Four classic stories from 'The Calhoun Women' collection.
'Courting Catherine': All hard-driving executive Trenton St James III had on his mind was making the final arrangements to buy a run-down old mansion. He wasn't expecting anything like Catherine CC Calhoun. This feisty, independent-minded young woman bristled at the very thought of losing her family's most highly prized possession. And she seemed to bristle at the very sight of Trenton St James too. But Trenton wanted not only her home, he wanted her, too. And he wasn't a man who took no for an answer.
'A Man For Amanda': Amanda Calhoun had always been the sensible one, forever struggling to keep her eccentric family out of trouble. And now arrogant, insufferable, Harvard-educated cowboy Sloan O'Riley thought he was going to turn her family's beloved and slights decrepit home into a hotel. Well, she'd see about that! Sloan seemed a little too interested in Calhoun family history and their famous missing emeralds. He also seemed a little too interested in Amanda . . .
'For The Love Of Lilah': Mystery and danger still swirled around Lilah Calhoun's ancestral home. The fabled lost emeralds continued to attract treasure hunters as well as a man unlike any Lilah had ever known. Maxwell Quartermain was a reserved college professor, more at home in the past than in the present. But from the moment Lilah dragged him from the Atlantic, she found he could make her melt with the merest glance, and that troubled her deeply.
'Suzanna's Surrender': Suzanna Calhoun and her sisters simply had to find the priceless emeralds hidden somewhere in their ancestral home. The jewels were the key to the deadly mystery that had threatened them for so long. Holt Bradford had loved Suzanna for more years than he cared to remember. He'd never once told her what was in his heart, but now he had no choice. He had to protect her from the shadows swirling around her, and he had to make her his at last.
