Not Free to Love
8 pp · Romance

Lois Shelton owes everything to fashion designer Morgan Miller—he transformed her from a stockroom girl into his famous model—but when she meets the charming Everett Hale at one of Miller's showings, she realizes her feelings for her employer are gratitude, not love. Miller's controlling interference in her personal life and his unexpected marriage proposal force Lois to confront a painful question: does she truly belong to the man who made her, or is she free to choose her own path?

Dangerous Encounter
7 pp · Romance

Gayle Cartwright, secretary to her father's television producer, boards a train to visit her aunt with doubts about her fiancé Tom Dean's true feelings—but a mysterious stranger forces her into a bold lie when detectives chase him through the cars, then disappears. When the man resurfaces at her aunt's door claiming to be Tom, Gayle discovers a fortune in diamonds hidden in her pocket and learns his real name is Drake Thorne, a test pilot caught in a dangerous corporate rivalry. As Gayle finds herself drawn deeper into Drake's world, she must untangle whether he's genuinely trustworthy or simply the most persuasive liar she's ever met.

Round Trip to Romance
7 pp · Romance

When a young woman's dreams of escaping her small South Carolina town collide with unexpected opportunity, she finds herself drawn into a whirlwind—a recording artist offering her a job with his band, excitement beyond anything she imagined, and his personal attention all at once. But as the offer becomes real and her ambitions finally seem within reach, she can't shake the nagging fear that something too good to be true always carries a price. Will she risk everything on this chance, or will doubt pull her back to the life she was desperate to leave behind?

Second-Hand Glamour
8 pp · Romance

Penny Deren has always dreamed of the glamorous life—the expensive clothes, the admiring glances, the boy who'd finally notice her. When she lands a job in the city, she befriends Nanette, a model who connects her with a source of stunning second-hand fashions at bargain prices. Back home on vacation, dressed in her new finery, Penny catches the eye of Keith Williams, the handsome boy she'd always wanted, and they fall for each other—but she lets him believe she's a glamorous city girl with important work, not the girl behind the blouse counter. Now Keith is coming to the city for business, and Penny must scramble to maintain the illusion or risk losing him.
