Thursday afternoons sizzle with no-strings sex for two women, who meet each week in a hotel room to forget their past--and their present.

Thursday Afternoons

Dr. Joss McNab needs a wife. As if juggling surgery and being an instructor isn’t enough, she’s recently taken on a more demanding administrative role at the medical school that was named after her legendary father. To make things worse, she’s now required to attend a growing number of galas, fundraisers and conventions. Wouldn’t having a wife--a wife of convenience--help ease the burden that’s threatening to overtake her world? Sarah Young’s heart belongs to painting. Much as she’d like to dismiss Joss’s ridiculous proposal, the art world isn’t paying well and she’s running short on cash. Playing a trophy wife a few hours a week would cover her bills and still leave plenty of time to devote to her artwork. The deal is struck. But will the convenient pairing turn into disaster or prove to be a stroke of genius? With feelings deepening and attraction undeniable, can two women who have agreed to settle discover that they could actually have it all?

By Mutual Consent

Passion and patriotism sizzle on the ice at the Winter Olympics. It’s been a dozen years since two of the world’s best women hockey players, Niki Hartling and Eva Caruso, first competed against each other in the Olympic Games. The pressure of the intense USA-Canada rivalry forced an end to their love affair, and both women moved on--Niki to coach and to marry, Eva to stretch out a playing career that her ravaged body can barely sustain anymore. The Games are upon them once again. Eva wants one last chance to beat the Canadians and win hockey’s biggest prize. Niki, now a widow and single mother, strives to coach her country to gold, even as the obstacles against her mount. The locker room seems to have ears and there are few people Niki and Eva can trust. Rivals and former lovers on hockey’s biggest stage, will Niki and Eva feel the same spark that first brought them together? And can they win on--and off--the ice with the whole world watching?

Heartsick

Claire Melbourne is a steely newspaper editor who's just lost the biggest scoop of her career, thanks to her naïve intern's mistake. Firing the young Ellie Kirkland for the offense was a no-brainer. But when fate brings the two women together again, Claire finds herself questioning everything she thought she was--especially her cynical, take-no-prisoners approach to life. When she's not breaking stories or breaking in reporters, Claire's one outlet is to lose herself in Motown music and in the seat of a cheerful antique Mustang. But lose herself to the much younger, far-too-nice Ellie? There's no breaking news there. Nope. That's a story that needs to be spiked before it ever sees print. Ellie Kirkland is at loose ends--and not for the first time. Resistant to following the path her parents insist on, she's been trying out careers like she's trying on outfits at Banana Republic. Now that her dream of being a journalist is over, Ellie must begin again. And the woman who crushed that very dream is the very woman who just might hold the key to Ellie's future.
