      Trapped. She was well and truly trapped.

      Panting with exertion, Cat stared up at the face a scant inch from hers. ’Twas too dark to see, but she could feel their hearts beating in wild counterpoint to each other…and something more alarming. His manhood swelling against her thigh. “Nay,” she cried, renewing her struggles.

      

      “Be still.” He let her take more of his weight, making her aware of the power he leashed. “Be still or you’ll goad me into doing that which you fear.”

      

      Cat ceased fighting, but didn’t relax, couldn’t. “So…‘tis not just my father’s ruin you want,” she managed to say.

      

      “I’d be a fool and a liar if I denied you stir me. I’ve been long without a woman and you’re uncommon fair. But your honor…such as it is…is safe with me. I’d sooner bed a pox-ridden whore as Ruarke Sommerville’s get!”

      Dear Reader,

      

      With the first three books in her series featuring the Sommerville brothers, Suzanne Barclay earned a nomination for Best Medieval Historical Romance from Romantic Times, a Bookrack award for Series Romance, a 5* rating from Affaire de Coeur and a 5* rating from Heartland Critiques. This month, we are very pleased to be able to bring you the next book in the series, Knight’s Ransom, the story of a French knight who captures the daughter of his enemy to avenge the murder of his family. Don’t miss this exciting return to the ongoing drama of the Sommervilles and the de Laurens.

      In The Wedding Bargain, Emily French tells the emotional tale of a widow, Charity Frey, who defies her Puritan community and marries Rafe Trehearne, a bondsman who has been wrongly accused of treason.

      Also this month, RITA Award finalist Laurel Ames is back with Tempted, her new novel that Affaire de Coeur calls an “exciting, unusual, and delightfully quirky Regency.” And Ana Seymour’s sixth title for Harlequin Historicals, Gabriel’s Lady, is the first of two connected СКАЧАТЬ
