The Italians

In the Italian's Bed Tess Daniels's new job in Italy is off to a bad start when wealthy vineyard owner Rafe di Castelli accuses her of being responsible for the disappearance of his teenage son. It's actually Tess's younger sister whom Rafe is after -- and she's gone missing, too! Despite Rafe's arrogant accusal, Tess decides to help him locate the runaways. The situation is difficult enough without the incredible sexual tension that's growing between them. But Rafe pushes Tess away. He cannot let himself be consumed by the intense desire that would surely follow... A Fever in the Blood Cass fled to Italy, and to Ben. He was the one person in the world who could help her. And help she desperately needed. So it was a shock to find that she'd only added to her problems instead of solving them. She was a grown woman now. She had four years of marriage and a great many daunting experiences behind her. And yet the attraction between them flared up again. It was an attraction that had to be denied at all costs - because there was just no way that Ben and Cassandra could be happy together. Guilty The man of her fantasies belonged to another -- her daughter. Slim, lovely Laura Fox didn't look like the mother of a twenty-one-year-old, although her safe, predictable life -- save the occasional run-in with her headstrong daughter -- quite befitted that of a country matron. Her world turned upside down when she met Jake Lombardi. Was it simply lust for something she'd never had -- or did this passionate man's potent sensuality savage her emotions and lay bare the unguarded hunger of her soul? She despised him for making her want him. And oh, how Laura wanted him. But he was too young, too rich...and involved with her own daughter!
