Bücher der Reihe Family Reunion--Wisdom of the Ancestors

Wesley Greenfield, aka Ice or the Iceman, a self-professed “corner boy” has no intention of stepping up to Dr. Rosalyn Hunter, his high-school heart throb, even though she has stepped up to help him protect three abandoned neighborhood kids.  As the principal of the local elementary school, in his view, she ranks too far above his lowly position as the owner and operator of a struggling community center.Dr. Rosalyn Hunter is not about to let an opportunity to be with the man she cares so deeply for slip through her fingers.  She is bound and determined to prove to Ice that her doctorate and status in life are no barriers to the intimate relationship she has long wanted to have with him since their high school days.  To save the three minor children, they must move in together and join forces.  Will that be enough to prove to Wesley that he and Rosalyn aren’t walking on uneven ground or will he continue to believe that they are walking on shaky ground? 

What is a southern, gentile society lady of impeccable taste, breeding, and education to do when her husband of nearly 20 years announces he is divorcing her on the day they deliver their youngest son to college? Loretta Hill Mason, head mistress of the Columbia Academy in South Carolina, did not see her husband's declaration coming and had no idea what she should do next. She couldn't just emulate Miss Scarlet and say "Fiddly dee, I'll think about it tomorrow." Her soon-to-be ex-husband, Randolph, gave her a few weeks to clear her belongings out of the home she made into a show place once featured in Southern Living, listed on the Fabulous Gardens Tour, and envied by their circle of high-society friends and relations. Now she doesn't even have a bank account or credit card in her own name or any other resources to fall back on.Multi-billionaire Justin W. McCoy learned the hard way from the background of a meager beginning to becoming a titan in the hotel industry. Though he stumbled a few times along the way with an ill-fated marriage, he is now happily divorced, and his teenaged daughter is the brightest spot in his life. Business is good and would be better when he closes the deal to acquire the Delaware Group's hotel chain. That acquisition would make McCoy Hotels, Resorts and Conference Centers one of the top ten travel industry chains in the world. Yet it could come with a dangerous price tag. A pilgrimage to the first resort he ever purchased suddenly reunites him with a woman he fell in love with from afar over 20 years earlier, but had never met. Tagged with the nickname The Rejuvenator in the hotel industry, he never lets an opportunity slip through his fingers in business, and he won't let it happen in his private life this time.Fate is a fickle finger when the Delaware Group's criminal syndicate wants more than a sale of their hotels to McCoy Enterprises and they will stop at nothing, even involving Justin's daughter, Jessica, and anyone else they can use to their advantage to get what they want. Justin gambles it all to save his business from the criminal element, win his safety, and the safety of the ones he holds most dear, including Loretta.

Tina Justice burst into the club like she owned the joint.  Heads quickly turned and murmurs rose amid lively applause. Newspaper photographers and reporters scurried ahead of her, frantically snapping pictures and shouting questions while her security team cleared the way.  She ignored it all. . Restaurant patrons jumped to their feet, applauding in roof-raising adulation and admiration of her, sounding like hundreds of geese rising from a lake, noisily squawking and honking, wings loudly beating the air. One would have thought she was giving out thousand-dollar bills for all the attention focused on her. Yet, no one could deny that she looked like a cool million, freshly minted in her money-green, shimmering sheath. Initially, businessman Nico Collins thought all of the hoopla was over the very popular male matinee idol and heartthrob escorting her for the evening. The actor had just won best male actor for his role in the latest film her company, Sweet Justice Productions, released.  However, the crowd quickly disabused Nico of that notion when they started chanting “Sweet Justice” in a rhythmic rendition of the title song from the soundtrack of her blockbuster movie. Neither Tina nor Nico could have predicted how their lives would crash together and cause cataclysmic sparks to fly.  When two billionaire captains of industry collide, could both survive the experience?   I  

IT'S ALL IN THE FAMILY--- WHEN YOU KNOW it's right, you don't let anything stand in your way. That's what Tucker Cavanaugh thought on the bright fall day when a vision of loveliness moving like a graceful gazelle crossed his path on the university campus. Abandoning his friends, he gave chase only to lose her in the crowd of students and professors. Still, he pledged to find her again and when he did, he wouldn't let her slip away. When the young, handsome US Marine medical student approached her, Whitney Ivy Alexander, a law school student, wasn't looking her best. Yet, one look into Tucker's handsome face, she knew what they would be together was completely right for the both of them. Still, could their interracial romance withstand the challenges they faced? DEDICATED TO DUTY is Commander Helen Marlowe's mantra. Her Code Name: Helen of Troy or HOT as her counterparts and pals chose to call her. Not because of the temperature or her disposition, but because of her extraordinarily attractive physical features. Assets her camouflage battle dress uniform fatigues, Cammy hat, and aviator shades failed to disguise. No matter how much activity surrounded her, that wickedly handsome man, whose face and physique had been created by the gods on a particularly good day, was stuck in her head, preventing her from operating at full capacity. Independently wealthy US Air Force jet fighter pilot Captain Shawn Baxter Rodgers, Code Name: Hot Rod, stood over six-four with the body of an Adonis, clever hands, and a grin on his too-handsome face that promised endless acts of naughtiness. Shawn's and Helen's weekend R&R to Las Vegas produced a daughter Helen had never seen before she disappeared from his life. Shawn was raising their daughter alone, but vowed he'd find the love of his life to make them a family. Could the life he wanted to offer Helen shake her commitment to her secret agent life?
