Synopsis Stella of Akrotiri: Origins by : Linda Rae Sande
Immortality can be a lonely existence, especially when the world is about to implode. For over six hundred years, Darius of Agremon has fought wars on behalf of those who needed his skills in combat. As a lechagos on Strongili, he spends his days commanding the Minoan coastguardsmen against pirates and marauders. His nights are spent alone, for despite having had wives in the past, he has watched them all grow old and die, childless, as he continues to live. So when he senses immortality in an olive farmer’s young daughter, Darius bargains to take her to wife when she is old enough to marry. A foundling, Stella works in her adoptive father’s orchard above Akrotiri, climbing the ancient trees to prune and to harvest the strings of pearls from their branches. She fears invaders when she watches flaming arrows arc in the sky, a sign the island is under attack. She worries about how the ground quakes beneath her feet and steam erupts from cracks in the ground. She wonders at the odd tingling she experiences whenever Darius of Agremon is near, a sensation not unlike the one she feels when spending time in the oldest trees. Unaware of the arrangement her father has made with the lechagos, Stella thinks she has been sold into slavery when Darius comes for her. Her youth has been spent admiring the man who helped her father’s business thrive. Now she has only contempt for him and his hard-headed manner, despite the pleasures he incites whenever he claims her body. While the earth trembles and a volcano threatens to destroy the island of Strongili, these two will have to forge a relationship that will last far longer than a lifetime—one that must endure an eternity and the disaster that’s about to wipe out the only home Stella has ever known.

Synopsis The Abduction of an Earl by : Linda Rae Sande
A baron hell-bent on revenge. An innocent earl. A countess caught in the crossfire. While departing the first ball of the Season, dowager countess Persephone discovers there’s an intruder in her coach. She’s momentarily shocked, until she realizes she knows the man. They had briefly been lovers years ago. But how did he end up in her coach, apparently three sheets to the wind? Jack, Earl of Wilmington, is sure he was drugged during the ball, for what else could explain his splitting headache and loss of memory? But who put him in Lady Castlewait's coach? And why? Persephone’s driver Parker is just as bewildered, and he’s determined to discover what he can. While Penelope and Jack renew their acquaintance, Parker returns to the scene of an abduction gone awry. Can switched hats, misidentified crests on coaches, and reports of gossip relating to the notorious ‘Lord JW’ provide the clues he needs to sort whodunit? Jack’s fate depends on it in The Abduction of an Earl.

Synopsis The Rose of a Sultan's Son by : Linda Rae Sande
Two young men in search of wives. A list of eligible young ladies. A father intent on matchmaking. A daughter with no intention of marrying. What can go wrong? Inspired by his father’s marriage to a dowager duchess, Ertuğrul heads to London with his English friend David Bennett-Jones, heir to the Bostwick viscountcy. They plan to attend the Season’s entertainments, intent on finding brides. Heir to a sultanate, Ertuğrul hasn’t yet started his harem, but if he finds true love with a young lady, he may forgo concubines. Spending a Season in Mayfair with the Bennett-Joneses will surely prove as rewarding as his time was attending Cambridge University. That is, if he can convince a certain young miss that she’s the one for him. When her brother, David, returns from spending three years in the Ottoman Empire—with a handsome prince in tow—Adeline welcomes the opportunity to introduce them to her unmarried friends. She may not be interested in marriage for herself, but she’s determined to find a husband for Lady Rose, and who better than Ertuğrul? Even if she suffered a debilitating accident, Rose is a duke’s daughter—and there aren’t any unwed princesses for an intriguing sultan's son. While the three attend balls and soirées, each with their own agendas, they will soon discover that instead of searching for their perfect matches, their matches may find them—if they haven’t already. Imbued with wild passion, a dash of fun, and all the classic charm of 19th century British aristocracy, The Rose of a Sultan's Son is a gripping historical romance novel that is perfect for readers looking to get their emotional fix.

