Forever his
She pledged her innocent heart to a rugged and dangerous half-breed... Raised on his father's Tidewater plantation and educated to be a gentleman, Harrison De Nay had captured sixteen-year-old Leah Tanner's heart with gentle words and tender passion. They'd pledged their love, planned to marry. Until cruel fate thrust them apart. Now, eight years later, as the colonies fought for freedom in a war that pitted brother against brother and tribe against tribe, Leah desperately needed his help in her search for her kidnapped child. She found Harrison living among the Shawnee -- an unforgiving stranger of steely strength and smoldering anger. Gazing into the relentless depths of his dark eyes, Leah was stunned by the powerful hunger that still bound them. The passion that ignited the smoldering embers of desire into savage fury would transform a perilous mission into a wild journey of the heart, as Leah risked life itself to seize her destiny -- with the only man she would ever love!

Patriot's Passion
PASSIONATE REBEL Supplying the British soldiers with faulty footwear was Maggie Myer's small but satisfying way of helping her fellow Patriots fight for independence. But when the beautiful bootmaker was caught stealing enemy supplies by Redcoat captain Grayson Thayer, she knew she'd finally landed in big trouble. For the tall, breathtakingly handsome officer would not be easy to elude... and after looking into his piercing blue eyes and feeling the heat of his lean, hard embrace, Maggie wasn't sure escape was what she wanted. He said he'd free her for the price of a kiss, but somehow Maggie knew that once his lips met hers, she'd belong to him forever! ENTICING ENEMY Grayson Thayer was tired of living a lie. Seven years was long enough to gather information for the rebels while pretending to be a loyal officer in His Majesty's army. If only he could tell Maggie the truth... not that she'd care. The little mercenary would sell her wares to either side for a profit. Not the sort of woman a man could trust, but trust had little to do with pleasure. He would sample the silken wonders of her creamy flesh, taste the wild honey of her beckoning lips, and leave her trembling with the sensual power of a PATRIOT'S PASSION
