With Fairfax growing ever more powerful, Xanthe enlists the help of her boyfriend Liam, taking him back in time with her.

Format: Books
Summary: "For years health organizations have preached the same rules for losing weight: restrict your calories, eat less, exercise more. It's simple enough. So why doesn't it work for millions of overweight or obese Americans?

It makes clear the vital misconceptions in how we've come to think about obesity and diet (no, people do not become fat simply because they eat too much; hormones play the critical role) and uses the collected clinical experience of the medical community to provide essential practical advice"--

Summary: This cowboy of mine: Kirby Regan just quit her career in Washington, D.C., so she could move back to Wyoming and buy her family's ranch.

Like the mustangs he treats, veterinarian and rancher Casey Merrick prefers to live wild and free, which is why a relationship is not in the cards for him. He doesn't mind sharing his space with a gorgeous stranger, as long as they can both keep their distance-a task that begins to seem impossible as the attraction between them heats up. But before they can worry about the spark smoldering between them, Casey must find a way to protect Kirby from nature's most ruthless conditions and a convicted killer on the loose. Wildflower Ranch: A continuation of Daisies in the Canyon; a novella from the Canyon Series. Half-sisters Abby, Shiloh, and Bonnie Malloy never knew one another all that well growing up.
