Book Of The Day - Gray Hawk's Lady by Karen Kay

 

Different worlds, one heart.
Blackfoot Warriors, Book 1

When Lady Genevieve Rohan joins her father in the farthest reaches of the American West, she expects to bring a bit of genteel English charm to his dry, academic existence. Instead, she finds her father desperately ill, and it’s up to her to finish his study of the Indian and publish his work—or face the wrath of his creditors.

Her troubles mount when the men hired to capture a member of the Blackfoot tribe don’t bring her a docile maid to study. They present her with a magnificent warrior—proud, outrageously handsome and simmering with fury at the loss of his freedom.

The white woman is beautiful beyond compare, but Gray Hawk can’t think past his plan to exact revenge against this meddling foreigner. It’s ridiculously easy to escape, then turn the tables and take her captive. When anger turns to passion, then to love, he embarks on a new quest. To claim the stubborn, red-headed vixen as his own.

Yet as their hearts strain toward each other, pride conspires to pull them apart…unless they can each find a way for their hearts to become one.

Warning: Sensuous romance that contains a raging, simmering love, consumed by its fire and destined to explode at any moment.

This book is the 25th Year Edition

But she is willing to embrace this illusive emotion one more time. With renewed hope, she is ready to take the vow till death do us part.

So it was when Ruby was involved in a horrific incident with life changing implications. Carl’s faith would be tested beyond what he believed he could bear. He prayed for a miracle and received it. But sometimes the answer we get doesn’t fully address the problem we have. Does Carl have a right to ask for a second miracle, restoration? While holding on to the slim cord of hope, can Carl envision there will ever be another season on the horizon?

The Underside of Hope centers around an unplanned journey that will test Carl and Ruby’s trust, faith and destiny. For through it all, they learn the lessons of unconditional love.

Book Picks Of The Week - June 7th

 

Ruby’s Season by Yvonne Hooks 

 

Ruby Ellis’ new season began when her husband ran off with a younger woman and she was forced to move from her beloved suburban home to a rental in an older neighborhood. With three girls to raise alone, another man in her life was a moot point. Love hurt, it was fickle, it was betrayal; all the things Ruby could do without.

 

Carl Henderson’s wife died five years ago but he never moved on. Trying to raise a son, support his mother and the demands of his high-powered job consumed all his attention. Then one day by he passed a house where a beautiful woman and her daughters were working in the yard and everything changed. Carl was captivated by this mysterious woman who preferred her privacy to hide behind, keeping the world at bay. He secretly lowered the payments on a rental house he owned so she could afford to move there.

 

Through Carl’s charm and big heart Ruby realized she was falling for this handsome businessman. Just as she cautiously opened her heart a tiny crack, she discovered he was keeping a secret from her that would turn her guarded world upside down.

 

Can Ruby see beyond the treachery of her first husband to trust Carl enough with his plans for them? Will he be able to create the magic in making this her best season yet? Ruby’s season will take you on a journey of love lost, love found and the power of love.

Book Of The Day - Iron Wolf's Bride by Karen Kay

 

 

Iron Wolf's Bride

I will return to you, my love…

Jane Glenforest's father believed she was too young to marry, so he’d stolen her and her newborn son away from the handsome Assiniboine Indian she’d wed and taken her to Surrey, England. In spite of divorce papers and rumors he’s wed another, Jane’s never forgotten the man who’d stolen her heart and given her son legitimacy. When Buffalo Bill's Wild West show comes to England—bringing her ex-husband with it—Jane’s curious to see her lost love, in spite of her new fiancé. 

Although Iron Wolf's purpose in working for Bill Cody's Wild West show is to fulfill his father's vision to find and stop a deceiver, he fell in love with and married Jane Glenforest. But, no sooner had Jane given birth than her father stole her away. Now, a few years later, Iron Wolf is arriving in England with the hope of rekindling the love he once shared with Jane. However, instead of love, he finds his wife loathes him, believing he has married another. And, when he discovers she is engaged to another man, he declares war on both her and the fiancé. 

But when their son is kidnapped, Jane and Iron Wolf must work together to rescue him. And, as danger escalates, they discover trusting each other might be the only way to save their son. Will Jane and Iron Wolf learn to forgive one another, to reignite the embers of a passion that never died, or will the lies of a deceiver destroy their love forever?

Warning: Rediscovered love might cause sleepless nights spent in the arms of one's true love.

Have You Read - Love can Come Softly by W Parks Brigham

 

 

 

Renae Armstrong and Stanley Malone are two mature adults who are living life to its fullest and quite satisfied with how they are doing so.

Nevertheless, family and friends feel their lives are too predictable and complacent. And what’s wrong with that? Family and friends also feel a special love would add that extra element to make life that much more rewarding and fulfilling. Okay, that’s a great idea, whenever that special person comes along. Until then, they are very satisfied and consider themselves fortunate and blessed for so many wonderful reasons. For instance, health and strength, job, security, and most importantly, they have experienced enough of life’s pain and heartaches to say, ‘I’m good’.

As far as Renae Armstrong and Stanley Malone are concerned, life is great until a horrific tragedy brings unforeseen life changes for them both.

Book Of The Day - Lakota Princess by Karen Kay

 

 

 

 A love that defies the ocean. A secret deeper than blood.

Lakota Princess, Book 3

Driven from her home in England by hostile political forces, Estrela was little more than a girl when she came to be raised by a far western Lakota tribe. On the wide, sweeping plains she grew tall and strong, and won the love of a handsome warrior.

But on the eve of their marriage, she is torn away from her native family, torn from the man she loves, and forced to return to a place that feels more like a foreign country than her home. There she merely exists, haunted by her love’s sweet kisses and heated embrace, yearning for his unforgettable touch.

Black Bear has braved the ocean to find the woman whose beauty has captured his soul. But no sooner has he arrived in England than he is called upon to save her life. Who in their right mind would want to murder such a gentle spirit?

As Black Bear comes between her and death time after time, Estrela wishes they could both just disappear back to the plains, and bury the secret she has long hidden –- even from him. A secret from which only their love, truer than blood, can save them.

This is the 25th year Anniversary Edition of this book.

Warning: Sensuous romance that contains separated lovers who will let nothing come between them…not oceans, her mysterious past, or a murderer bent on destroying their future.
