The Calhoun Way by Nora Roberts

The Calhouns are back in these two beloved stories by New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts. For the Love of Lilah While two of her sisters are set up with their own happily-ever-afters, laid-back Lilah Calhoun would rather focus on her connection to Great-Grandma Bianca and the heirloom Calhoun emeralds, which have become public interest. But when Max Quartermain washes up on the shores of the family estate, Lilah takes the handsome stranger in, hoping she can figure out the secrets he's reluctant to reveal. Suzanna's Surrender As the eldest sister, single mother Suzanna Calhoun is determined to protect the family legacy. She's intent on settling the mystery of the missing Calhoun emeralds, and her search leads to temperamental ex-cop Holt Bradford, who is just as sullen now as the teenager she remembers. But like it or not, Suzanna needs Holt's help...and his dangerous allure is surprisingly enticing too.
