BREATHE DEEP . . . AND JUMP IN
At the ends of the earth, Patagonia is a land where ambition trumps reason and the savage summit of La Aguja lures the most determined climbers. It's also the last spot a "play-it-safe girl" like Auden Woods expects to find herself. But she'll lace up her brand-new hiking boots and do whatever it takes to secure a dream job at an adventure magazine . . . even if it kills her. And it just might. When disaster strikes, her only chance at survival comes in the form of the surliest, sexiest mountaineer ever to come out of Scotland.
After a climbing accident cost him his brother, professional mountaineer Rhys MacAskill is at the end of his rope. Redemption is not in his future. That is, until a terrifying storm blows a budding journalist into his tent and it's up to him to make sure they both survive until morning. Despite the demons weighing on him, Rhys can't resist the temptation of the charming American and one wild night just isn't enough.
Auden and Rhys soon learn there are no shortcuts as they navigate their way between life, death, and atonement, and discover something they never expected—love.

From the author of You Had Me at Halo, comes the first in a new contemporary romance series where a woman must decide between her own fears and true love.
MAYBE, BABY...
Kate Mitchell is finished with love. After a recent relationship disaster, she's had it. Sure, she's noticed her smoking hot new neighbor, Matt Hunter, moving into the converted warehouse next door. But she resolves to keep her fantasies just that.
But fantasy becomes reality when he shows up in her gallery. Matt is a logical, meticulous type while Kate's more of a fly-by-night free spirit. And she won't allow herself to be led into another relationship—especially not with someone who wants to start a family. She can't do that.
Still, even Kate can't deny Matt’s charm, and soon realizes she's falling for him hard. If she tells him she won't have a baby, she'll break his heart. But if she doesn't, she might break her own...
