I'm in love with the enemy and he's falling for me too. The problem? He can never know who I really am... When a writing conference and the promise of a career-making cover story send me to Kasper Ridge, I find myself face to face with Archie Kasper-the man my family blames for my brother's death. Worse? I'm falling for him--the one man my family can never accept... or forgive. Archie Kasper, AKA Ghost, with those haunted eyes and a burden of guilt that slouches his broad shoulders, is nothing like the villain my father reviles. The former fighter pilot, now resort owner, carries the weight of the world, believing he doesn't deserve love or happiness. And as much as I want to hate him, I can't. The more time I spend with Archie, helping him with the mysterious treasure hunt that could save his resort, the more I see the man behind the guilt. He's kind, he's broken, and he's beautiful. And to my utter shock, he's slowly making me forget why I came here in the first place. But I'm living a lie. I'm the sister of the man Archie believes he killed, and every moment I spend with him, every laugh we share, and every look that passes between us, feels like a betrayal. A betrayal that will surely break us when the truth comes out. Because it will come out. Secrets this big always do. And when Archie finds out who I am, I'll lose not only the story that could make my career but the man who's slowly becoming my reason to stay. Get the final book in the steamy, small town Kasper Ridge series!

Soulmates don't always start as friends. Sometimes they start as enemies. And sometimes they need cheese to help seal the deal...ERICA: Signing up for a matchmaking service was not my idea.But when Andrew-the-Hand-Model dumped me, my brother suggested I try Mr. Match. And I figured it couldn't hurt. As it was, I'd never get away from meathead moron soccer players (since my brother plays keeper for the South Bay Sharks and I manage PR for the team.) But Mr. Match is a moron too because he matched me with a guy I see at work every day. A guy who has a different girl on his arm at every turn. And a soccer player.Fernando Fuerte, the "Fuerte Fire," is one guy I can assure you is NOT my match. FERNANDO: Getting girls is not a problem. Getting girls who care about something besides my status as the South Bay Sharks star striker, my salary, and my social status?Yeah. That's the problem. So when my buddy Max tells me he's actually Mr. Match-the secret proprietor of San Diego's hottest matchmaking app, I let him convince me to try it. And Erica Johnson is not actually a bad match-only she doesn't seem to agree. And then there's the small matter of her being in the middle of trying to save the team (and me) when the owner's ex brings to light some, ahem, unsavory accusations about me...And then there's her enormous and disapproving twin brother...And there's something about cheese, too. But if I have my way? Erica will definitely be my match.
