Virginia Henley

Others: Negative

A HELLCAT BEAUTY SCHEMING FOR LOVE: Wild as a pagan goddess, Lady Summer galloped her stallion along the Cornish coast. She had dabbled in the smuggler's game to save her family estate, but a wealthy marriage would better serve her purpose now. Lord Ruark Helford seemed the answer to her reckless prayers. But as his hot, hungry kisses drew her toward deception and irresistible acts of love, she had to hesitate. Would this arrogant, handsome lord be her ticket to heaven--or hell? A BOLD LORD WITH ONLY SEDUCTION IN MIND: Both a ruthless privateer and King Charles II's confidant, Lord Helford was a mysterious and dangerous man. Lady Summer's sensual innocence captivated him. When she suddenly appeared at court, he thought she'd be an easy conquest, a willing student of his brazen, skillful desire. But when she managed to steal his heart he vowed she must submit, obey, and never deceive him, or by God's tears, he'd tame her not as a gentleman but as only a pirate could....

    When Lady Johanna learned that she was a widow, she vowed she would never marry again. Only sixteen, already she possessed a strength of will that impressed all who looked past her golden-haired beauty. Yet when King John demanded that she remarry -- and selected a bridegroom for her -- it seemed she must acquiesce, until her beloved foster brother suggested she wed his friend, the handsome Scottish warrior Gabriel MacBain. At first Johanna was shy, but as Gabriel tenderly revealed the splendid pleasures they would share, she came to suspect that she was falling in love with her gruff new husband. And it was soon apparent to the entire Highlands clan that their brusque, gallant laird had surrendered his heart completely. But now a desperate royal intrigue threatened to tear her from his side -- and to destroy the man whose love meant more to her than she had ever dreamed! (From the Author's web-site.)
