Designing Women

📖 The Scoop

Romance fans won’t be able to resist these colorful stories of four designers who use their creativity to refresh their love lives.

Simple Gone South: The last time Brantley Kincaid had an argument with someone, a loved one ended up in Merritt Cemetery. He’s high-strung enough about moving back home to the memories without running into his childhood playmate, Lucy Mead, who’s all grown up and designing the homes of everyone who matters in Merritt. But bringing the right balance to Brantley’s mess might be more than she can measure.

Enlisted by Love: Ex-army officer Matthew Blake is eager to start a new career, until he comes up against the most challenging obstacle he’s ever encountered: Greta Ferguson, the interior designer who challenges his every order. Will stubbornness spell curtains for what could be a dynamic relationship?

Baby by Design: Tony Corcarelli’s dying nonna is shamelessly pressuring him to choose a wife and kids or the priesthood. Trish DeVign is a successful interior designer, single by choice and satisfied…except for that ticking biological clock. When she asks Tony to escort her to a wedding, a night of fun and flirtation turns serious. Maybe a calculated conception is the answer they’ve both been looking for.

Heart of Design: The tabloids portray flirtatious Ian O’Connor as Hollywood’s latest playboy, but Sophie Hartland is just there to renovate his bedroom, not become another notch on his bedpost. Yet Ian finds her a refreshing change from the actress wannabes trying to hop aboard his new gravy train of success. Can Sophie ignore her traitorous libido—and, more importantly, can she protect her heart in this game of wills?
