Again by Kathleen Gilles Seidel

Again
by Kathleen Gilles Seidel

Just when your life seems to be going exactly as planned; just when you think you are probably happy; and just when you think there will be no surprises, along comes the love you never knew you needed...

JENNY

Jenny Cotton is having the time of her life as the head writer of daytime's only historical soap opera. But beneath her dashing sparkle is a vulnerable woman who can't seem to write herself out of a longtime relationship ...until Alec Cameron walks before the camera and into her life. Jenny can't imagine being able to love ...again.

ALEC

Alec had perfected his craft with the same broad-shouldered courage that got him through his failed marriage. He thinks of himself as "one of the good guys," and yet he hides wounds no one, including himself, can see. And he can't stand to watch the woman he loves run from happiness ...again.

Now, suddenly, the story that unfolds on weekday afternoons is more than just a script for Jenny and Alec--it's their story. But can they see how close they are to happiness, or how close they are to losing it ...?

Don't Forget to Smile by Kathleen Gilles Seidel

Don't Forget to Smile
by Kathleen Gilles Seidel

Sometimes, a dream must be shattered before it can come true

A long, brightly lit runway, an audience hushed in anticipation as a tuxedoed announcer is about to read a single name, the name of a radiant young woman, who will be crowned the most beautiful in America. Tory Duncan, a stunning coed from South Carolina holds her breath. All her life, she has worked for this moment, prayed for its glory. But the name that is read is not hers.

A long, dimly lit bar in the heart of the Oregon's timber country, the clinking of glasses. Behind the smoky bar stands the proprietor, Tory Duncan, still stunning, still searching for happiness. And Joe Brigham, a forthright and handsome man from a logging family, stares at her with a love deep and pure. But Tory wonders -- is it ever possible to let go of a fragile past to find the joy of an uncertain future...?

by Kathleen Gilles Seidel

When Jack's mother marries Amy's widowed father, the newlyweds invite all the children to spend the summer at the Legends' retreat in northern Minnesota. While their parents hoped they'd all like each other, they hadn't counted on just how well Jack and Amy would get along. For affection unexpectedly flares into a burning attraction that threatens to destroy already fragile bonds. Caught between long-simmering conflicts and clashing personalities, Jack and Amy agree to deny their desire until vacation is over. But it seems the more they resist, the deeper they find themselves falling in love. With a passion this strong, how can they possibly wait 'til SUMMER'S END

A Most Uncommon Degree of Popularity by Kathleen Gilles Seidel

A Most Uncommon Degree of Popularity

Her daughter enjoyed a most uncommon degree of popularity.Emma, Jane Austen

Your own daughter. . . one of the popular girls?

On the first day of middle school, Lydia Meadows, a former lawyer turned full-time mother, is startled to discover that her daughter Erin is one of the popular girls, a tight foursome whose mothers are also great friends. Lydia has always thought of popular girls as ambitious little manipulators who enjoy being cruel. But Erin is kind and well-adjusted. Maybe this popularity thing won't be so bad after all.

Then a new student ruthlessly targets Erin to boost her own popularity, and Lydia helplessly wonders what to do when her daughter's phone stops ringing. And the uneasiness among the girls begins to affect the friendship of the mothers--even though they are all grown women who should know better. Has their driven energy, once directed toward their careers, turned into an obsession with the social lives of their daughters?
