Ever felt like the last item left on the clearance rack? As a successful patent attorney, Ashley Stockingdale has all the makings of a perfect catch: the looks, the brains, even a convertible. But at 31, she's beginning to wonder if she's been passed over for good. Deciding to adopt a new attitude, Ashley suddenly becomes the romantic interest of three men within a matter of days. While her heart enjoys turning the tables on the dating game, the rest of her previously predictable world is being turned upside down. Is it more than Ashley can handle? Or is it exactly what she wants? Award-wining author Kristin Billerbeck combines comedy with spunk to create a memorable story in "What a Girl Wants"--an all-too-realistic picture of a single girl's search for being content with who she is . . . with or without a man.

She's armed--with hot irons, sharp shears, and a flair for color.She's dangerous--truly bad news for bad hair.And she's going to do whatever it takes to make a place for herself in the exclusive Beverly Hills salon.Even if that means sweeping hair, emptying trash, scrubbing dummy heads, and making soy lattes for the stars that come to Yoshi's salon.Even if it means hiding the fact that she's not really an up-and-comer from New York, but a drunk's daughter from small-town Wyoming.Even if it means igoring her attraction to a tall, dark stranger in a fedora who just stepped off the elevator . . . and into her heart.But can a talented hairdresser from the sticks really make it in image-obsessed L.A.? And can she ever find true love and real success in a town that wrote the book on fake?

The first novel in the Spa Girls collection, "She's All That" focuses on Lilly Jacobs, a San Francisco fashion designer determined that her "bad hair" is the root source of her problems--but a nagging grandmother, a vixen boss, and well-meaning friends certainly aren't helping matters.

Grace Brawlins is determined to succeed at raising her son alone - atoning for her mistakes. When a firefighter befriends her boy, will she accept the kind gesture or let her wounded spirit cloud her judgment? Stefani Willems has had a chance to buy her family's land taken from her by a shrewd Colorado cowboy. When her job is also threatened by his work in the Bay Area, will her grudges become too large to unload?

But when she meets her brother's new social worker, can she trust the leading of her heart over her mind? Emily Jensen has been looking for the ideal romance. When she meets a man with a past that is jaded with ongoing consequences, can she believe his cleaned up life is more than a passing fad?
