  A traditional Regency romance, drawing room rather than bedroom. 
  Lord Montague Marford is looking forward to a quiet life as clergyman of a rural parish where he can hope to do some good. But sometimes his compassionate nature gets him into trouble, and when a bedraggled young woman turns up on the doorstep to call in a long-forgotten debt, Monty’s sense of honour compels him to offer to marry her. But he soon begins to wonder if he’s made a huge mistake. 
  Miss Melissa Frost is very grateful, and thrilled to find herself surrounded by luxury. It’s just like a fairy tale, and although Monty is an unlikely prince, she’d love to be his princess and make him happy. But she daren’t tell him the truth — that she’s run away from home and her guardian wants her back. She has to keep Monty at arm’s length until she comes of age, or she could lose him altogether. 
  Book 4 of the 5-book Sons of the Marquess series, each a complete story with a HEA, but read all of them to find out all the secrets of the Marford family!

  During the furtrapping era of the early 1800's, Marie Dorion refuses to be left behind in St. Louis when her husband heads West. Faced with hostile landscapes, an untried expedition leader, and her volatile husband, Marie finds that the daring act she hoped would bring her family together may, in the end, tear them apart. History records that on the journey, Marie may have briefly met Sacajawea, the famous interpreter who accompanied Lewis and Clark. She too was married to a mixedblood man of French Canadian and Native American descent, and was raising a son in a white world. In this imaginative retelling the two women forge a friendship that will uphold Marie long after they part, even as she fights for her children's very survival. Her story reminds us that women are bound together in history, now and forever.

  Historical fact meets heart-stopping action in a World War II thriller full of “intrigue and fast paced action . . . sure to appeal to fans of wartime fiction” (Heritage and History).   In February 1945, the US Air Force launched the largest daytime bombing offensive against Berlin, dropping over 2,250 tons of bombs on the German capital. Germany’s state bank—the Reichsbank—received twenty-one direct hits, leaving the building badly damaged and the priceless contents of its vaults at risk.   It was just the chance SS accountant Maj. Friedrich Schonewille was waiting for . . .   Having never believed in the Fuhrer or the Reich, Schonewille is a man out for himself. Recruiting his own father, brother, and his secret Jewish wife, he concocts a plan to get rich as his homeland falls. First, they’ll have to get the goods. Then, they’ll have to stay ahead of the Nazis. Then, they’ll have to keep from getting captured by either the Allies or Russians.   And then all they have to do is not turn on each other . . .   In this breakneck, “visually evocative novel” Colin Roderick Fulton imagines a scenario that could have easily happened in the dying days of the war (The Historical Novels Review).
