Charming the Chieftain by Deanie Roman
Accused of witchery, Lady Elisande Cadby must submit to the Rite of Purification before wedding Baron Warford the Brutal. On the eve of her union, she flees Cadby Hall armed with an arsenal of Pagan-rooted curatives and her ever-present comfort-stone. With grudging assistance from a formidable chieftain who unsettles her senses, she embarks on a harrowing escape across the Borders in search of sanctuary.
Chieftain Aeden Maxwell would rather bed down with the hounds than concede he is enchanted by Elisande’s caramel-colored locks, and feisty manner. After all, she is intended for his volatile older brother. Besides, Elisande’s unusual ideas and strange convictions are dangerous and he doesn’t need more trouble.
Once ensconced at Caeverlark Castle, Elisande is confronted by Aeden’s mistress, who spies on Elisande during a spirit cleansing ritual. Within days word of Elisande’s odd practices and peculiar beliefs cause a divide in the clan. Once more, accusations of witchery abound. However, Elisande has other worries to consider. With Aeden’s brother trying to force himself on her, a brutal killer hiding in plain sight intent upon Aeden’s death, and a disturbing truth behind a long-buried secret about to come to light, Elisande must dispel rumors and gain the clan’s trust before jealousy and betrayal destroy the man she loves.

Daman’s
Angel by Charmaine Ross
Daman Quade wants to die, but when he does an angel rescues
him – an angel who doesn’t remember who she is or what she was doing in that
dark alley. All Daman knows is that he should be dead and the angel shouldn’t
be alive on earth.
Daman wants to help the angel return to her place in the
otherworlds and enlists the help of Father Joseph. They discover that Angel has
to returned by a flesh and blood sacrifice in three days or she is doomed to
walk the earth until the end of time, neither angel nor human. Daman is torn,
knowing he must be the sacrifice to save Angel and wanting to live and love
again in the one chance of life Angel has given him.
Angel has a very big secret. She has fallen in love with
Daman. Now that she is flesh and blood, her physical attraction is
all-consuming. She doesn’t want to go back. She wants to become human, to live
and love as a mortal woman. And she wants Daman at her side until death do them
part. But that might be earlier than she thinks.
Daman must survive otherworldly demons and death itself to
claw his way back to a life where they both can be together. But after all that
– will Angel’s secret prove too much to overcome?

Author Bio: I
live in Upwey, a very leafy suburb of outer Melbourne. I can hear most
Melbournians say, where? Think Puffing Billy, the hills and inexcusably steep
driveways and you’re there. We have a house with room for the kids to play in
the backyard, the cat to sleep wherever, and the husband to have his back shed
(well, actually the shed is more like the storeroom, but let’s not go there.)
I love romance because it adds so much to the story. If I
read a story and there’s no romance, there isn’t much to keep me in the story.
Everyone needs a little romance to take them away. Learn more about me at www.charmaineross.com

Her New Worst Enemy by Christy McKellen
Six
months ago Ellie Holdsworthy’s life was all planned out – kids, wedding, happy
ever after – until her boyfriend dumped her for another woman. When her best
friend Penny, an heiress to a small fortune, looks set to run off with a
gold-digger, Ellie has to save her from certain doom – and fast. Unfortunately,
the only person who can help is the one person she’d rather not ask....
Little does Ellie know, persuading
her brother’s best friend – commitment phobic, playboy businessman, Gideon
DeLancy – to hold an intervention at his beautiful Georgian manor would be the
easy part. Keeping her hands off him is a whole other matter.
Gideon
doesn’t intend to fall for his friend’s snarky sister, and he sure as hell
doesn’t expect their weekend to develop into a full-on sex-fest. When passion
takes a strangle-hold, their differences don’t seem to matter. After all, a
torrid weekend affair should be the easiest thing in the world to walk away
from, so why are they finding it so difficult...?

Romancing the Seas by Cait O’Sullivan
Sous-chef Pippa Renshaw thinks a change of scene will mend her bruised
heart, so she swaps her job in a prestigious London restaurant to head-chef on
a cruise ship sailing around New Zealand. A great plan until she meets her new
CEO, the delectable Jonathon Eagleton, and discovers she has to share a suite
with him.
Even though sparks fly whenever they are together, Jonathon steadfastly
keeps her at arm’s length, which suits Pippa just fine because she’s still
getting over the betrayal of the last time she had a relationship with the
boss.
The situation is starting to feel like solitary confinement until a
thunderstorm traps them in a tramper’s hut while hiking. Suddenly a different
kind of storm unleashes inside the hut.
But will they be able to go back to their previous status now the line
has been crossed?

Worth the Wait by Synithia Williams, author of You Can’t Plan Love
When a virgin frustrated by her nonexistent dating life asks
a playboy for a one-night stand, can they really ignore their attraction after
the affair?
After Tasha Smith is dumped yet again because of her
virginity, she decides it’s time to stop saving herself for marriage and start
dating like women in the twenty-first century. She sets out to find a man rumored
to be good enough in bed to relieve her of the nuisance, but discreet enough to
keep her request a secret.
Jared Patterson seems like the perfect candidate. Yet after
one searing kiss, she wonders if she’ll escape a night with him unscathed.
Jared’s job as a successful fitness instructor and entrepreneur has helped him
keep a string of meaningless relationships from the east to the west coast.
After learning the hard way that women can’t be trusted, he has no qualms going
from one sex-only relationship to the next. Although Tasha is one of the few
types of women he avoids—a good girl—the man in him can’t turn down her
tempting offer.
What starts out as a onetime thing quickly turns into an
affair neither wants to stop. But when an unexpected situation drastically
alters their relationship, it leaves them both asking if it was Worth the Wait.
