Just Kate
Just Kate: Ever since Kate Blake's sister died in a car accident, it's been just her. Just Kate to keep her family together. Just Kate to live up to her senator father's expectations and her mother's idea of perfection. But now, after a painful betrayal by those she loves, she decides it's time to live for herself and claim what she wants. And what she wants is Sean Harris. The only man she's ever loved. And her late sister's husband. But years have passed since Abby's accident, and both Sean and Kate feel it's time to move on. Still, when Kate meets the rugged Australian on his home turf, she is surprised by what she finds with Sean--a sense of home and belonging that she's never known. And the one person who loves her for nothing else except being ... just Kate. His only wife: Being back in Blue Ridge, Arizona, to help her grandmother was almost a relief after her busy job as a nurse in a Tucson E.R. Aubrey Stuart badly needed a few weeks of peace and quiet-but facing her past was another thing entirely. The boy she'd eloped with and hastily divorced ten years ago had matured. And Gage Raintree the man was a thousand times more tempting than he'd been then. They'd been too young and unsure of each other to fight back when their families decided they'd made a terrible mistake-especially when Gage thought his duty was to devote his life to the family ranch. But now he had six weeks before Aubrey went back to her career. Six weeks to show his first-and only-love he deserved a second chance ...

Read for connection, not completion.
