SAVING SHELBYAfter Shelby Reid's marriage collapses, leaving her a single mom, living in a basement suite and trapped in a dead-end job, she is determined to make a better life for herself and her kids. Step 1: Swear off men. Step 2: Chase her dream of becoming a wilderness guide. Her plan works until on a drunken night out with her friend, she accidentally signs up for a Survival Spa Course and finds herself stuck in the woods with ridiculously hot survival instructor Ian McLean.
The attraction is instant and mutual. At least Shelby thinks it is. Ian seems a little distracted. He isn't the only one. With her libido ignoring her no men policy, Shelby struggles to learn the survival techniques and resist her burgeoning attraction to him. When Ian's recklessness collides with Shelby's reluctance to depend on a man, it puts their hearts and her life in danger. Can Shelby find the strength to trust Ian before it's too late? GINNY'S CRUSHGinny White isn't interested in marriage and kids.
Which makes it perfect that her boyfriend is more interested in surfing than getting serious. That is until she ends up the third wheel on a bachelor party weekend (the final straw on her current relationship) and Justen Barrett walks out of the mist like a fairy-tale prince. Justen was her high school crush, and everything about pursuing him is a bad idea. When Ginny accidentally becomes his little sister's maid of honour, she can't avoid him.
A situation seriously detrimental to keeping her fantasies in check. Even as their connection grows, the reasons they shouldn't be together stack up. It's bad enough that Justen was Ginny's brother's best friend. But after coming in second place with her last boyfriend, Ginny knows that for any relationship to work she needs to be number one. With two daughters, an ex-wife, a little sister, and a dying father vying for his attention, Ginny keeps finding herself at the end of Justen's list.
Is there any chance this high school crush could come true? RESCUING CLAIREClaire Evans is happy being single and independent, proving to the world that she doesn't need any help-especially not from a man. But when a desperate attempt to gain recognition at her highly competitive job ends with her stuck at the bottom of a ravine, she does the only thing she can: she calls 911. And in swoops sizzlingly sexy, search and rescue expert Spencer White, the last man Claire needs rescuing her.
Not only is he cocky, but he believes it's his job as a man to protect women. Basically, he's everything she hates. Now that Spencer has saved her once, Claire is determined to prove she's just as capable as he is. When he challenges her to a "friendly" orienteering competition, she instantly accepts, only to find that needing Spencer's help seems to be her only skill. Can Claire and Spencer find middle ground? Or will their differences tear them apart before their hearts can bring them together?
