"An interesting romance anthology"
Adam by Jennifer Blake. In Louisiana, Adam
confronts Lara as to the whereabouts of her Aunt Kim wanted
for questioning in the killing of her husband, the nephew
of the local mob chief. As Lara and Adam chat, Kim enters
the room just before three gangsters arrive. As they try
to stay safe the younger couple finds love enters the mix. A Night in Paradise by Heather Graham. In
Florida, senior citizens Michael and Mary agree to marry.
Michael informs his grandson Max while Mary tells her
granddaughter Aurora. Max is stunned that his beloved
grandfather is marrying a gold digger, Aurora. He
confronts Aurora who believes he is more concerned with his
inheritance than Max's well being. When Max learns the
truth he thinks this is great, but seeks revenge on Aurora
by hiding the facts from him until they kiss. Garden Cop by Diana Palmer. In Georgia, FBI
agent Curtis visits his mother while looking for a missing
government informant Abe, who is reportedly nearby. Curtis
observes neighbor Mary growing marijuana and reports her.
The next day Curtis sees the plants and pulls them out of
the ground. Mary, a deputy DA, accuses Curtis of killing
her tomato plants. As they become better acquainted they
fall in love, but the mob wants Abe dead and will kill
anyone else in the way. These three amusing tales star a contemporary southern
female initially disliking the new man in her life before
falling in love with him. Though the story lines never
fully develop the romances, each tale is fun and the cast
provides a flavor of the region.

CURT RUSSELL RIDES AGAIN...
Remember Curt Russell, the Secret Service agent from
LORD OF THE DESERT and THE TEXAS RANGER, who
was dying to get into the FBI?
Well, he has, sadly for them, and he's stationed in a small
northeast Georgia community where he meets the Gardener
from Hell, who lives across the street from his mother's
house and she's growing illegal agriculture, right in front
of Curt Russell, FBI agent! (Or so it seems)
