from fictiondb: Having no tomorrows to give, he said, "Promise me today." Detective Tom Hennessey cared. He cared enough to confront teacher Merritt Reed about his nephew's grades. He cared enough to notice the little things about Merritt that signaled a half-buried sorrow. Tom cared enough to try and heal Merritt's wounds--even if the process was painful for them both. Tom Hennessey cared enough to risk his life daily for the citizens of Cincinnati. And that was just the problem, for Merritt had learned that you could trust a cop with your life--but not with your heart!

from fictiondb: He wanted one sweet taste... Brett Forrest had stepped right into the pages of Gone With The Wind. When a feisty Southern belle caught his eye, he felt every bit as wicked as scoundrel Rhett Butler. Beguiling and insufferable, Miss Charlotte had a plantation to save, and the latter-day Scarlett O'Hara would bat her eyes and swoon until Camillia Lane was rescued. But unlike Rhett, Brett couldn't allow her to succeed -- for reasons that had to be kept secret. Under the guise of newly hired caretaker Brett had an uncomfortable yet pleasurable task to accomplish: ensure Charlotte's defeat by making her is unsuspecting lover!
