14th-century London

HISTORICAL ROMANCE


By Possession
(The first book in the 14th-century London series)




A Common Lady

For years she had thought he was dead. Yet when Addis de Valence strode into Moira Falkner's cottage, there was no mistaking the sharp planes of his face, and the scar she herself had helped to heal. The young squire who had once been her hero was now her lord, a hardened man who returned to claim the son she had raised as her own. But Moira couldn't deny that Addis roused a passion she never thought to feel-and a perilous hope for a future that could never be....

An Uncommon Love

Addis returned from the Crusades to find his lands usurped by his stepbrother, and his country on the brink of rebellion. Determined to reclaim his birthright, Addis could not afford to be distracted by a woman - even one as tempting as Moira. Yet the only living part of his contented past lay in Moira — and his desire for her was more dangerous than his deadly battles with the king's men. By law, Moira belonged to him...but possessing her heart might be far more difficult.


By Design
(The second book in the 14th-century London series)



Bound by honor...

The moment Rhys saw the stunning young woman selling her exquisitely crafted pottery in the marketplace, he was captivated. But the wealthy freemason would never have guessed that just a few days later, a misunderstanding would land Joan in the town stocks and he would become her unlikely savior. After the grueling ordeal, Rhys tenderly cares for Joan's bruised body — and her bruised pride. Yet he longs to do much more ... to satisfy the fire that sparks between the pair the moment they are alone.

Rhys could not have known that Joan once enjoyed a more privileged life. She'd had no choice but to become an indentured servant, but she is determined to avenge the crimes that ruined her family and destroyed her world. When Rhys meets with her employer to buy pottery — and buys her instead — Joan is furious. She vows to resist falling under the spell of the handsome, imposing Rhys. But she finds that her resolve quickly softens when tempted by Rhys's powerful charms — and she can only hope to find a way to avoid surrendering to her potent desire....


Stealing Heaven
(The third book in the 14th-century London series)



Marcus of Anglesmore was not at all happy about being betrothed by the king to a woman he'd never laid eyes on. So when the brooding English knight accidentally came across her in a moonlit garden, he was both surprised — and delighted. Intelligent, charming, and beautiful, she was the most captivating woman he'd ever met. But the magic of that enchanted moment is soon shattered by cold reality: Nesta is not the woman he is to marry, but her sister. Of all the women Marcus might desire, none could be more dangerous than the wild and tantalizing Welsh witch with secret ties to both rebellion and king. For Nesta, no one could jeopardize her plans more than a man who would know the secrets of both her heart...and her body. Yet the course of their lives — and the destinies of their two nations — will be forever altered as they defy everything to surrender to the most daring seduction of all....


By Arrangement
(The fourth book in the 14th-century London series)



The lady and the commoner...

Lady Christiana Fitzwaryn was not opposed to marriage. But she demanded to be married on her own terms, not as punishment for a romantic indiscretion, and especially not to a common merchant. Yet she was in for a shock when she met David de Abyndon. For she was confronted by no ordinary merchant but a man of extraordinary poise and virility. He was unaffected by their difference in social status. And even less affected by her well-thought-out arguments against their upcoming betrothal. Instead, it was Christiana who felt uneasy in the presence of this naturally lordly man behind whose cool blue eyes she sensed the most uncompromising of passions.

David de Abyndon understood Christiana's dilemma, for he too harbored a secret pain. How could he tell her that there was more to this arrangement than met the eye? How could he tell her about his deal with the king — a deal that meant he had all but bought Christiana sight unseen? What's more, now that he had seen this beautiful, spirited woman, how could he convince her that the love she sought was not in the callow knight she had romanticized but in the flesh-and-blood arms of the man who may have bought her body - but in the bargain lost both his heart and soul?

The Protector
(The fifth book in the 14th-century London series)



Anna de Leon is like no other woman Morvan Fitzwaryn has ever met. She dresses like a man and fights alongside her troops to defend her people. Morvan is a landless knight, struggling to retain his honor as he leads a mercenary company through the political and social quagmire created in Brittany in the middle of the 14th century by a cruel combination of plague and war. From the first, the handsome English knight finds Anna a double temptation. He longs to win this fascinating woman's love — and he knows that if he had her castle as a secure base, he could reclaim his father's lost estate. At first Anna is determined to make certain Morvan resists both temptations. She dreams of a time when she can return to the peace of the convent, because she knows that can only happen when she's certain that all those under her protection are safe. She has no wish to lose her freedom, or her land, to any husband...until Morvan convinces her to accept his protection against a fearsome threat outside her stronghold's walls.


Lord of a Thousand Nights
(The sixth book in the 14th-century London series)



No woman alive could resist his tantalizing seduction....

Called the Lord of a Thousand Nights, Ian of Guilford was famed as much for his feats in the bedroom as on the battlefield. But Lady Reyna Graham had no idea of this when, disguised as a courtesan, she passed behind enemy lines with a desperate plan to save her people.

Now, sitting in the tent of the dizzyingly handsome warrior who commanded the army outside her gates, the beautiful widow suddenly realized that she had underestimated her foe. For she found herself in the company of a man whose charms were said to be impossible to resist...and who would show no mercy in laying siege to her heart — and body — with every sensual weapon in his arsenal.

For the sake of her people, she must not give in ... and she must somehow turn this legendary lover who never lost his heart into a man who would exchange all his thousand nights for one with her....

Sweet Magnolias series by Sherryl Woods

CONTEMPORARY ROMANCE

Stealing Home
(The first book in the Sweet Magnolias series)



There's nothing like a little serenity . . .

