Dominic Halstad was the most attractive man Susan had ever met – tall, handsome, celebrated and rich. Small wonder it was that in comparison with him Susan found her fiancé weak, dull and unimaginative. And as she gradually began to wonder if she was as important in David’s life as his mother, she found the seeds of trouble were being rapidly sown. For even if her first loyalty were not still to David, what right had she to think of Dominic – and what right had Dominic to return her feelings – when he was a married man?

There had been two men so far in Madeline's life - her late husband, Joe, and her boss, Adrian. Both had been kind and uncomplicated, wanting only to cherish and look after her. But now another man had surged into her life - Nicholas Vitale. Handsome, dynamic, devastatingly attractive, he was utterly unlike anyone she had ever met before. But he certainly could not be described as gentle or kind, still less did he want to protect and cherish her. And Madeline could not resist him. In getting so far out of her depth with Nicholas, was Madeline doing anything but stirring up trouble for herself? And what about her duty to that other important person in her life - her young daughter Diana?

For a pretty schoolteacher who is new to Springwater, an unexpected love turns up in the most unlikely place. Rachel English has traveled to Springwater to take a post as the frontier town's first teacher. Although the ramshackle schoolhouse-and her half-wild pupils-are not what she had envisioned, Rachel spiritedly makes the best of her new surroundings. But when she takes a stand against the scandalous saloon across the road from the school, she is more than surprised by her own powerful attraction to the bar's part-owner, handsome widower Trey Hargreaves. The father of a beautiful part-Lakota Sioux girl, Trey appears to be everything that Rachel, with her proper Eastern upbringing, should avoid. When Rachel's fiance died during the Civil War, she turned her passions to teaching, and closed a door in her heart. Now Trey, with his troubled past, is the only man who can soothe her hidden sorrow, and give Rachel a chance to embrace the love of a lifetime.
