  ELAINE BARBIERI  -  WINTER MOON
  Judd McBain was a widower, certain he would never love again.  Then one winter day he met the beautiful new schoolteacher.  Accustomed to speaking her mind, she could be very irritating...but she was capable of sparking a fire in his frozen heart that could melt even the iciest Vermont lake.
  
  EVELYN ROGERS  -  GENTLE RAIN
  In Springtime, the most unexpected things can blossom.  But love was unlikely between twenty-one-year-old Daisy Abernathy, who was preparing to leave her Tennessee home for the big city, and Nathan Keene, a moonshiner as sour as the mash in his still.  It could only be a miracle of nature.
  
  KAREN LOCKWOOD  -  SUMMER STORM

  LORI COPELAND  -  GOLDEN HARVEST
