A Bride for One Season by Imani King
I’m what they call a hostess, an entertainer at one of the finest bars in Kyoto.
That means three things: I don’t kiss. I don’t sleep with my clients. And I don’t do relationships.
My life in Japan has protected me from the sorrows of my past—I’m an island, and I can’t be hurt. If it weren’t for the debt collectors breathing down my neck, my life would be perfect.
Danilo Yamakawa—half-Japanese, half-Brazilian, all man—strolls into my life with a proposal I can’t possibly refuse.
He’s brash. He’s pushy. He’s in control, just like his father before him.
But with Danilo, I can finally leave this country and live without ties to my life back home.
It soon becomes clear that I can’t be around Danilo without wanting to break every rule—the ones from my job, and the ones that have carefully guided my life.
With any other man, the solution would be easy.
But I’ve just agreed to become Danilo’s wife, and the payout is ten million dollars.
I just hope he doesn’t break me – and the walls that keep my past from crashing back in.

Teaching the Cowboy by Holley Trent
A year in godforsaken Storafalt, Wyoming? No big deal…or so traveling tutor Veronica Silver tells herself. She needs hands-on experience with a special group of students to qualify for a grant, and her assigned passel of ranch kids are special cases, all right. Ronnie loves a challenge, but pitted against a small town’s far-too-active grapevine and a woeful lack of amenities, she worries she won’t be able to hack it.
With the education system in Storafalt sorely lacking, rancher John Lundstrom thought hiring a private tutor would ease some of his considerable stress. What he didn’t expect was a powerful mutual attraction with Ronnie or her steadfast refusal to let him properly court her. She’s on a one-year assignment and wants no entanglements when it’s time to go home to North Carolina.
An unplanned pregnancy and Ronnie’s ensuing deception spins the Lundstrom ranch into a major upheaval. John refuses to let Ronnie run away with his daughter, but he may be forced to compromise when her homesickness threatens to drive a wedge between the two lonely hearts once and for all.
