Books like To Love and To Cherish by Joan Elliott Pickart
Her man of the mist... — In the foggy cocoon of night, Alinda Hunter bared her soul to a mysterious stranger on a shadowy beach, then surrender her body and heart -- but ran away without ever asking his name! The rugged man with summer-sky eyes had made her feel alive again after months of grieving over a love betrayed, but she knew he was a fantasy, a magical gift that she could never keep.
Paul-Anthony Payton vowed to find the lady whose yearning spirit had filled him with hope and made him believe in happiness, but once he traced her, he never expected she'd deny what they'd shared... or that she'd hide a truth that could bind them for always.
Alida felt bewitched by the spell of Paul-Anthony's passion, but she feared that loving meant losing -- and she was terrified to risk the sorrow that ecstasy seemed to promise. Paul-Anthony had shared her secrets and understood her pain, but could Alida escape the ghosts of memory and trust in his forever love?

There was definitely a naked man asleep in Cassidy Cole's bathtub! With his ruggedly handsome face and "kissin' lips," Sagan Jones was a single woman's dream, and how could she resist a smoothtalking vagabond with roving hands who promised he'd stay only until his luggage caught up with him? Sagan had come to Cherokee, Arizona, after promising Cassidy's brother he'd check up on her. He'd flexed his muscles, smiled his heartstopping smile, and won over everyone in town except her; she'd surrendered her bed to his lanky frame-would her virtue be next? Dancing in his arms filled her with sweet ecstasy, and where he touched, she melted. But Sagan had spent years running from loneliness, and though his lips vowed endless pleasures, Cassidy knew he wasn't a man to put down roots... and she was staying pit. Could she make him see that in a world full of Mirages and dreams that died with day, her love was real and everlasting?
