In MINE TIL MIDNIGHT, Amelia Hathaway is the oldest of four sisters and has only one brother to drive her mad. They live a genteel but impoverished life until they come into an unexpected inheritance. Suddenly they have a title, a small fortune, and a ramshackle estate in Hampshire. But they're completely unprepared for an upper-class life. Amelia does her best to rein in her colorful and unmanageable siblings to match society's expectations. Until the mysterious, extremely wealthy half-Gypsy Cam Rohan appears. Cam wants to leave his civilized existence and return to his roots. The irresistible attraction between Amelia and the exotically handsome Cam poses a huge problem for both of them--their goals and lifestyles are incompatible. However, as Amelia deals with a multitude of problems, including trying to save her alcoholic brother Leo from ruin, she finds herself turning to Cam Rohan, whose friendship turns into a passion that neither of them can deny...

Set in the beautiful mountains of the Pacific Northwest, this is tale of the power of love and the promise of second chances.

It's a hot August Saturday on Nantucket Island. Over the course of the next 24 hours, two lives will be transformed forever. Marguerite Beale, former chef of culinary hot spot Les Parapluies, has been out of the public eye for over a decade. This all changes with a phone call from Marguerite's goddaughter, Renata Knox. Marguerite has not seen Renata since the death of Renata's mother, Candace Harris Knox, fourteen years earlier. And now that Renata is on Nantucket visiting the family of her new fiance, she takes the opportunity, against her father's wishes, to contact Marguerite in hopes of learning the story of her mother's life--and death.

"When Emma Love's mother retires, it is time for her to take the reins of the family dating agency and build on its success. And she has a fresh new idea: to host a Jane Austen-style Regency Season of glamourous events where potential lovers can actually take the time to get to know each other in person, with no apps in between. As the round of glamourous social events begins, we meet some of Emma's new clients, and see her matchmaking skills in action. Annie, who has a romantic soul but believes she lost her chance at love a long time ago; recently divorced Jane, who is not quite ready to see what her new love life might look like, and wild child Lydia, who is more interested in hooking up than finding her Mr Darcy. All is going swimmingly but as the Season unfolds, there is a fly in Emma's ointment - the irritating Mr Knight, with his casual attitude and gentle cynicism. Why is she allowing him to ruffle her calm, ordered life and why can't she stop thinking about him? She has no intention of becoming romantically involved herself, of course; she is far too sensible to take a chance on love - isn't she?"--Publisher.
