You're Still The One by 4 authors
Love reading a book where there are 4 stories by 4 different authors. Gives me a chance to see what the author is about and usually add them to my favorites..
The Apple Orchard by Cathy Lamb
Allie Pellitier had once lived in a trailer park across from an apple orchard. Both her parents are gone and she got fired from her job. She's now in the hospital about to get sewn back together when in walks Dr. Jace Rios. They have a past together and she was attempting to just get out from seeing him again, not fast enough..
She ends up being treated a few times in the hospital by him and then he starts checking up on her and refusing to have a meal with him. He just picks her up and takes her to his house on the hill and she fantasizes about him and knows they can't be anything more than friends.
They both love the outdoors and I love that they at Yellowstone for a summer. He doesn't know why they split up, it was something that happened to her and she's not talking, yet..
We learn how she grew up with her mother and then her father. After she left when she was able to we learn of the abuse physically and most importantly emotionally. She learns what happens next by a neighbor that sells paintings...

A kiss before Midnight by Mary Carter
She is in New Orleans as a junior with 3 of her senior friends and they have 3 things to do to complete the scavenger hunt. 3 hurricane drinks, make out at the cemetery and get a reading from the voodoo woman. Years later Rebecca Ryan's plane is landing in New Orleans, again...
She conceived that night, Miles. She also had hooked up with Grant Dodge the great jazz trumpet player. She's going back now as a gift from Miles for her birthday, 25 years later to the city she first found love in. She is going to confront the father and move on with her life. Only 2 of the girls she originally went with had stood by her...
She is also confronting the fortune teller about the curse she put on her...
Book goes from the present and in the next chapter to the past. Took me a while to get the hang of which year I was in..
Love to hear about her jewelry making and what she uses for materials..
Detailed descriptions of New Orleans and the surrounding area made me feel like I was there, was so exact.
She's got a lot of decisions to make...

Romeo & Juliet ..and Jane by Elizabeth Bass
It's all over town Jane is seeing Roy again. She's fostering another dog til she can find a good home.
They started in the school play Romeo and Juliet and he's kicking himself now as it was the best time of his life. His mom is gone now and he's settling her affairs.
She now lived in what they called the playhouse along with all the animals she had. Carl the vet had stopped in also and thought maybe the yellow couch for the vet waiting room was a mistake.
Her mother was after her to fix herself up a bit and flirt so she could get married.
Love hearing about the 'JAM' what a festival!
Roy is back in town and with the money he donated the town build a new auditorium and he is to give a speech, but he has a surprise for Jane.

The Devil and Mr. Chocolate by Janet Dailey
Kitty Hamilton owned the art gallery
Sebastian Cole was an artist who would appear when he wanted to borrow items because she lived right next door.
Marcel makes chocolate and Kitty has agreed to marry him but how will she explain her ex husband who's helping her bath in the tub..
Lots of sexual moments that only add to this tale.
