Wanted: Perfect Partner
Single mum Meg Remington has been fixed up on a date with a man named Steve. Her well-meaning teenage daughter found him in the personal ads. Now her little matchmaker has produced a photo of him. Meg can't believe her eyes, he's gorgeous –– only now it's too late to do anything, because he's at the door!
Father's Day
Robin Masterson's ten–year–old son, Jeff, wanted to make friends with the dog next door. The problem was that Blackie belonged to Cole Camden –– not the friendliest man in the Mastersons' new neighbourhood.
Cole hadn't always been so solitary, so aloof. The deaths of his wife and son had embittered him, and that was something Robin could understand. Her own much–loved husband had died when Jeff was just a baby.
Now, for the first time in ten years, Robin found herself responding to a man. But was Cole interested in her –– or in replacing the family he'd lost?

Ellen Cunningham had decided to go back to college in Seattle. She would get her degree and become the best first–grade teacher around. But money was tight, and she was lucky to find inexpensive lodging in a house with three young college boys. Though she was only five years older, Ellen played housemother in exchange for low rent, a situation that pleased everyone.
Except Reed Morgan, the absentee owner. When he returned unexpectedly, he wasn't happy to discover his house occupied by a bunch of college boys and Ellen. Especially Ellen…
