A Notorious Proposition
2 years ago, while on assignment for the Crown, darkly handsome Garrett Burke left Lady Ivy
Wentworth sleeping naked in his bed as he went in search of the missing Martello diamonds.
After apprehending the dastartdly thief, he intended to spend the rest of his life in the arms of
the aubur haired beauty. But when the case came to a shocking & dangerous end, Garrett
was certain he’d been betrayed. Ivy once loved Garrett with a virtuous heart, but these days
she can barely stand him. Arriving at a deserted estate on a mysterious errand, she never
ecpected to see him again, nor feel the same ecstasy she once did at his ouch, Now, joined
with him in the search for the legendary jewels, she is willing to risk everything. Everything,
that is, except her heart.
Alexandra Lang-Carlin
Wings of Love
Lovely young Julianna was nothing but an outspoken country lass when she dared match wits
with Lord Charles Ashmont in the dusty lanes of St Cuthberts. But she swore that 1 day she
would marry the dashing, fair haired lord. Restored to her rightful place as heiress to an
English earl, she was caught up in a new life of aristocratic wealth & haunting tragedy. Never
again would she be an innocent girl; never would she forget the man whose soul shattering
passion had sent her soaring on.
Alice Ekert-Rotholz
Checkpoint Orinoco
Carla Moll. Provocatively beautiful, a journalist searching for an S.S. killer in Venezuela, she
was suddenly torn between her career & her love for a man with a desperate secret. Carloz
Sanchez. Seductively handsome, powerful & rich, he controlled a vast corporate empire &
could possess any woman he wanted. Naomi Cooper, a German woman tortured by
nightmares of wartime terror, she lost her husband to another woman & a deadly
confrontation with a still potent evil. Pilar Alvares, the Venezuelan heiress who claimed Carlos
Sanchez as her own, she vowed to keep him no matter what the price or degradation. From
Hilter’s Germany to contemporary South America they were men & women haunted by
dangerous obsessions & forced to choose between passion & betrayal.
Amanda Quick
Dangerous
At five & twenty, Prudence Merryweather knew very well the risks a woman took by visiting a
gentleman in the dead of night. But bearding the notorious Earl of Angelstone in his den was
the only way to stop him from engaging her hot headed brother in a duel. And that was why
she found herself ushered into Sebastian’s forbidding presence at 3 in the morning – and
thoroughly kissed before dawn. She was a country bred innocent – and an intriguing
experience for a man who dwelt more in the shadows than in the sunshine. Yet as her
boldness drew Prue into one dangerous episode after another. Sebastian found himself torn
between a raging hunger to possess her & a driving need to protect her. And the reckless
beauty would soon need all the protection she could get.
Amanda Quick
The River Knows
The first kiss occurred in a dimly lit hallway on the upper floor of Elwin Hastings’s grand
house. Louisa Bryce never saw it coming. Of course, handsome, wealthy Anthony Stalbridge
couldn’t possibly have had romantic intentions. The kiss was merely meant to distract the
armed guard about to catch the 2 unlikely sleuths. After all, the only thing these 2 interlopers
have in common is a passionate interest in uncovering the dastardly secrets of Mr. Hastings –
a prominent memer of Society whom they suscpect of murder. Brought together by their
desire for the truth, Anthony & Louisa finally discover the incriminating evidence they’re
looking for. But bringing Hastings to justice will be more perilous than they anticipate,
especially since their thrilling very well get in the way.
Amanda Scott
Dangerous Games
When Nicholas Barrington, eldest son of the Earl of Ulcombe, first met Melissa Seacourt, he
suspected something was amiss. The desperation he sensed beneath her well bred beauty
haunted him. He didn’t realize how desperate Melissa really was until he found her again at a
Newmarket gambling club – being auctioned off by her father to the highest bidder. So, for a
mere 20,000 guineas, Nick bought himself a wife. But their troubles were just beginning. With
a villain hot on their heels, & a fortune – and their lives – hanging in the balance, Nick &
Melissa would soon gamble everything on the most dangerous & irresistible game of all: their
growing love.
Andrea Kane
Wishes in the Wind
Nicole Aldridge, daughter of England’s most acclaimed jockey, Nick Aldridge, whisks her
father into hiding to protect him from blackmailers who have threatened his life for refusing to
throw a race. Desperate to keep her father safe & the 2 of them fed, Nicole dresses as a boy
& answers an ad addressed to her father by the Marquis of Tyreham. As Nick’s protege, she
