Her name was Samantha Sterling and she was pure gold. Rogan Prescott couldn't get over the way the pigtailed kid who'd been his housekeeper's daughter had grown up. She was all fiery curls and sensuous curves—and sticky fingers, evidently. Because the first time Rogan saw Sam after all these years, she was dripping with diamonds—somebody else's! Like a good "big brother," Rogan decided to help Samantha and find her one of his fellow millionaires to give her diamonds—the old-fashioned way. Little did Rogan know Samantha had secrets of her own, and the only thing she planned on stealing was his twenty-four-karat heart.

Samantha Lytton &– the complete box set 1 - The Dimple of Doom Samantha Lytton is either going to end up in jail or famous. Maybe both. 2 - The Dimple Strikes Back If you can't beat them, join them... and then beat them. 3 - The Wrath of Dimple Unforgettable. That's what she's not. Obviously, the solution to a failed acting career and depressing dating desert is to take up with a dimpled art thief, get chased by thugs, lie to the police and almost die. That's not what Samantha Lytton thought would happen when she kissed the guy who said he was an accountant at the office Christmas party. But in her defence -- it was an amazing freaking kiss. The kind of lip-lock that frustrates you in the wee hours. Turns out, thinking with your nether regions can lead to poor decisions. Or perhaps...fantastic ones. Samantha and her burglar travel from Los Angeles to Vegas to Paris to London on adventures that bring Samantha's wildest dreams of stardom to fruition. After spending years falling on her face, she learns to fight for herself and her heart's desire. You can't choose who to love, but you can try to keep his cute butt out of jail and in your bed. No matter where in the world you go, or how many hot movie stars you kiss (um, professionally), you never forget your first criminal. Hopefully, only criminal. Although bad boys with dangerous dimples are nothing but trouble, a relationship can still work as long as the goons don't get you. And if they do, well, at least an actress is good at improvisation.

Sam the Man wants to earn some money and he’s got a cluck-worthy plan in this endearing chapter book that’s the first in a new series from Frances O’Roark Dowell. Sam the Man needs a job. His sister gets twenty bucks a pop for mowing people’s lawns. But seven-year-olds aren’t allowed to mow lawns, so Sam decides to ask his next door neighbor if she needs help doing other chores.
