Bortom all räddning
av Anne O'Brien
Ökänd rumlare eller hedersman?

Alexander Ellerdine manar sin häst genom vågorna på stranden i Sussex för att hinna undsätta den unga ladyn som har fångats av tidvattnet. Hennes vackra ansikte och djärva sinne hänför honom från första stund - men som smugglare med skamfilat rykte har Zan ingenting att erbjuda en kvinna som hon.

Marie-Claude har bestämt sig för att reda ut mysteriet med sin grubblande räddare. Hans passionerade kyssar är lika farliga som hans rykte. Men hederligheten i hans ögon vittnar om att han är en gentleman ... medan hemligheterna och ryktena talar för att han är en beryktad rumlare bortom all räddning ...

En komprometterad lady
av Anne O'Brien
Han mindes glittrande gråa ögon ...
och en märkligt mjuk smekning ...

Trots att han varit medvetslös större delen av natten anklagas Lucius för att ha komprometterat en lady. Visserligen en inte så elegant lady, klädd som hon är i sjömanskläder, men utan tvekan är hans räddare en attraktiv kvinna - och nu måste han gifta sig med denna miss Harriette Lydyard.

Greven av Venmore är mer än lovligt attraktiv, och Harriette inser att hon borde avfärda frieriet. Men hennes minst sagt olagliga smuggelaffärer står på spel och hon riskerar vittgående konsekvenser om ryktet sprids att någon vanärat henne. Enda utvägen är att sluta avtal med den världsvane, djävulskt farlige gentlemannen!

Voiko rakkaus kukoistaa kanuunan paukkeessa?
Nuori Honoria on jäänyt leskeksi kolkkoon linnaan Welshin suoseudulle. Keskellä sisällissotaa hän solmii järkiavioliiton linnan uuden lordin kanssa.

Mutta voiko lordi Mansell täysin luottaa vaimoonsa, joka varsin itsenäisen oloisesti hoitaa tilusten asioita, ja onko se aina vain sattumaa ja väärinkäsitystä kun he kohtaavat ladyn osoittaessa lordia aseella?

Seurapiirejä ja kosintoja
av Anne O'Brien, Juliet Landon
Richmondin seurapiireissä

Hän on onnistunut purkamaan kaksi epätoivottua kihlausta, mutta nyt vapautta rakastava Caterina Chester ymmärtää ettei hän enää kauan pysty karttelemaan avioliittoa. Mutta alistuisiko hän kauppatavaraksi pelastaakseen perheensä veloista? Myytäväksi seurapiirien pahamaineisimmalle elostelijalle? Pelkkä ajatus saa hänet suunniltaan.

Sir Chase Bostoniin liittyy moitteettoman käytöksen ja viehätysvoiman ohella kuitenkin kiistämättömän kiehtova kesyttömämpi puoli, joka sekä ärsyttää että houkuttelee Cateriinaa. Hän on pitänyt kiihkeän luonteensa visusti kurissa. Nyt alkaa vaikuttaa siltä kuin hänen mahdollisimman sopimaton aviomiehensä olisi kenties ainoa, joka pystyy antamaan hänelle sen, mistä hän on vain salaa unelmoinut...
