Emily Dalton

Be Straight with Me is an unforgettable memoir-in-verse about a love that blurs the boundaries of gender and sexuality--told from the perspective of a young, straight woman who finds herself in a serious relationship with her gay male best friend. With unabashed honesty and piercing emotional clarity, Emily Dalton brings to life this timely, true story about a nonconforming romance and its consequences. During her sophomore year at Middlebury College, Emily meets Max--"you" as she intimately refers to him in the book. Not exactly a tomboy, but not quite a girly girl either, Emily is intent on finding a masculine boyfriend to assuage a deeply rooted fear that she may not be quite feminine enough. Max--a boisterous class clown beloved by his many straight guy friends--has recently come out as gay and is embracing his newly claimed identity. Initially, Max and Emily dislike each other, but end up growing close after a make-out dare on Halloween. Then one night, Max reveals an unexpected physical attraction that catches them both by surprise. The relationship begins, playfully and in secret, and then spirals into something more. Max and Emily's journey takes many forms--they experiment with drugs; they travel abroad; they try sleeping with other people (together), and everything in between--all in the name of "this bizarre, beautiful thing" they call love.

Now Melissa was alone, pregnant and in need of a job—and her new employer was Charles Avery! Melissa's shock at seeing Charles again was matched only by her mortification at the attraction he roused in her. Her former admirer had grown into a handsome, successful hunk—and a widowed single dad with three adorable children in need of a nanny. Hiding her feelings for her boss as well as the embarrassing truth about her situation seemed a wise professional move. But could she resist Charles's charm and three disarming kids who didn't want a nanny, but a mommy?

One Hard-Luck Baby Had the Whole Town Abuzz… When Liam McAllister, Lord Roderick, returned from England after twenty years, he landed on Dr. Allie Lockwood's doorstep—with an abandoned baby boy! The townfolk knew the score: the playboy aristocrat had become a devoted widowed dad yearning for a son—and their dedicated, divorced hometown doc hungered for the children she couldn't have. Sure, their vying intentions to singlehandedly adopt the babe were oceans apart. But Liam was clearly thrilled with both Allie and the tot, while secretly smitten Allie certainly deserved that her dreams of marriage and motherhood should come true. So why couldn't one adorable infant—and the plain-as-day bonding among the three—make for a perfect family?

New Year's Bachelors New Year's Resolution #2: Harass a Hunk! Dylan McAllister, Salt Lake City's hottest attorney-at-law, dripped masculinity like summer rain off a hot tin roof. But when Elise Allen used an inherited ticket to the New Year's bachelor auction to buy him, she had only one thing on her mind: revenge. Dylan had taken Elise to the cleaners in the courtroom, but a week by her side in her busy vet practice would be the perfect payback. Contending with a jealous chimp, a dehydrated tarantula and an amorous pig would surely leave even a hotshot lawyer begging for mercy…if only Elise could keep her mind off his briefs.
