      Livie byla vždycky „slečna Dokonalá“, ale po nástupu na prestižní univerzitu zjišťuje, že to s ní zase tak skvělé není. Musí zvládnout první porážky, deziluzi, přizpůsobit své plány do budoucnosti a hlavně změnit přístup sama k sobě. A do toho se jí ještě připlete láska… Není divu, že v tom víru změn natropí pár chybiček. Jenže chyby jsou od toho, aby se napravovaly, a nová Livie bude možná ještě mnohem zajímavější osobnost než ta, za kterou se kdysi považovala.

When Jonah arrives on her doorstep with a proposition she can't dismiss, she takes the leap and rushes back to Alaska to begin their exciting future together.

      From the internationally bestselling author of The Simple Wild comes the story of a woman at a crossroads in her life, struggling between the safe route and the one that will only lead to more heartbreak. Veterinarian Marie Lehr knows unrequited love all too well after pining for her best friend, only to watch him marry another woman. It's a mistake she will never make again, especially not when she can practically hear the clock ticking on her childbearing years. The trouble is, she can't seem to find anyone who appeals to her even a fraction as much as that burly bush pilot did. Competitive musher Tyler Brady certainly doesn't, especially not after the heated altercation with the handsome but arrogant, spiteful man. Or so she thinks. While volunteering at the Iditarod Sled Dog Race, Marie discovers that first impressions may have been false, and her attraction to Tyler is very real. But his heart belongs to someone else, leaving him with nothing to offer but friendship. Marie's been down this road before and knows how that ends. Yet, no matter how hard she works to keep from falling for Tyler, it seems she's doomed to follow her own trail once again.

      Life is a mixed bag for Piper Calloway. On the one hand, she's a twenty-nine-year-old VP at her dad's multibillion-dollar real estate development firm, and living the high single life with her two best friends in a swanky downtown penthouse. On the other hand, she's considered a pair of sexy legs in a male-dominated world and constantly has to prove her worth. Plus she's stuck seeing her narcissistic ex-fiancé--a fellow VP--on the other side of her glass office wall every day. Things get exponentially more complicated for Piper when she runs into Kyle Miller--the handsome new security guard at Calloway Group, and coincidentally the first love of her life. The guy she hasn't seen or heard from since they were summer camp counselors together. The guy from the wrong side of the tracks. The guy who apparently doesn't even remember her name. Piper may be a high-powered businesswoman now, but she soon realizes that her schoolgirl crush is still alive and strong, and crippling her concentration. What's more, despite Kyle's distant attitude, she's convinced their reunion isn't at all coincidental, and that his feelings for her still run deep. And she's determined to make him admit to them, no matter the consequences
