Book excerpt: FIRST THREE BOOKS IN THE SERIES includes Going Back for Romeo Not Without Juliet and Collecting Isobelle ROMEO: Jillian is an American lured back to the 15th century to rescue a plaid-clad Romeo and Juliet before their story can end in tragedy. The monster standing in her way, however, is a handsome Highlander who might just be her own Romeo...a Romeo she must leave behind. Montgomery would prefer to go down in history as the heartless creature rather than betray his secrets. But when he falls in love with the prophesied faery who has come to expose him, he'll have to learn a wee lesson from the star-crossed lovers or suffer the fate to which he once condemned them. JULIET: Juliet has a hit man, the FBI, a long-lost sister, and a handful of handsome Highlanders hunting her through time. But she's not going back until she gets what's hers. And her hunters won't go back either--not without Juliet. Quinn's timing stinks. He's about to die a martyr, which would have been fine with him a year before, but 15th century Scotland has revived his survival instincts and he's decided he wants to live after all. His only hope? Making one of his foes believe Quinn can control the future. When Juliet and Quinn find they are meant for each other, they'll have to maneuver around a centuries-old curse and a villain with a higher purpose of his own--or everything they want will be out of their hands forever. ISOBELLE: If burying her alive didn't bring her to her senses, what will? Isobelle's soft heart for star-crossed lovers has delivered her to the shores of Venice, and to the attention of God's Dragon, a man whose responsibilities include trying witches. Her Highlander guardian has his eye on the New World, but if he doesn't stay close, Isobelle will end up in the dragon's fire. Temptation hasn't been a problem for Gaspar in years, but when a fiery Scotswoman bursts into his territory spouting words of witchcraft, what tempts him most is to put a great distance between them. But the beauty is a danger to herself, and who better to eliminate that danger, than God's Dragon? It will be a simple thing, surely, to keep her from reaching beneath his armor...

Book Synopsis Written in My Own Heart's Blood by : Diana Gabaldon
Download or read book Written in My Own Heart's Blood written by Diana Gabaldon and published by Doubleday Canada. This book was released on 2014-06-10 with total page 1284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her now classic novel Outlander, Diana Gabaldon told the story of Claire Randall, an English ex-combat nurse who walks through a stone circle in the Scottish Highlands in 1946, and disappears . . . into 1743. The story unfolded from there in seven bestselling novels, and CNN has called it “a grand adventure written on a canvas that probes the heart, weighs the soul and measures the human spirit across [centuries].” Now the story continues in Written in My Own Heart’s Blood. 1778: France declares war on Great Britain, the British army leaves Philadelphia, and George Washington’s troops leave Valley Forge in pursuit. At this moment, Jamie Fraser returns from a presumed watery grave to discover that his best friend has married his wife, his illegitimate son has discovered (to his horror) who his father really is, and his beloved nephew, Ian, wants to marry a Quaker. Meanwhile, Jamie’s wife, Claire, and his sister, Jenny, are busy picking up the pieces. The Frasers can only be thankful that their daughter Brianna and her family are safe in twentieth-century Scotland. Or not. In fact, Brianna is searching for her own son, who was kidnapped by a man determined to learn her family’s secrets. Her husband, Roger, has ventured into the past in search of the missing boy . . . never suspecting that the object of his quest has not left the present. Now, with Roger out of the way, the kidnapper can focus on his true target: Brianna herself. Written in My Own Heart’s Blood is the brilliant next chapter in a masterpiece of the imagination unlike any other.

Book excerpt: From six beloved writers-Jennifer Ashley, Anna Bradley, Grace Burrowes, Kerrigan Byrne, Christi Caldwell and Tanya Anne Crosby-come six Christmas stories that will warm up your holiday, and put a twinkle in your eyes. A First-Footer for Lady Jane by Jennifer Ashley When Grandfather MacDonald predicts Lady Jane will marry this year's First-Footer-the first guest into the house on Hogmanay-she dismisses the notion. Her childhood sweetheart is fighting on the Peninsula, and she can't imagine marrying anyone but the staid Major Barnett. But when the clock strikes midnight, and Hogmanay begins, a knock at the front door changes Jane's life forever. Then in a Twinkling by Anna Bradley An escapade, a caper, an outrageous Christmas courtship...Oliver Angel will do whatever it takes to win the heart of his chosen lady. The first time he met Dinah Bishop she turned her pistol on him, but instead of his head, Dinah's ball struck the softest part of his heart. Oliver is determined to make Dinah his own, but there's one small problem... Dinah Bishop doesn't believe in love. The Marquess of Mistletoe by Grace Burrowes He left her standing in the cold... She sent him off to war. Leo Drake was all set to share his future with the lady of his dreams, when he was told Marielle had changed her mind. Bewildered and heartbroken, he joined the army and sailed for Spain. It's ten years later, and fate has thrown Leo and Marielle together on Christmas night. Will they say farewell for all time, or let the magic of the holidays rejoin their hearts? Making Merry by Kerrigan Byrne Sprightly Victorian spinster, Vanessa Latimer, is stranded for the holidays in the Scottish Highlands by a relentless winter blizzard. She takes refuge at a centuries-old inn where the only available room is haunted by the ghost of a warrior who fell at Culloden Moor. One who refuses to give up his side of the bed. A Marquess for Christmas by Christi Caldwell Lady Patrina Tidemore gave up on the ridiculous notion of true love after having her heart shattered and her trust destroyed by a black-hearted cad. Used as a pawn in a game of revenge against her brother, Patrina returns to London from a failed elopement with a tattered reputation. The last thing she's interested in is falling in love. But it is Christmas, and after a chance encounter with a vexing, but entrancing widower in Hyde Park, Patrina begins to think anything is possible. The Art of Kissing Beneath the Mistletoe by Tanya Anne Crosby Alexandra Grace Huntington once believed in fairy tales. She oohed and ahed over gowns from Courtauld's, never wore black lest in mourning, always minded her social graces, and never, ever indulged her inner bluestocking. Now her world has come crashing down and she's alone for the holidays-no siblings, no parents, no friends, and not one shred of pride remaining. When she's unexpectedly invited to celebrate one last holiday with her dearest friend, she can't accept quickly enough... only how did one comport oneself after one's father has attempted to ruin the one man she's loved all her life? This is a limited-time, special box set. All these novellas were previously published, but never together in a box set. Enjoy!
Download or read book The Last Wolf written by Jim Crumley and published by Birlinn. This book was released on 2012-12-10 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1743, according to legend, the last wolf in Scotland was killed by a huntsman near Inverness. At the time the extinction of wolves in Scotland was celebrated. But since then deer have multiplied in the Highlands, destroying the vegetation on which an array of wildlife depends and creating a barren, treeless landscape. Gradually it has become clear that the entire eco-system has been thrown out of balance by the elimination of a top predator. Now there are calls for a limited reintroduction of wolves into Scotland as a way of healing the damaged land. The wolf has been the victim of black propaganda since ancient times. By tellers of folk tales and historians alike it has been described as a slayer of babies, a robber of graves, a devourer of battlefield dead. In this passionate polemic, Jim Crumley argues that these stories are pure fiction, a distortion of reality which prevents people from thinking rationally about the huge benefits the presence of wolves could bring to Scotland. Now is the time for myths to be dispelled, and for the wolf to return to its old home in the highlands.
