Black-Tie Affair
Bierce, Jane
PRECIOUS GEMS

All Jeanellen Barbour wanted was to taste one evening of Palm Beach high society. So she crashed the charity ball wearing a borrowed gown and some pretty jewelry her grandmother had left her, hoping no one would notice they were made of glass. But when the handsome socialite stepped forward and demanded to know why she was wearing a million dollars worth of jewelry, Jean knew that a lifetime of just managing to make ends meet was gone forever.

PRICELESS LOVE

Cort van Roy picked the green-eyed blond out of the crowd in an instant, and why not? The rose brooch she wore at her cleavage was a family heirloom that had disappeared over sixty years ago. At first he wanted to ask the young beauty a few pointed questions...now he wanted to offer her his heart. But would she accept the giddy swirl of the new lifestyle that came with it? One thing was clear: the value of love was becoming more precious than all the gemstones in the world!
