[taken from fictiondb] Arriving at her lighthouse retreat on sleepy Block Island, Kate Lonergan is floored to find herself facing a gloriously virile, nearly nude roommate. Matt Kincade, high-powered contractor, defies all her attempts to evict him. Resenting Matt's potent drive, Kate battles their instant attraction. But Matt rallies her relatives, invades her quilting classes, and spirits her off to his starlit tower room. He ambushes her--heart, body, and soul--and boggles her mind with sensual pleasures. His zany tactics, his expert loving, leave Kate no time to think--only to feel. And she knows that feelings so intense ... men so overwhelming ... are not to be trusted.
[from fictiondb:] Young, high-spirited Lady Madeline Matthews is expected to wed an aging, lecherous lord.

He is a legend in the footlights and in the bedchamber. But when the curtain falls, Logan is an intensely private, guarded man still tormented by past betrayals that cut deep into his pride and his heart.

And what begins with an onstage kiss threatens to blossom into something more rapturous and real. But first Logan and Madeline both must be brave enough to drop the masks they hide behind. . . and reveal their true selves in the golden glorious light of love.

Could Cole--a journalist doing "undercover" research on house-husbanding --help her find both her boys and all the answers?
