LUCAN (Steele Protectors 6) is the last book in USA Today and Amazon #1 Bestselling Author, Carole Mortimer’s, ALL Amazon #1 Bestselling Contemporary Romantic Suspense series, Steele Protectors. Author’s Note: Beware of the very sexy & very alpha Steele brothers. These books are HOT! Eight years ago Rachel Ford was put into the Witness Protection programme after her parents were killed and her sister later died in a car crash. Her name isn’t her own. England isn’t her birthplace. The only people she has in her life even remotely close to calling family is the couple, friends of her mother, who fostered her until she was eighteen. At least, that’s what Rachel has always believed… When Lucan Steele is tasked with protecting Rachel Ford, an art historian working in a London museum, he decides the best way to do that is to take her to a safe house until the danger has passed. Turns out Rachel isn’t the staid historian Lucan had been expecting. Instead she’s beautiful, fiery and sensual, and exactly the sort of unpredictable woman Lucan doesn’t need in his life after his years in the military left him scarred, both inside and out. So much so that Lucan doesn’t believe any woman could ever accept the things he did in his past. But as Lucan quickly discovers, Rachel isn’t like other women, and the heated attraction between the two of them becomes too intense for either of them to deny any longer. But Lucan’s past, whether or not the two of them could ever have a future together, might not matter when Rachel learns what really happened eight years ago…
Kingston’s Salvation (Kingston Security 5) is the fifth book in USA Today and Amazon International #1 Bestselling Author, Carole Mortimer’s, Contemporary Romantic Suspense series. Mia is just a student, who walks other people dogs before and after class to earn extra money. When she sees something she shouldn’t, the last thing she expects is to find herself in danger and in need of a protector. Especially one as large and intimidating as Darius Kingston. Darius takes one look at Mia, and like his brothers and cousin before him, knows that she’s the woman who’s meant to be his. But there’s a darkness inside Darius, one that prevents him from allowing anyone too close to him, including Mia. Pushing her away ceases to be an option the moment Mia is attacked and left for dead. The person responsible for hurting her should start to run, now, because Darius is going to ensure they can never hurt Mia, or anyone else, again.
THE GUARDIAN (Ruthless Regency Dukes 4) is the fourth book in USA Today and Amazon International #1 Bestselling Author, Carole Mortimer’s, NEW Regency Romance series. Hunter St. John, the Duke of Lincoln, is far too busy hunting the person who murdered one of his closest friends to deal with the problem of his young ward, Miss Evelyn Gardener. Indeed, for the most part he chooses to forget her very existence. That is made easier by the fact he sent her, along with her governess, to his remotest ducal estate in Yorkshire years ago and has seen very little of her since. Receiving a missive from that governess, informing him that his young ward has run away, is not only inconvenient to his own plans but disobedient in the extreme on hers. Something Miss Evelyn Gardener will soon learn to her detriment. Once Hunter has succeeded in finding her, of course… Evie is tired of living in the country and being ignored by her guardian, the toplofty Duke of Lincoln. To that end she has decided to travel to London and make him acknowledge that, at nineteen years of age, she is no longer a child for him to ignore. It is hardly her fault if, on the long journey to England’s capital, she is waylaid and captured by a group of footpads. Nor, when she hears those men discussing demanding a ransom from her guardian in exchange for her release, is she at all sure the Duke of Lincoln will bother himself to pay that ransom. Indeed, she believes the duke might happily wash his hands of her. When the two of them do finally meet again sparks certainly do fly, but not of the kind either of them had expected…

That seems straightforward enough, it’s what Dair does, after all. Only trouble is, Dair hasn’t seen Kat for years, and his affectionate memories of her as a coltish fifteen-year-old in no way prepare him for the beautiful woman Kat has become. Kat has given up hope of being rescued from the hell in which she’s been incarcerated for weeks. The arrival of Dair Grayson changes all that. But Dair is no longer that devil-may-care teenager she remembers from so long ago but instead he’s become a hardened and scarred warrior.

And what she wants now is Dair, and for the two of them to satisfy the hot and explosive sexual tension between them until it’s time for her to start running again.

Lord Daniel Somersby, the Earl of Latham, is relieved to be returning to his country estate in Kent after suffering through the boredom of yet another tedious London Season, as well as avoiding the more determined women set on marriage. He certainly doesn’t appreciate arriving home to find a brawl taking place in his stable yard. Having disguised herself as a young boy in order to escape the unwanted marriage being forced upon her by her cousin, heiress Lady Josephine Kendall is set upon by thieves within days of her desperate flight, and her money and possessions stolen from her. A week later, with no money to buy food or lodgings, she is in dire straits, and that night seeks refuge in the stables of the absent Earl of Latham. The head groom finds her asleep there in the morning and takes pity on her by offering her employment. Giving her name as Jo Turner she continues to dress in her male clothing, and quickly learns to swear and curse like the rest of the men working on the estate. The only fly in the ointment is the jealousy of one the other stable lads when Jo’s horsemanship finds favour with the head groom. Unfortunately the earl arrives home unexpectedly at the very moment Jo punches and bloodies said stable lad’s nose. Lord Daniel Somersby is more handsome than any man has a right to be, and it sets Jo’s heart aflutter just to look at him. He also brings a swift end to the altercation in his stable yard, and afterwards announces it is his intention to take a personal interest in “taming” Jo Turner into more acceptable behaviour. Faced with the choice of returning to the open road, along with possible detection by her cousin, or accepting the earl’s “taming” of the lad Jo Turner, she decides to opt for the latter. For the moment. Because if the earl discovers the stable boy is not a boy at all then Jo knows she will have no choice but to run again. Will Daniel discover Jo’s secret? And if he does what will he do about it? Or will Jo’s cousin find her first and drag her back home to marry a man she could never like let alone love? Author’s Note: The stories in the Regency Unlaced, Knight Security, and Alpha Series, have stronger sexual content and language than my other books.
