hawaii. But at least the man Jill sat beside on the plane--gorgeous grouch Jordan Wilcox--can't be the man in question, can he? She met him before she got the dress. But the gown always ends up in a wedding! "Her novels are always engaging stories that accurately capture the foibles of real-life men and women with warmth and humor." --Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

From Reviewers’ Choice Book of the Year nominee and bestselling author Laura Florand: Ruthless. That was what they said about Damien Rosier. Handsome. Wealthy. Powerful. Merciless. No one messed with his family, because to do so they would have to get through him. No one thought he had a heart. Not even the woman he gave his to. Cynical. That was what they said about Jasmin Bianchi. A top perfumer of her generation, Jess had achieved commercial success by growing a protective shell over a tender heart. The one time she cracked it open to let Damien in, he crushed it—after a night of unbelievable passion. Lovers. That one magical night couldn’t survive the harsh light of dawn. When Jess woke up to discover the man in bed beside her had stolen her company, she fled. Enemies. Now she’s come to the south of France with something of his. If he wants to reclaim both his family heritage and the woman who walked away from him, he’s going to have to fight as dirty as only Damien can. But Jess knows how to fight dirty, too. And these days, she has nothing left to lose. Certainly not her heart. Come explore the south of France, a world of heat and fragrance and tales as old as time, through the stories of the five powerful Rosier cousins and the women who win their hearts.

Book Description

A Wish Upon a Negai is about a girl named Khloe and her connection with a mythical creature called a Negai. Khloe had grown up listening to tales, told by her grandma, about Negais, magical creatures that will grant wishes to those who are pure of heart. Negais are majestical big cats with creamy fur that is cooler than ice, and only those who are pure of heart see their big cat form. Khloe finds joy in her conversations with her grandma because it comforts her in times of mourning as her mum is terminally sick and her brother and father are at war. Fast forward to a stark, doleful day, Khloe is 15 years old and at her grandmother's funeral. On her way back from it, she collapses from exhaustion and awakens at a stranger's house. After talking to the stranger, whose name is Noah, she realizes that he is going to Antarctica - where the Negais reside - soon. In desperation, Khloe begs Noah to let her come with him. Dubiously, Noah agrees. Khloe is delighted, but one question remains: Will Khloe find happiness during her dreadful times through wishes granted by the Negai? Or will she be shunned away if she isn't pure of heart?

Book Description

Quigley Johnson has, reluctantly, given up the rest of her last year of high school to take part in her best friend Ann's Betterment Plan, which will turn them into the best-dressed, most sought-after, most admired girls at their senior formal. Because - hey - who doesn't want the perfect prom, complete with a dream dress and a devastatingly handsome date? But the prom costs money - lots of money - and even though the girls could easily have Ann's mom design their dresses (she's only Victoria Parisi, one of the most famous designers in the world), Ann insists that they pay their own way. And that's how Quigley gets stuck making artistic topping masterpieces on frozen pizzas canvases, before becoming a live model for Ms. Parisi's fashion design class, where she meets Zander. He's cute, and cool, and funny, with a killer design sensibility (even if he can't sketch). But is he too good to be true? And what about David, the hot, talented artist at school, who's also kind of a jerk, but won't leave Quigley alone? And Ann - she started the Betterment Plan to improve Quigley and herself, but it seems like it's ripping their friendship to shreds. This road to the prom dream may just end in disaster.