wins the position of jockey, hired by the marquis to run the race of a lifetime: the celebrated
Epsom Derby. Dustin Kingsley, Marquis of Tyreham, reonwed as a thorougbred breeder & the
ton’s most sought after bachelor, is restless, empty – until he meets the beautiful stranger
sitting by the Thames. Determined to win Nicole’s heart, Dustin plunges headlong into the
ominous mystery eclipsing their future, hell bent on convincing her that he’s the only man for
her.
Anna Maxted
Being Committed
After Hannah finds herself divorced at the age of 20, she is convinced you have to be out of
your mind (or desperate) to tie the knot. And life without a husband of 31 is just fine, thank
you very much. She has a steady job as a private investigator (albeit a mediocre one), a
devoted boyfriend, Jason, & a wonderful relationship with her dad (it’s a shame her mother is
such a lost cause). Then, on a romantic weekend at a faux ancient castle, Jason proposes
marriage, leaving Hannah with no choice but the obvious, to turn him down cold. Much to her
horror, only 4 weeks later, Jason is engaged to his next door neighbor, a fine baker &
proficient seamstress’. Has Hannah blown her last chance at a solid relationship? Jason
agrees to give her another chance, but only if she meets his terms – among them a promise
to address her issues with her ex husband, Jack. Brimming with her characteristic blend of
humor & heartache, Anna Maxted’s Being Committed is a perceptive look at intimacy (and its
substitutes), commitment phobia, & the power others have over us.
Anne Avery
The Highayman’s Daughter
Though her father had been the legendary highwayman who lost his life for the innkeeper’s
daughter he loved, down to earth Lizzie Tynsdale had no use for romance. She had enough
to do running the inn she’d inherited without falling for a handsome face or a pair of broad
shoulders. But when a mysterious guest appeared at the inn one stormy night, it seemed
history was destined to repeat itself. Once again, the redcoats were ordered to hunt down an
innocent man, & Lizzzie, like her mother before her, would risk her own safety to prevent his
capture. For when the dark eyed strnager took her in his arms for a heart stopping kiss, she
understood how a woman could defy death itself for the man of her dreams.
Anne Mallory
Masquerading the Marquess
Calliope Minton is never far from scandal. And her greatest pleasure is capturing the nobility
at their worst. Donning a daring disguise, she poses as a society courtesan to get closer to
London’s leading bachelor. However, her ruse might have brought Calliope too close to her
favorite target: James Trenton, Marquess of Angelford, a man who appears less foolish &
more dashing with every meeting. James is certain the enchantress is hiding something – and
she is driving him mad with desire & curiosity. Already occupied with trying to expose the
‘artist’ who has been humiliating him in the papers, James doen’t need another mystery! But
all the lady’s secrets will be revealed when they are forced to join together to find a vanished
mutual acquaintance – and perilous circumstance tosses the marquess’s bewitching,
irresisistible adversary into his arms.
Anne Rivers Siddons
Heartbreak Hotel
In Montgomery, Alabama, Martin Luther King has organized a bus boycott. In Tuscaloosa,
outrage surrounds the entrance of the state university’s first black student. But at little
Randolp University, sweltering in the summer heat, life remains dreamily the same. At Kappa
House, the sorority sisters talk of who has pinned whom, & whether they can sneak past their
housemother so they can party at an out of town bar. Even among this privileged gourp
pretty, popular Kappa sister Maggie Deloach is unquestionably one of the elite until she
commits a single act of defiance & courage that forever alters the way others think of her, &
how Maggie thinks of herself.

widow of dubious virtue. As their courtroom battle of wits escalates, the charismatic counselor
begins to defrost the Freezer Queen’s impenetrable facade, allowing Quint to legally
maneuver his way into Rachel’s all too eager heart.

be no more thrilling than this sudden reappearance of his arch nemesis, the Comte de St.
Germain, the man who had murdered Alex’s one true love & whose heart he had torn out over
60 years ago. No less thrilling was the woman of whom Alex now dreamed, a daring beauty
who made him hark back to older days, older hopes – a time of love & lust & the highest
adventure. She promised escape from a solitary eternity, reminded him that even where
darkness beckoned, there was still the sky, the stars immortal &…devide night.

been praying for a little distraction from his own depressing company, so he threw open the
door & stepped out onto the shoulder of the Colorado road. Funny, sexy & touching – Natural
