Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can a man from the stables become the man of her dreams? Life is on track for Philip Jenkins. Through hard work and a fair amount of luck, he owns an estate, and his horses are renowned throughout Somerset. But he wants them to be coveted throughout England and that requires the endorsement of a well-respected duke. Philip will not allow anything to distract him. That is until he meets a governess attending his neighbor's house party. His attraction to her is strong and immediate, but she cannot seem to see him as anything more than a groom. As the daughter of a viscount, Elizabeth Carter never thought she would be a spinster, or have to seek employment as a governess. When she attends a house party with the children of her employer, she is immediately drawn to the owner of the neighboring estate. But the man is nothing like what she dreamed. He seems more at home in the stables than in the parlor. When a duke makes Elizabeth an offer, she knows she must seize the opportunity with both hands. But accepting the offer does not stop her from thinking of Mr. Jenkins. As the house party draws to a close, both Philip and Elizabeth must decide what is more important-the security they always dreamed of or the love they just discovered.

Book excerpt: He's determined to finish the job, even if she distracts him... With his deceased father's woodworking business now failing, Edward Steele will do anything to see its return to prosperity, even if that means accepting work from the Coventry family far outside of Bath. His two goals? Finishing this new task swiftly and making as few acquaintances as possible. But such things are easier said than done, especially when the Coventry's daughter finds it necessary to spy on him at every turn. Marianne Coventry doesn't mean to stare, but such a task is difficult when a man as handsome as Mr. Steele works right before her eyes. Besides, at twenty years old and not yet out in Society-due to an unmarried elder sister and a strict, rule-abiding father-she will take any distraction she can get. Perhaps turning to a dashing woodworker for entertainment isn't a wise decision, but does she really have any other choice? As Edward becomes aware of Marianne's sheltered life, an unexpected friendship sprouts between them-a friendship her family cannot discover, especially when Marianne begins to realize she's been living half a life. Still, Edward's heart remains cautious, for becoming distracted and losing his family's business would mean forfeiting his livelihood and everything his father worked so hard to achieve. Despite the forces working against them, only the two of them can decide what they want most in life-and if they're willing to risk everything for love.

Rebecca Turner traveled to Bath on the faint hope of finding a cure for her ailing mother-but with very little money to pay for it. Dr. Jared Cooper was unsure he could ever love again until he laid eyes on Rebecca's cousin-the incomparable Miss Alicia. He's smitten, but she's in mourning and thus unavailable for a time. Fortunately, her cousin Rebecca can help. Finding themselves each in need of something that the other person can procure, Rebecca and Jared strike a bargain: he agrees to tend to her ailing mother at no charge on the condition that Rebecca discreetly passes his letters to her mourning cousin. She can ill afford to lose Dr. Cooper's help, so when Alicia refuses to write back to the doctor, Rebecca takes matters into her own hands. But what can Rebecca do when she finds herself falling in love with the man behind the letters, and he doesn't know it's her?

Now, as her third novel opens, the year is 1818 and Miss Beatrice Forsythe is determined to marry well. After all, her sister, Ariana, married The Paragon, Mr. Phillip Mornay, five years earlier--which all but guarantees that she, Beatrice, can also make a famous match to a wealthy man. But her sister and husband have disappeared from high society as they raise a family at their country estate. Can Beatrice persuade them to chaperone her in London? And what about Beatrice's business with the curate, Mr. O’Brien, whom she rashly promised to marry years earlier. At seventeen now, she has no wish to marry a mere clergyman—despite his agreeable countenance and gentle, understanding ways. When Mr. Tristan Barton becomes the tenant of the Manor House, Beatrice's hopes seem to have found their object. But when Ariana falls gravely ill, secrets come to light, motives are revealed, and the pretenses that are easy to keep up in the darkness begin to crumble. Hearts are bared, truths uncovered, and when all is said and done, a country house courtship like no other has occurred! As always, Linore Burkard delivers “spirited romance for the Jane Austen soul.”

When Sophia's parents give her no choice but to travel across England to be matched with a mysterious young bachelor, Mr. Hill, she has no interest, especially since there are several other ladies vying for him. Who better to send in her place than Tillie? What gentleman would notice a maid, even one disguised as a lady?

