Evergreen Place (Wheeler Large Print Book Series)
Release Date: 2010-09-22
Dear Reader,
Guess what? I'm falling in love! With Mack McAfee.
My baby daughter, Noelle, and I have been living next door to Mack since the spring. I'm still a little wary about our relationship, because I haven't always made good decisions when it comes to men. My baby's father, David Rhodes, is testament to that. I'm so worried he might sue for custody.
In the meantime, the World War II letters I found are a wonderful distraction. Both Mack and I are trying to learn what happened to the soldier who wrote them and the woman he loved.
Come by sometime for a glass of iced tea and I'll show you the letters. Plus I'll tell you the latest about Grace and Olivia, my brother Linc and his wife, Lori (who tied the knot about five minutes after they met!), and all our other mutual friends. Oh, and maybe Mack can join us….

Lady Elizabeth, the youngest and most headstrong of the three Banning sisters, has been engaged three times, and has most scandalously broken off all three engagements.

Neil Severin is a wicked rogue, black of heart and black of reputation. A man of no morals, devoid of compassion, he is a governmentsanctioned assassin. And his newest target is a man Beth holds dear. When the flame-haired beauty thwarts his plan, Neil exacts his own brand of spicy revenge.
Beth despises him. Neil doesn't care. But circumstances most unexpectedly throw them together, and with Beth's life in danger, Neil finds himself in the unexpected role of hero, racing to save her before it's too late.
What he never expects is the twist fate hands him: instead of his saving her, Beth winds up saving him. When the ruthless organization he works for turns its agents loose on him, only Beth stands between him and a death he thought he didn't fear.
In a fight for their lives, Neil and Beth travel the British countryside, fleeing the ruthless killers out for Neil's blood, the men after Beth, and their
growing attraction to each other. Can Neil forgive himself for his past and accept Beth's love? Can Beth overcome her fear and trust Neil? Will she have to choose between him and her family? And most important, can they both survive long enough to begin a new life together?

Jaclyn Wilde is a wedding planner who loves her job'usually. But
helping Carrie Edwards with her Big Day has been an unrelenting
nightmare. Carrie is a bridezilla of mythic nastiness, a diva whose
tantrums are just about as crazy as her demands. But the unpleasant
task at hand turns seriously criminal when Carrie is brutally
murdered and everyone involved with the ceremony is accusing one
another of doing the deed.
The problem is, most everyone'from the cake maker and the florist
to the wedding-gown retailer and the bridesmaids' dressmaker'had
his or her own reason for wanting the bride dead, including Jaclyn.
And while those who felt Carrie's wrath are now smiling at her
demise, Jaclyn refuses to celebrate tragedy, especially since she
finds herself in the shadow of suspicion.
�
Assigned to the case, Detective Eric Wilder finds that there's too
much evidence pointing toward too many suspects. Compounding his
problems is Jaclyn, with whom he shared one deeply passionate night
before Carrie's death. Being a prime suspect means that Jaclyn is
hands-off just when Eric would rather be hands-on. As the heat
intensifies between Eric and Jaclyn, a cold-blooded murderer moves
dangerously close. And this time the target is not a bride but one
particularly irresistible wedding planner, unaware of a killer's
vow.
