Book Description
Hunters of the Ice Age At the dawn of time a proud people battled for survival, at one with the harsh beauty of the land and its primal rhythms. Ambushed… Banished by his Lion People for a crime he did not commit, Blade expected to walk the windswept, prehistoric hills, alone for the rest of his life—on constant guard against the huge bears and saber-tooth tigers…. Instead, he was ambushed by three hunters. After her husband-to-be was killed by a vicious bear, Denai gave up all hope of a man of her own. Her life would henceforth be spent sewing and cooking for her three brothers, hunters all, in return for their protection against the huge wild animals that stalked the land. Then came the day when her brothers returned from a hunt, leading a strong, handsome captive—a man they'd captured out on the prehistoric hills, a man with no people, no past. A man who was to be her mate… or he would die. And beautiful Denai had little choice, for she, too, was caught… in Love’s Ambush...

Pages : 293
Book Description
She thought he was arrogant. He thought she was trouble. Will conflict, misunderstanding and suspected betrayal allow two people to ultimately find each other? Corporal Jessie McAllister is a US Marine Corps medic, deployed to Afghanistan during renewed hostilities and attached to the British Army, Bravo Recon Section. She is totally unprepared for the hostile conditions, not only from the environment but also from the members of her new section and her commanding officer. The lieutenant makes it quite clear that he considers her a troublemaker, intent on disrupting his section. Determined that no man will dictate or control her, Jessie is angered by his judgmental attitude and tries to convince herself that he is arrogant and conceited. Why then does she find him so attractive, and what is it about Nick Ryan that sends her pulse racing? Lieutenant Nick Ryan has no intention of allowing a woman to mess with his section, no matter how beautiful he finds her. Falling in love with any woman—let alone when he is fighting a war—has never been part of his plans. Why then does he find it increasingly hard to deny his feelings for her, and why does he want her so badly? Through misunderstanding, betrayal and the hard facts of war, love is almost lost. Two very different hearts are on a collision course in a hostile and unrelenting land. Will their love be able to breach insurmountable barriers or will everything fade away?

Pages : 498
Book Description
An extraordinary debut novel of love that survives the fires of hell and transcends the boundaries of time. On a burn ward, a man lies between living and dying, so disfigured that no one from his past life would even recognize him. His only comfort comes from imagining various inventive ways to end his misery. Then a woman named Marianne Engel walks into his hospital room, a wild-haired, schizophrenic sculptress on the lam from the psych ward upstairs, who insists that she knows him – that she has known him, in fact, for seven hundred years. She remembers vividly when they met, in another hospital ward at a convent in medieval Germany, when she was a nun and he was a wounded mercenary left to die. If he has forgotten this, he is not to worry: she will prove it to him. And so Marianne Engel begins to tell him their story, carving away his disbelief and slowly drawing him into the orbit and power of a word he'd never uttered: love.