Disguised as her mistress, Tillie takes a coach across the country to a new place, one both unfamiliar and frightening. With so much at stake, she does all she can to stay quiet and invisible.

A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single setting, The Sense of an Ending has the psychological and emotional depth and sophistication of Henry James at his best, and is a stunning achievement in Julian Barnes's oeuvre. Tony Webster thought he left his past behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own. But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.

Book excerpt: Dear Reader: I am afraid I am about to do something exceedingly shocking. My adventure began when I came to the Earl of Savile’s castle for the reading of George Devane’s will, of which the earl is the executor. I had every intention of refusing George’s blood money, but he foiled me by leaving it to my young son, Nicky. Because I am a young widow, this bequest has subjected me to a great deal of unpleasant gossip. Now I find that I am in the power of the most exciting man I have ever met, a man whose very presence makes me weak, a man who could very well be my ruination. Remember me in your prayers, as I shall need them. (Mrs.) Gail Saunders

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History tells us that the intelligent, wealthy, and powerful Margaret of York had everything any woman could want, except for love. The acclaimed author of A Rose for the Crown takes us between the lines of history and into her heart. It is 1461: Edward, son of Richard of York, ascends to the throne, and his willful sister, Margaret, immediately becomes a pawn in European politics as Edward negotiates her marriage. The young Margaret falls deeply in love with Anthony Woodville, the married brother of Edward's queen, Elizabeth. But Edward has arranged for his sister to wed Charles, son of the Duke of Burgundy, and soon Margaret is setting sail for her new life. Her official escort: Anthony Woodville. Margaret of York eventually commanded the respect and admiration of much of Europe, but it appears to history that she had no emotional intimate. Anne Easter Smith's rare gift for storytelling and her extensive research reveal the love that burned at the center of Margaret's life, adding a new dimension to the story of one of the fifteenth century's most powerful women.

Book excerpt: Georgette Heyer's Regency romance novels have charmed and delighted millions of readers. Her smart, independent heroines and dashing heroes brilliantly illuminate one of the most exciting and fascinating eras of English history, when drawing rooms sparkled with well-dressed nobility, and romantic intrigues ruled the day. The spirited and independent Miss Annis Wychwood is twenty-nine and well past the age for falling in love. But when Annis embroils herself in the affairs of a pretty runaway heiress, Miss Lucilla Carleton, she is destined to see a great deal of her fugitive's uncivil and high-handed guardian, Mr. Oliver Carleton. Befriending the wayward girl brings unexpected consequences, among them the conflicting emotions aroused by her guardian, who is quite the rudest man Annis has ever met... Praise for Georgette Heyer and Lady of Quality: "In this delectable Georgette Heyer novel, the lady of quality and her bit-of-a-rake swain are the ones on whom our eyes are fixed. They don't play us false. Miss Heyer is in top form...romantic, amusing, and full of tart-tongued comment on the mores of the time."—Publishers Weekly "A writer of great wit and style...I've read her books to ragged shreds."—Kate Fenton, Daily Telegraph "Set in Bath in the last years of the Regency, it has the authentic Heyer sparkle."—Woman's Journal

Book excerpt: The flames of desire fuel a torrid reunion as bestselling author Bronwen Evans returns with another captivating novel of the Disgraced Lords. See why Jen McLaughlin raves, “Bronwen’s historical romances always make the top of my reading list!” Lady Evangeline Stuart chose to wed a tyrant with a title, or so society believes. That was five years ago—five long years that she could have spent with her first and only love: Lord Hadley Fullerton, the second son of the Duke of Claymore. Now Evangeline is a widow, and her soul cries out for Hadley. But when they see each other at last, everything has changed. The passion in his eyes has been corrupted by betrayal. Somehow Evangeline must regain Hadley’s trust—without revealing the secret that would spoil the seduction. Hadley is determined not to be distracted by Evangeline. He and the other Libertine Scholars are in pursuit of an enemy who has been striking at them from the shadows, and Evangeline’s mere presence could be dangerous. But with one smile, one touch, one taste of Evangeline’s lips, Hadley’s resolve is overpowered by far more pleasant memories. As the two enter into a discreet affair, Hadley vows to give her his body, never his heart. That, she will have to earn.
