Stranded

Champagne ... fireworks ... ice storms and broken elevators? What happens when New Year's Eve doesn't go as planned? Find out in these six romances about people forced to ring in the new year with each other when fate pushes them together. The Promise by Carly Fall Three years ago, Gabby watched her lover and best friend, Lucas Tate, walk out of her life. Despite his promise that they'd be reunited after her high school graduation, a few months later, Lucas' correspondence ceased and she never heard from him again. She encounters him once more on a snowy New Year's Eve - when he walks into the convenience store where she's working. With the bad weather closing all highways, the two end up stranded together for the night, trapped with each other, along with their past. Will Lucas' reasons for abandoning Gabby be enough for her to forgive him and move into the future he so desperately wants with her? When the Party's Over by Casse NaRome Le Lan Lee has a choice to make. On New Year's Eve, she receives a message from her past. Will she answer Fate's call? The decision regarding helping an old flame out of a jam will lead her down the path of life or death, and love or hate. Satisfaction by Elise Marion Audrey Hammond can't think of anything worse than being trapped in her office with co-worker Shane Watson on New Year's Eve. Aside from the fact that he's beaten her out of more lucrative advertising accounts than she can count, he's a smooth-talking smart ass who always seems to know how to get under her skin. Yet, when a broken elevator at an office party leaves the two stuck together with no chance of escape, Audrey may find that Shane is not at all the person she thought he was - and maybe, she'll find herself falling for the last guy on Earth she'd have ever thought she wanted. Natural Woman by Kacey Hammell After a heartbreaking tragedy years ago, Cora has lived in a self-inflicted solitude, hidden away from the pitying looks of her neighbors.

And his gentle hands teach her that there is more to her than the scars she carries. Dante's Heaven by Natalie G. Owens The path to paradise begins in Hell... Dante Santoro is out to redeem the sins of his father, and won't stop until he's settled the score and made up for lost time. Destiny King has built a new life for herself from the ruins of pain and tragedy. There are things that can never be forgotten, betrayals that will never be forgiven. But sometimes, the horrors of the past can be erased through a night of magic, happenstance ... and second chances. Hacking for Love by Zee Monodee Aloof and reserved business magnate Enzo Caparelli settles for a quiet night in on this New Year's Eve, as does scarred and cancer-recovering medical doctor Viveka 'Vivi' Sari at The Cape, Enzo's hotel in Central Manhattan.
