Warrior's Lady by Gerri Russell
Camden Lockhart vowed to eliminate the Ruthven clan after they had
destroyed his family. All he had left was a small niece and the legacy
of the Charm Stone she carried, but no one knew where the little girl
was.
Rhiannon Ruthven came to the abbey to escape the brutality
of her brothers and find solace. Instead she found the orphaned Violet
Lockhart in need of an escort to her uncle's castle. Rhiannon didn't
know it, but she would be walking straight into a nest of assassins.
Watching
Rhiannon nearly sacrifice her own life to save another's, Camden knew
he could not condemn her to death. He'd have to protect her from the
very men he'd hired to kill her. Scottish legend said the Charm Stone
had the power to heal, but was it strong enough to unite two wounded
hearts?
Sweet Trouble by Susan Mallery
Jesse Keyes has done some serious growing up. With a steady job and a
vibrant four-year-old son, Gabe, she's in a far better place than when
she left Seattle five years ago…pregnant and misunderstood by almost
everyone in her life.
Now it's time to go home and face her demons.
But her sisters, Claire and Nicole, aren't exactly impressed with the
new and improved Jesse. And then there's Matt, Gabe's father, who makes
it clear that he never wants to see her again despite the lust that
still smolders between them.
Jesse doesn't know if she can make up
for all the mistakes of her past. But the promise of sweet nights with
Matt might just give her the extra incentive she needs to make it worth
the trouble.…
Viking Warrior by Connie Mason
He Would Never Forgive
After
a brutal attack on his farmstead, Wulfric the Ruthless had sworn
vengeance on the Danish raiders for killing his young wife. But when he
laid eyes on Reyna the Dane all he could see was a woman of
extraordinary beauty, with flowing hair the color of moonlight and the
body any Valkyrie would envy. She was his thrall, gifted to him by his
brother to warm his bed. Could the beautiful healer also ease the fire
burning in his heart?
She Would Never Forget
Stolen
from her home by wild Norsemen, Reyna would always remember the face of
the barbarian who's destroyed her life. When she first caught sight of
her new master, she though he was the very man she'd vowed to hate
forever. But Wulf's golden body and seductive kisses awoke very
different feelings within her. As one deliciously long Northern light
blended into another, she realized he was no longer her enemy but her
beloved...
Angel of Mercy by Toni Andrews
Last month I killed a man … and now I'm afraid what I might do next
As
a hypnotherapist with a special talent, I'm very good at getting people
to overcome their problems. My own problem, however, is that my talent
comes from a dark place. If I tell you to do something, trust me: you
will do it. Most of the time I can keep things from getting out of hand,
but when my emotions interfere, I lose control. That's when people get
hurt, sometimes even killed.
The only ones who know I've got a
secret are my best friend Sukey and my boyfriend Sam. So far I've been
able to keep them safe from the psychic cross fire, but what if one day I
can't? Like now. Because now I find myself in the shadowy world of
battered women and children, where I've met a little girl who's been
violated in the worst possible way. As you can imagine, my emotions are
about to interfere.
NYPD Red by James Patterson
It's the start of
Hollywood on Hudson, and New York City is swept up in the glamour. Every
night, the red carpet rolls out for movie stars arriving at premieres
in limos; the most exclusive restaurants close for private parties for
wealthy producers and preeminent directors; and thousands of fans gather
with the paparazzi, hoping to catch a glimpse of the most famous and
beautiful faces in the world. With this many celebrities in town,
special task force NYPD Red is on high alert-and they can't afford to
make a single mistake.
Then a world-renowned producer fatally
collapses at his power breakfast, and top NYPD Red Detective Zach Jordan
is the first one on the scene. Zach works with his beautiful new
partner, Detective Kylie MacDonald-who also happens to be his
ex-girlfriend-to discover who the murderer might be. But this is only
the beginning: the most brutal, public, and horrifyingly spectacular
crimes they've ever encountered are about to send all of New York into
chaos, putting NYPD Red on the ropes.
Zach and Kylie know there's
no way of telling what a killer this deranged will do next. With the
whole world watching, they have to find a way to stop a psychopath who
has scripted his finale down to the last explosive detail.
The Lightkeeper's Ball by Colleen Coble
At the elegant Mercy Falls masquerade ball, Olivia's hidden identity will be revealed.
It
is the dawn of a new century and Olivia Stewart is heiress to an
empire. Her family numbers among the Four Hundred--those considered the
wealthiest and most distinguished in America. Unfortunately their wealth
has nearly disappeared, and now their security rests upon the Stewart
daughters marrying well.
Olivia's sister, Eleanor, was engaged to
Harrison Bennett, one of the nation's wealthiest men, but has since
died. Now the pressure is on Olivia to take her place, despite her
suspicions about Eleanor's fiance. Using her family's long-forgotten
English title, Olivia travels to Mercy Falls, California, as Lady
Devonworth, hoping to learn more before committing to marriage. There
she finds that Eleanor's death was no accident. And Harrison is not the
man she thought he would be.
When Mercy Falls holds a charity
masquerade ball to raise funds for the new lighthouse, secrets--and
truths long hidden--will be revealed. But can Harrison really love
Olivia when he finds her true identity? Can she live with the
repercussions of failing her family, or will she finally realize that
nothing--not money, family, or romance--will ever compare to God's
unconditional love?
