Late nights & love lines / by Maxwell, Avery,author.;
The job was simple. Answer the phone, solve the single dad's dilemma, and move on. I'm the temporary solution. The fill-in. The short-term Single Dad Hotline Helper until a more suitable one can be found. I don't get attached, I don't stick around, and I certainly don't fall for the single dad. Until the job said, "Hold my beer," and tipped my world upside down. Suddenly my past and present are colliding to create a future I didn't ask for. One I'm not even sure I want. One I know I'm not cut out for. A live-in nanny for my childhood crush? Yeah, no thanks! But when Sebastian Walker reenters my life with three children full of sadness that I feel in my soul, how can I turn them away? He takes my superstitions and runaway tendencies in stride while claiming my days. But before I know it, he's demanding my nights too. When it's his touch that soothes the fears inside me, what's a girl to do? --

Can't walk away / by James, Sandy. author.;
"In Nashville the stars shine a little brighter, songs sound a little sweeter, and love lasts a lifetime. Young, rich, and better looking than a man has a right to be, successful songwriter Brad "Hitman" Maxwell was once Nashville's biggest celebrity. Then a heartbreaking loss and a shocking betrayal caused his light to go out. Now, instead of pouring his soul into song, he pours beers at Words & Music. His bar is the perfect escape--a place to forget his past--until the night she takes the stage ... Savannah Wolf used to dream of becoming Nashville's hottest star. Now, as a young single mom, she dreams of a steady income and being home to tuck her daughter into bed. So when Brad Maxwell offers her the gig of a lifetime--playing as the headliner at Words & Music--Savannah discovers the best of both worlds. And she refuses to ruin this opportunity by falling for her sexy boss. Except that Brad suddenly starts writing music again ... music inspired by her."-- Provided by publisher.
