However, her family’s standing and her minor infractions are looked on with affection. Until she goes too far. Thus, she is banished to the wilds of Cornwall with her brother and cousin in attendance. Like a magnet, trouble follows when she is drawn to the portrait of a man at the heart of a scandal. He is known as the Devil of Montlaine, accused of witchcraft and murder. But these were things that cannot deter, Naughty Lady Ness! THE BLUE DRAWING ROOM Carmen Caine Penniless and jilted, Eliza Plowman accepts a position as governess to Lord Alistair Kennedy’s illegitimate children. When Eliza sets foot in the Scottish lord’s carriage, she faces the most dangerous foe a woman can face: a charming rogue. The danger is not only to her heart, however, but to her life, as well. In an effort to deny her son’s illegitimate children, Alistair’s stepmother insists on a dour governess who will break their rebellious spirits. Alistair, however, decides that the pretty lass with a colorful French vocabulary who shows up in his stepmother’s drawing room is exactly what the children need. If the notion offends his stepmother, all the better. If the lass is what he needs… well, a man can’t ask for more. His stepmother doesn’t intend for Alistair to open his heart to her grandchildren, or the woman who cares for them. Her plans include forcing them onto the streets. ROMANCING THE ROGUE Lana Williams One enchanted evening. One irrevocable moment. Two lives changed forever. Caroline Gold is desperate to save her family from financial ruin with a proposal from a wealthy duke. But a misstep has her engaged to the wrong man--Richard Walker, the Earl of Aberland, a handsome but cynical rogue with barely a farthing to his name. Richard spies for the Crown under the guise of a wastrel rogue and seeks revenge for a fallen comrade killed by a notorious villain. Offering for the beautiful Caroline creates an unwelcome distraction. Yet the desire he finds with her makes him wonder if a life--and love--is possible...but only after he claims justice. Caroline quickly sees there is more to Richard than expected, and his kindness toward her ailing father melts her heart. Yet marrying Richard won’t save her family despite the consuming passion she discovers in his arms. A French spy posing as an English lord is on the loose. Can Richard unveil the man’s identity and stop him before he destroys all Richard holds dear, including Caroline? A RAKE LIKE NO OTHER Sue-Ellen Welfonder Love is the greatest magic… When Highland laird Lucian MacRae of Lyongate Hall leaves his home in northern Scotland to tend business in London, he never expects to meet the one woman who cannot just steal his heart, but might also help him break a centuries-old family curse. Lady Melissa Tandy is not popular with English gentry – as a half-Scottish lass and a rebellious miss, at that – her wild ways and daring set her apart. Now someone is also trying to kill her. So when a dashing Highland lord insists on rescuing her, she has little reason not to run away with him to the Highlands, and every reason to fall in love. less
