It was this deplorable man who on a night of wild debauchery caused Catherine to be abducted and brought to him at a country inn.

Catherine was an innocent no longer--yet she had so much to learn about love and the maddening deceptions of the heart....

Enchantingly lovely Laura Dalwood was little more than a girl when she was given in marriage to a man whose glittering wealth concealed a dark secret revealed to her only on her wedding night. Now her husband's death had freed her from that odious union -- and Laura vowed never to make so...  more

Enchantingly lovely Laura Dalwood was little more than a girl when she was given in marriage to a man whose glittering wealth concealed a dark secret revealed to her only on her wedding night. Now her husband's death had freed her from that odious union -- and Laura vowed never to make so grievous an error again. But how could she reject the handsome and brilliant Mark Cheney, Earl of Dartmouth, when his proposal was one that no young woman of sense or sensibility could rightly decline? And what could she do when, as his bride, he carried her over the threshold to allow her to discover just how much she could love a man -- and then, to her distress, just how much she could fear him...

A LADY IN DISGUISE Valentine Ardsley disguised herself as a teenaged boy to take a job as a groom on the magnificent Yorkshire estate of the arrogantly self-assured, imperiously handsome, Lord Diccon Leyburn. But her daring escape from the narrow confines of young ladyhood did not last long. Valentine was unmasked by Lord Leyburn with shameful ease. Even worse, when Leyburn made her an offer of marriage, he made it insultingly clear that this was a matter of duty on his part, and certainly not desire. Never would Valentine accept such an odious offer. Instead she would go to London to find a gentleman who would really love her -- even if this meant pretending she could love any man but the infuriatingly irresistible Lord Leyburn in return...

A tidal wave of desire flooded through her at the touch of his lips. She clung to him as he pressed her back onto the pillows, his powerful body following hers... When beautiful, dark-haired Vanessa MacIan met Edward Romney, Earl of Linton, she told herself she should hate this strong and handsome English lord. For Vanessa was daughter to a proud Scottish chieftain who was the sworn enemy of England and a leader in a rising against British rule. But it was not hate but hunger that this man of so much power and passion woke within the Highland beauty. And as the flames of desire they felt for each other flared higher and higher, devouring all restraint and every barrier between them, even the violence of war could not defeat a blazing love that conquered all....

Young Lady Jane Mitzmaurice had everything that Regency society approved-flawless beauty, perfect breeding, and a respectable fortune. But she also had a mind and heart of her own that set heads shaking and tongues wagging. Whoever heard of a well-born Miss spending more time in the saddle than in the drawing room? How could she prefer the company of David Chance, her handsome horse-trainer, to that of Julian Wrexham, the most attractive nobleman in England? Lady Jane had taken London society by storm -- but now a whirlwind of scandal was rising as she rode roughshod over all conventions and prepared to take a leap that could destroy her good name and leave her hear forever broken...

Love and adventure in England and Africa. Lord Richard Wells, Duke of Crewe, had shocked the Regency world by sailing off to darkest Africa. Now, five years later, his lovely daughter, Julianna, returned to London with a story of her father's tragic death and her own miraculous rescue by the notorious English adventurer, John Champernoun.

For Julianne was determined to leave her perilous past far behind, and find happiness in a supremely safe marriage to the splendidly handsome, wealthy, honorable and adoring Lord William Rutherford. But Julianne was about to learn that she knew more about the heart of the dark continent than she did about her own -- when John Champernoun reentered her life to wake memories and desires as sharp-clawed as leopards and even more dangerous...

A MOST MADDENING MATE Nicholas Beauchamp, the Earl of Winslow, was baffled by Margarita's infernally inconvenient anger. True, he still visited his mistress, Catherine Alnwick, whenever his fancy dictated. True, he still availed himself of the fabled favors of the ravishing Lady Eleanor Rushton, who certainly never let her marriage vows interfere with her pleasures. But surely Margarita should be able to see that as his wife she still possessed the best part of him, and be satisfied with the bargain. Unfortunately, Margarita had so very much to learn about the ways of the world -- and even more to teach the imperious earl about the secrets of the heart...

CATRIONA WAS NO STRANGER TO SCANDAL -- BUT SHE WAS AN INNOCENT IN LOVE Only a girl as captivating as Catriona Maclan could have overcome the scandal of her birth to shine as the most sought-after young lady of the London season. Only a girl as daring as Catriona would have played with the fiery attentions of suitors as different as the eminently eligible, handsome and proper Lord Wareham and the notoriously worldly and wicked Marquis of Hampton. Only a girl as stubborn as Catriona would have persisted in adoring the one man she could not have -- the brilliant and iron-willed Duke of Burford, the guardian who saw her every fault and was so blind to all else...