Synopsis The Love of a Rake by : Linda Rae Sande
Everyone has plans … until something—or someone—comes along to change them. At thirty-five, Randall, Marquess of Reading, decides it's time to trade in his life as the ‘Rake of Reading’ and take a wife. Trouble is, his reputation precedes him. When Constance meets him in the park, she's intrigued by the gentleman she thinks is a well-to-do cit with a fascination for horse racing. Determined to discover what’s become of her inheritance and then return to her home and horses to live as an independent woman, she’s not interested in being courted. Or is she? Eleanor Merriweather is in London for her come-out with a dream to marry her perfect knight. Having been duped by a brothel's madame upon her arrival, she finds herself completely and thoroughly ruined by Charles, Earl of Wakefield. Only twenty-five, he enjoys life far too much to consider marriage, but Eleanor might be the one to change his mind on the matter—except she’s in love with his brother! Since not everyone is who they seem to be, it may take a bit of horse sense for these four to get on the right track in The Love of a Rake.

A sensual tale of mutual shyness and masterful slyness When the painfully shy Baron David Engleston receives an invitation to join a friend for a few days of playing cards and dancing at the Soho Club, he accepts. Given the incessant rain falling on all of England, he may as well spend some time in the capital. He can feel glum there just as well as in Kent—at least until the moment a young lady in a yellow gown appears from the room adjacent to his and asks, "Are you my betrothed?" Miss Marian Copper has come to the Soho Club in the company of her uncle and guardian, the Earl of Penhurst, believing he has arranged a marriage on her behalf. So when she nearly collides with a handsome man at the club, she assumes he's the one, especially when he doesn't hesitate to reply, "Why, yes. Yes I am." Without so much as an introduction, these two embark on one of the shortest betrothals possible. Given the earl's ridiculous terms and conditions, can there be a happily ever after in their future? Well, this is the Soho Club.

Synopsis The Lady of a Sultan by : Linda Rae Sande
Captured by pirates. Sold to a sultan. This is not how Charlotte expected to spend her holiday. A dowager duchess recently out of mourning, Charlotte is on her way to a holiday in Greece when pirates overtake her ship and enslave her. When they attempt to sell her to a Turkish sultan, she's sure she can convince the ruler to let her go. She's a matron and mother to two grown sons—and he has a harem and nineteen children. Whatever could he want with her? Three nights, apparently. For two decades, Sultan Ziyaeddin I has ruled his dwindling empire from several palaces in Constantinople, but the one on the edge of the Aegean Sea holds his most precious memories—and a precocious daughter who is overeducated for most men. Determined to introduce reforms, Ziyaeddin is far more enlightened than the sultans who came before him. Enlightened and alone. Convincing others of his vision for the empire has been a challenge. Bored with his harem, he's intrigued by the English woman who is unceremoniously dumped at his feet by pirates. With her skills as a duchess and desire for a daughter, will she be the companion his daughter needs—and the answer to his loneliness?

Synopsis The Pride of a Gentleman by : Linda Rae Sande
First comes matchmaking, then comes marriage, and then comes a baby carriage... well, not quite. Life in 1802 London throbs with great expectations and unlimited potential. A house under renovation reveals its secrets, and newlyweds Gregory and Christiana Grandby embark on a wedding trip to Italy, determined to keep their secret. Thomas Wellingham's import business grows faster than he can manage with his brash and brave new wife Emma as head accountant. Thomas' best friend, Todd Vandermeer, accepts his offer of employment despite concerns about the viability of Wellingham Imports. His wife, Deborah, is expecting their first child, after all, and he needs the position. Now that he's completed his life's work renovating every townhouse his wife, Sophia, owns, James Simpson is ready for a new job—that of father. Having informed Sophia he would like an heir, he's surprised to discover plans for a family aren't so far-fetched. But can she abide a late-in-life pregnancy and the possibility of heartbreak should it all go wrong? Can best friends and family remain so when life doesn't quite get it right? Are romance and marriage compatible, reconcilable? Perhaps, but only if they can overcome The Pride of a Gentleman.
