"A wonderful tale!" --Hannah Howell, New York Times bestselling author A bride comes to Bonniebroch. . . But Cait Grant is hardly dreaming of wedded bliss. For political reasons, she must marry Adam Cameron, laird of Bonniebroch. And then, as a duty to her clan, she must murder him. . . If only her new husband weren't so devilishly handsome. If only she didn't have to play the loving wife for one long, languorous month. If only she didn't surrender to his softly sensual touch, she would be able to fulfill her duty. If only she didn't fall in love. . . Praise for Mia Marlowe and her novels "Marlowe proves she has the 'touch' for strong heroines, wickedly sexy heroes, and love scenes so hot they singe the pages." --USA Today bestselling author Jennifer Ashley "Sensuality, sexuality, passion and mystery blend into a wonderfully entertaining tale." --Romantic Times "Both historical and paranormal readers will love this crossover tale." --Publishers Weekly starred review 29,618 Words

Fenella Oliphant has always thought it apropos she was named after an herb: Useful, subtle, and not much to look at. But in the Oliphant Castle kitchens none of that matters, because she is the one in command...that is, as long as she can keep from being distracted by the dangerously delicious beast who's planted his shapely arse beside her hearth and insists on offering unwanted advice. Brodie McClure doesn't know who he is anymore. He used to be one of His Majesty's elite Hunters, bodyguard to his laird and damned handsome to boot. But now, he's scarred and maimed, relegated to peeling carrots in the kitchens, while watching the most tempting little morsel alternate between blushing prettily and snapping commands. It's not his fault the woman has no idea how to properly season mutton and refuses to listen to his suggestions. So, clearly, it's up to him to instruct her. Sparks-and eggs!-fly, until a friend offers a solution: A simple contest, using an assigned ingredient, and judged by a panel of three iron-clad stomachs. Fenella and Brodie jump at the opportunity to prove themselves the better chef, but somewhere among the butter, honey and cinnamon, they realize they're going to have to make a pact to cooperate if they want to get out of this with their hearts-and lower intestines-unscathed! Warning: Contains food puns. You can't expect Caroline to write a romcom about two iron-willed chefs and not make phallic jokes. There will also be at least one food fight, because we can't take any of this seriously. Get ready for another hilarious (and supremely naughty) medieval romp from a USA Today Bestseller!

Wood from a tree on the mortal plane, the leaf from the Fae world, and the seed from gods-only-knew-where; it had become a thing of all of them. *** Ten months ago, the Gypsies battled the Fae for Ryna's soul. As the cycle of the rennies' year returns to Pendragon, they find their beloved playground more steeped in Magick than ever. Ten months ago, they won. Now clocks refuse to function, phantom music rides the wind, and as strange creatures stalk the grounds, Ryna feels the call of Pendragon's shadow-self more keenly with every pasing day. But the Fae are old, and patient, and they do not give up easily. As Phoenix is about to find out, just because you've sworn you're done with the them doesn't mean they're done with you....
