When it comes to love, there’s always something cooking. If Lexi Bellamy had to describe Winsome Cove, she would say the little Cape Cod town is tired and stuck in its ways. Like its men—or at least Sam Knight, the handsome New Englander who irritates the "Midwest nice" right out of the former five-star chef. Looking for a reset after her ex-fiancé all but ruined her career and reputation, Lexi agrees to spend the summer rebranding Sam’s family’s run-down restaurant. Yet Lexi faces resistance from Sam with every change. And the best way to keep from bickering…is kissing. Even so, Sam doesn’t trust her big-city ways. Can Lexi convince Sam that—like a good surf and turf—they’re made for each other? From Harlequin Special Edition: Believe in love. Overcome obstacles. Find happiness.

Harlequin® Special Edition brings you four new titles for one great price, available now! These are heartwarming, romantic stories about life, love and family. This Special Edition box set includes: The Rancher Hits the Road (a Dawson Family Ranch novel) By Melissa Senate Nothing like a little road trip with a jilted bride. Ranch foreman Shane Dawson certainly hadn’t expected he’d be escorting the bride away from her wedding, but Ashley McCray was determined to track down her good-for-nothing runaway groom. Since widower Shane’s twin daughters were scheduled to visit family anyway, Shane offered Ashley a ride to seek her revenge. All he asked was that Ashley help turn his tomboy twins into temporary angels who could change the minds of his late wife’s parents about seeking custody. Seven hours on the road should have been enjoyable and uneventful. Except this romance-weary couple had more in common than they’d ever imagined… Her Second-Chance Family (a Seasons in Sudbury novel) By Elizabeth Bevarly Fate ended their romance the first time around. Has the time come to make amends? Tragedy—and an abusive, manipulative mother—destroyed Alice Whitlock’s high school romance with Finn Huxley. Reuniting with the handsome contractor years later to restore and sell her late mother’s home resurrects their strong bond. But when Finn discovers he has a young daughter from a previous marriage who is now orphaned without him, Alice is forced to relive the pain she felt when she lost their baby all those years ago…and lost Finn in the process. Will the heartbreak of her past—and her shock over Finn’s previous marriage—destroy their second chance for the family she always dreamed of?
