-- 1998 Maggie Winner
Fifteen years after witnessing a terrible
murder, Emily Wilkop pledged a vow of silence. Years later she is
still haunted by the memory. Now 30 and responsible for her late
sister's emotionally troubled daughter, Emily finds the fear of that

Just Married ... Again (1998)
Overwork hadn't driven away the pain of his wife's leaving him, so
when his doctor prescribed a weekend alone in his mountain cabin,
Michael Kelly agreed. Arriving in a blizzard to find Maddy there,
too, he expected a confrontation--but what he got was a poker to the
head . . . followed by amnesia! Maddy expected one man and found
another, but could this tender, passionate stranger erase the
memories of a marriage gone wrong?
Weaving delight out of disaster and unforgettable romance from
temptation and trouble, Charlotte Hughes once again captures every
reader's heart! Marriage had made them angry strangers, driven two
kindred spirits down different roads, but could a bump on the head
and a blow to the heart help him win back the only woman he'd ever
loved? Night Kills (1998)
-- 1999 Maggie Winner
The local good-time girl has just been brutally murdered, shattering
the tranquillity of Lee Cates's sleepy Southern hometown. Everyone
in Comfrey is relieved when an outsider who'd spent that fatal night
with the victim is arrested--until it begins to look like maybe he's
not guilty.
Rashly probing into the murder, the blindly loyal Lee learns that
not everybody loved the fast-living woman--though too many men had.
Then one night Lee's business is vandalized, and more mysterious
events ensue. And Lee realizes--maybe too late--that in a community
this small, one sister's secrets may lead to the other's death...
The Last Southern Belle
(Loveswept #919) (1999)
Through the window of his Dixieland Grill, Sam Ballard got an eyeful
of the blonde in a bridal gown and wondered what wrong turn she'd
taken to end up in a broken-down limo in Pinckney, Georgia! Annie
Bridges didn't know what she wanted out of life, but it sure wasn't
a wedding to a man she barely knew. Could a spitfire with smarts
find a happy ending with a small-town hunk who made her laugh and
loved her all night long?
Sweet and sassy, Charlotte's Hughes's tale of a lady on the lam and
a country lawyer in love sparkles with spicy humor and sizzles with
sultry heat. He'd figured her for a spoiled society brat, who'd turn
out to be nothing but trouble, but when she proved a whiz at work
and a pleasure at play, could he charm her into giving marriage one
more chance? A New Attitude (2001,
2006)

is out of control. But Marilee's learning on her own that a little
attitude can go a long way -- suddenly she's taking charge and
taking chances she'd never imagined. And watching her blossom
reminds Sam of some long-forgotten dreams of his own. Now he's just
got to convince her to turn some of that attitude his way .
Hot Shot (2002)
When Frankie arrives to find her rental home in flames, she proceeds
to chew out one of the locals -- only to realize she's just told off
her new boss, the annoyingly gorgeous and smug Sheriff Matt Webber.

life in Purdyville is going to get very interesting indeed,
especially after he watches her take down the local tough guy in two
seconds flat. Even the crime rate seems to have risen to the
occasion. But underneath that tough-cookie exterior: Matt's pretty
sure Frankie's got a soft spot . . . he just hopes it's for him.

Full Series with
Janet Evanovich
"Back in the 80s Janet broke into the world
of fiction with a small category romance written under the name Steffie
Hall. It was called Hero at Large. She went on to write 11 more category
romances, two as Steffie Hall and nine as Janet Evanovich. All around 180
pages and all with a limited print run of one month. In September of 2002,
with help from friend and author Charlotte Hughes, the first of Janet's
pre-Plum romance novels was re-released in an updated and expanded form.
Full House, written under the name Steffie Hall, was originally published in
July 1989 for Second Chance at Love. Now not only can you catch a peek of
vintage Janet, but Janet and Charlotte have teamed up to continue with the
Full House characters in a new and original romantic, adventure series. It's
a series for those of you with gentle hearts, adventurous spirits and a
slightly warped sense of humor." -- Janet' Evanovich's

is a story that's taking her for a ride on the wild side, complete with
two assassins, a washed-up stripper, and an insane poacher. Between a
spray of bullets and a fast getaway, could it get any more romantic-- or
dangerous? Max and Jamie are betting their lives on a long shot.

the fast lane. Not to mention plenty of steamy action between Jamie and
Max.

dodging passes from the amorous French poodle next door!

entrepreneur, Annie Fortenberry, who has inherited her grandmother's B&B
(and its eccentric handyman Erdle Thorney). According to a local psychic
she also inherited a spirit from its glory days as a brothel-- not the
kind of publicity the Peach Tree Bed & Breakfast needs if it's hosting
millionaire Max Holt's upcoming wedding! If rumors of a naughty,
prank-playing ghost aren't stressful enough, a mysterious man has
arrived with an eye on Annie and her master suite. Wes Bridges is all
leather and denim, sporting a two-day beard, straddling a Harley, and
sending the B&B's testosterone level through the roof. Annie's cool
demeanor may be dropping as fast as Wes's jeans, but leave it to her
missing ex-husband to dampen the passion! Turns out someone has done him
in, and all evidence points to Annie! Wrapped up in a murder plot, Annie
must find the killer, save her own neck, and get back to where she was--
wrapped up in Wes's strong loving arms...
