Victoria Seaton, a free-spirited American beauty left suddenly orphaned, is determined to lay claim to her long-lost heritage in Great Britain. When she arrives at Wakefield, the sumptuous estate of her distant cousin Lord Jason Fielding, she is overwhelmed by its astounding elegance.

Wed in desire, they are enfolded in a fierce, consuming joy, free at last from the past’s cruel grasp. Then, in a moment of blinding anguish, Victoria discovers the shocking treachery that lays at the heart of their love. Is it too much for their relationship or will their love last once and always?

Croteching has become Molly Pink's relaxing escape from her hectic life as a bookstore event manager and from the stress of being Tarzana, California’s latest murder suspect... For Molly, the weekly crochet group at Shedd & Royal Books and More was just another event to manage. Then she stumbled across the body of group leader Ellen Sheridan. Her complicated past with Ellen has made her a prime suspect, and after being cuffed and questioned, she could use a little diversion. Never mind that she doesn’t know how to crochet. Granny squares don’t look that hard to make. But while Molly’s fending off a detective with a grudge and navigating crochet group politics, the real killer is at large. And it’s up to Molly to catch the culprit—before she winds up in a tight knot. Delicious recipe and crochet pattern included! “A gentle and charming novel...Its quirky and likable characters are appealing and real.”—Earlene Fowler, author of Tumbling Blocks