Maddie Townsend might live in a town called Serenity, but there's been nothing calm or peaceful about her life since her marriage broke up. This stay-at-home mom has no job skills, an out-of-control sixteen-year-old son, a talkative fourteen-year-old who's suddenly gone silent, a six-year-old daughter whose heart is broken, an ex-husband whose younger girlfriend is expecting their baby and two best friends who think she's somehow qualified to help them open a fitness spa for women.

But if Maddie is a tad on edge with all that on her plate, it's nothing compared to the chaos that ensues when she discovers that her son's baseball coach has feelings for her and the whole town disapproves. Maddie's faced a lot of challenges lately with strength and resolve, but Cal Maddox may turn out to be more than she can handle.

Then again, he could just be the one man in all of South Carolina who can help her find serenity.




A Slice Of Heaven
(The second book in the Sweet Magnolias series)



Dana Sue might run the best little restaurant in Serenity, but when you're feeding a small town of neighbors, busybodies and best friends, things can get a bit hot in the kitchen. Never mind that she's putting on too many pounds (an occupational hazard for a chef) - she's worried about her too-skinny teenage daughter, Annie, who has been slowly starving herself since the loud, suitcase-tossing, name-calling fit on her front lawn that left Dana Sue minus one cheating husband.

But sometimes life picks strange ways to mend fences. When Annie lands in the hospital, Dana Sue reaches out to the man she loves to hate: Ron, the husband who took her heart when she tossed him out. Ron is still Annie's white knight, even if h's decidedly more tarnished in Dana Sue's eyes. But he still looks good enough to eat, and maybe, just maybe, to forgive. Once, Ron made the mistake of letting go without a proper fight. But now Dana Sue is about to get another taste of sweet devotion from a man tired of feeling like a fool, hungry for that slice of heaven he found with her.




Feels Like Family
(The third book in the Sweet Magnolias series)



Helen Decatur spent a lifetime setting goals-getting through college and law school, opening her own practice, becoming financially secure and establishing herself as one of the most highly respected matrimonial attorneys in the state of South Carolina. Achieving those goals was a breeze compared to the one she's faced with now.

The most driven-and cynical-of the Sweet Magnolias, Helen is forty-two, single and suddenly ready for the family she's put on the back burner for all these years. Unfortunately, having a child at her age comes with lots of complications, not the least of which is the absence of a serious relationship in her life.

But Helen's not the type of woman to wait around for fate to step in. Taking charge of her own destiny puts her at odds with her two best friends, sets sparks flying with a man who doesn't want a family, and leads her straight into the most unexpected complication of all...love.

Her Reason to Stay, by Anna Adams

Authored by Anna Adams, "Her Reason to Stay" is a short romance book surrounding one man and a set of twins. Based in the fictional town of Honesty, Virginia, Daphne Soder arrives to meet her sister for the first, whom she was separated from at birth. However, Raina Abernathy didn't know she was adopted much less has a twin sister. Raina believes that Daphne is only gold digging, that is until she lays eyes on Daphne and knows it must be true. Daphne Soder didn't have the easy life. She had been bouncing around from foster home to the streets, causing trouble whenever trouble could be found. She finally straightened out her life, got a college degree, and was moving her life along until an incident during her employment turned her to the bottle. She tried to drown the memory and would finally work on getting sober but not until after a car accident and a DUI. Finding her twin sister and a new future was what she yearned for, a family.

Raina Abernathy was raised in Honesty, Virginia by doting parents, she was raised among the aristocratic society. After her mother's death, she inherited the Abernathy pharmaceutical fortune and it appeared odd that Daphne would present herself just after she became sole heir of that fortune. She kept up her guard that Daphne was after more than just family but she soon learned that was a mistake. She may not know Daphne but she was the only family she had left.
Patrick Gannon was the handsome attorney that swore to Raina's mother that he would look after her daughter. But seeing Daphne for the first time had him confused, he wanted the young woman with Raina's face but a personality all her own. His first priority was protecting his son who almost died due to his ex-wife's prescription drug addiction. The skeletons in Daphne's closet would keep him from taking a leap of faith towards the woman he so desperately needed.

Taking a Chance
(A book in the Under One Roof series)
(2003)
A novel by
Janice Kay Johnson

"Taking chances can turn out to be good!"

Jo Dubray has a major phobia about marriage and children; she has made no plans concerning either. That doesn't mean that she can't have a little fun with her roommate Kathleen's brother Ryan.

Jo feels that Ryan is a safe relationship. He is recently and divorced and has two children that live in another state. She just knows that Ryan will not want to reconsider getting remarried so soon, but Ryan surprises her and does want to remarry someday and hopefully that special someone will be Jo.

TAKING A CHANCE was a wonderful family story; it not only touches on relationships with children, but relationships concerning adults. As I read I saw Jo grow as a person, she thought due some to misconceptions about her own childhood that she would not make a good wife or mother. In fact Jo was wonderful with Emma and Ginny the two children of her roommates Kathleen and Helen, as well as Ryan's children Melissa and Tyler. Over time she begins to see it as well and this opens up many doors in her relationship with Ryan. Ryan was a wonderful father and I did feel that it was unfair that he was limited visitations with his kids; he also helped Jo overcome her inadequacies showing her that having a family can be just as adventurous as taking a spontaneous vacation or skydiving. I loved this book and it is a definite keeper. I can't wait to read the follow-up THE PERFECT MOM.
