Bachelor Battalion

No woman was going to spring her mantrap on Sergeant Nick Paretti! And that included Gina Santini. They'd agreed to publicly play boyfriend/girlfriend, and Nick had never intended to keep up the pretense in Gina's bedroom. But her luscious mouth left him poised before a pleasure-precipice he couldn't resist. So, he dived in, and took Gina's virginity with him. The beautiful temptress claimed she was after experience, not marriage, but her heart obviously disagreed. Meanwhile, something told Nick the guards at his heart had thrown down all their weapons and surrendered...

When Angela Santini felt the power of First Sergeant Dan Mahoney's smoldering gaze, she dared to throw caution to the wind. It had been so long since she'd be held, kissed, touched... But how was this straitlaced single mom supposed to know that one fantasy-filled night of passion with this mesmerizing marine would never be enough? Dan Mahoney knew the pitfalls of getting too close to soft-hearted Angela Santini and her lonely son. But if the elusive bachelor was so set on a life of solitude, why couldn't he just stay away? Was it because this Cassanova in uniform might actually be...in love?

If someone had told her only yesterday that a perfect, in every way!, stranger would be delivering her baby, Annie Foster would never have believed it. But here she was, stranded on top of a mountain, with gorgeous Gunnery Sergeant John Paretti holding her newborn daughter in the crook of his powerful arm... And the more time the single mom spent gazing into John's pale blue eyes, the harder it became to ignore needs that had been neglected far too long. Needs that only the right man could satisfy, or the right marine...

A torrential hurricane stranded Karen Beckett in a tiny motel room with Gunnery Sergeant Sam Paretti, the one man she never wanted to see again! Just months before, Karen had severed all ties with the gorgeous marine, but bittersweet memories of their love refused to vacate her mind. Now her rescuer demanded a hefty price for shelter from the storm. His eyes shimmered with a desire equal to the hunger clawing at Karen's control. But she had to resist! Because to surrender to their urgent need would mean exposing her past...and admitting her fathomless love for Sam...
