She lost her job, her car needs a new transmission, and she hasn't had a date in too long to remember. Her life takes a turn for the better, however, when a single red rose arrives from a "secret admirer." Cassie can't imagine who might have sent it, but just having something to look forward to pulls her out of her doldrums. Before long she's back on track, cleaned up, and going on job interviews. What Cassie doesn't know is that her secret admirer doesn't exist. Al Davenport, the harried florist who'd filled in for a sick deliveryman, had delivered the rose to her house by mistake. When he goes back the next day to correct his error, he can't believe the change in the woman who greets him. Could a simple rose make that much of a difference? Al decides to continue the charade rather than admit his mistake. But was it a simple mistake, or had Cupid's arrow unerringly hit its mark?Leta Nolan Childers CUPID CRASHES THE PARTY Her name was Polly...not Pollyanna. She'd given up looking at the world through rose colored glasses a long time ago. She realized her mission in life was not a vine-covered cottage with a loving husband and a brood of her own. No, it was to mother and guide her orphan nephew--even if that meant being a Cub Scout leader. His name was Thorn...and Polly considered him a sharp thorn in her posterior. He seemed to be everywhere--and constantly interfering in her nephew's life. Thorn couldn't belief his misfortune. He'd moved to avoid beautiful women--on the advice of his grandfather who'd him told that he'd only find happiness with a plain woman other men wouldn't even notice. But no man in his right mind could help but notice Polly. She was drop dead gorgeous...obviously a "love 'em and leave 'em bleeding" type. Only little Tim knew better than both the so-called adults...but he'd need a lot of help from Cupid. Elizabeth Delisi THE HEART OF THE MATTER When Brett Newman accompanies his brother Bryan into Violet Webber's wedding shop, The Cupid Connection, Violet figures Brett's the best-looking male she's seen in a long time. But she knows his type: the hunk with all the women hanging off him, who uses women and discards them as if they were tissues. Violet's amazed to find that he's just as cynical about love and romance as she is. She's even more astonished to find herself falling in love with him, despite her best intentions. Can Cupid remove the blinders from Violet's and Brett's eyes–and the padlocks from their hearts? Kathleen Culligan Techler A BIT OF DECEPTION Bitter experience has shown Diane that a wealthy woman like herself cannot find true love. She lives for her son and her manufacturing business, with her line dance classes as her social life. Since the death of his perfect wife, Jim has closed his heart to everything in life but his daughters and his work. His friends try to coax him out of his shell. When fate brings Diane and Jim together, how could a bit of deception possibly be wrong? It will surely determine whether or not Jim's love is real. Or will the scheme backfire?
