Kidnapped!
Or that’s what it feels like to Kizzy Dean when a business disagreement
with arrogant Greek lawyer Andreas Lazarides leaves her no choice but to
accompany him to the Greek Isle of Rhodes. It doesn’t help matters that
this sexy brooding stranger, who is unaccustomed to the word No and the
very idea of commitment, shows her what it feels like to be truly desired.
Amidst the ancient myths and alleyways, tensions run high as Kizzy feels
an immediate attraction for the man she wants to both ravage and strangle.
Accustomed to gold-digging women, Andreas is mesmerized by Kizzy’s feisty
nature and Gypsy beauty. Guilt and sorrow have been his only bedfellows
since his sister’s death, but Kizzy stirs up a desire he’s unwilling to
succumb to . . . until she makes him an offer he simply can’t refuse. Views: 30

Since the death of her beloved husband, Wayne, Annie Dawson has single-mindedly refused to allow even the prospect of love toward another man to peek inside her heart. Although many of her neighbors in Stony Point, Maine, have tried to link her romantically with the town’s dashing mayor, Ian Butler, she has maintained her relationship with him wholly at arm’s length. But now, a blast from her past comes in the form of several anonymous telephone calls to Grey Gables, the Victorian home left to her by her grandmother, Betsy Holden. She missed the calls and no message was left, but an Internet search leads her to the caller’s name: Grady Brooks. Memories flood back from her fourteenth year to her first, albeit unrevealed, love. After three decades, what can Grady Brooks want from her—and what could she possibly have for him? At the same time, while cleaning in Grey Gables’ library, Annie comes across a mysterious music box, left to her as the crowning piece of a collection her grandmother had assembled. Beautifully carved, it is the only box in the collection that won’t play—and the only one Annie was not allowed to play with in her carefree childhood summers spent in Stony Point with Gram. Where did Betsy come across the music box? Why had it never been repaired? What made it so extraordinary that it was the prized piece of Gram’s collection? These questions will haunt Annie and will lead her down one of the most painful—and yet one of the most romantic—journeys she has taken during the time she has spent sorting out the mysteries hidden inside the walls of Grey Gables. She will need the help of her best friend, Alice MacFarlane, and all of her companions in the Hook and Needle Club to sort out the mystery of the music box and the unfinished sonata. Views: 30
