Romance Title Quiz, Part 5!

We are WAY past due for another romance title quiz, and there are some doozies on the new acquisitions page at the library. And I'll admit, they suffer for being piled together, like when my sister used to make fun of the fact that all the books I read were called By the Sword, Up the Sword, Through the Sword, On the Sword, etc.  There are patterns, is what I'm saying.

You actually did really well! I did them with a pattern this time so I woudn't forget which one was which: A, B, C, D, A, B, C, etc. Until the second to last one, of course, and then the last one are all real. That's right--all. real.

I LOVE your interpretation of the last one, though!
