Excerpt
Nolan Wood checked his watch as he glanced around the house.
Shelby’s house. Or it had started out that way anyway. Now it was his,
too. Just as much as she was his.
With a shake of his head, he realized he was smiling. Not
that he wasn’t usually—on the whole, he was a pretty laid-back, happy kinda
guy. But since he met Shel, it took a rock solid effort to wipe the smile off
his face. His Shelby. His paradox. The buttoned-up woman who’d let a loose
cannon like him into her life—and in the process had changed him completely.
They’d been together for months now, but he’d known right
away that she was special. And that feeling just kept getting stronger, until
sometimes when he was around her he thought he might burst if he couldn’t
release the pressure.
Then again, that’s one reason why he loved his radio show; that
was one hell of a pressure release, after all.
Although it wasn’t quite as good as sex…
The thought seemed to shove him around, and he turned to
face the suitcase he’d left by the door. For a second, he frowned. Afraid that
maybe he was doing this all wrong.
But it was too late now. He’d already made his decision, his
plans, and he was diving in.
He pulled the old-fashioned tape recorder out of his
backpack. He’d thought it had a fun vintage flair when he’d found it in the
station’s dusty storeroom along with a pack of unused cassettes. He’d snagged
the device and the tapes, then recorded the message. Now, he put the cued-up
cassette into the recorder, checked that the batteries were good, and added a
Post-it note to the top. He left the whole thing on her coffee table. All
things considered, much better than a printed note.
Then he drew in a nervous breath, grabbed his suitcase, and
gave the inside of the house one last, long look.
This was it, he thought as he headed for the door. For
better or for worse, everything was about to change.

I was provided with several recipes from the book. Unfortunately, anything with mushrooms was an automatic "no," and anything with soft cooked eggs as immediately disqualified! That left me with White Chocolate Cranberry Cookies.
This recipe was so easy! It makes a nice quantity of cookies (about 4 dozen). The cookies are rich and buttery, with just enough sweet from the chocolate, and tangy from the dried cranberries. I enjoyed them with a cup of tea.
White Chocolate Cranberry Cookies
1 stick butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
1 cup dried cranberries
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, using a hand mixer, cream together butter and sugar until smooth, then add egg and vanilla. Slowly add flour, baking soda and baking powder until blended. Stir in the white chocolate chips and cranberries. Place 1 tablespoon at a time on a greased cookie sheet. Bake for 12-14 minutes.
After mixing all the ingredients in the order specified, you're ready to form them into cookies and prepare for baking...
Let the baking begin...
Enjoy!

*Shana*
Trevor Willis is sexy, sweet, and oh so fun. He’s also my best friend’s brother-in-law. That should mean he’s off-limits, or that I should be off-limits to him.
Someone probably should have told us that before my best friend married his brother, before the morning of the wedding when we woke in each other’s arms with gaping holes in my memory.
They didn’t.
We did.
The hilarious truth behind our crazy, secret adventure secured this handsome, off-limits man in my heart. But alas, life goes on. After our one secret night, we went back to our lives—our hardworking, solitary lives.
And then it happened.
My phone began to buzz. Each night with thousands of miles between us, we laughed, talked, and shared. And then, the phone stopped ringing.
Before it did, I knew one thing...
Our secret one had bloomed and blossomed, and now that our circumstances have changed I want another one!
*Trevor*
Shana Price is that one woman. You know, the one who suddenly makes the world more than a place to work, but also a place to live. Usually shy and awkward, in her presence I want to be more—I am more. I don’t even have to try.
She’s my one. I knew it the moment I first met her. What followed simply confirmed it.
The problem is the little hassle of the thousands of miles between us.
I tried to make it work, but each phone call made it harder. (Yes, that is a pun) I couldn’t take it any more—and she became the one who got away.
Now, everything has changed.
Shana is back in the United States—all I have to do is make her see that her job isn’t the only reason to stay.
That shouldn’t be a problem, right?
From a secret one to another one!
Try Aleatha’s lighter side for a guaranteed smile—the perfect getaway.
