Description

Ever After by Nora Roberts Beautiful but scatterbrained Allena Kennedy is in Ireland, attempting to redeem herself in the eyes of her overachieving family by working for her sister’s tour-group enterprise. Unfortunately, just as she’s finally getting the hang of being “responsible,” she gets sidetracked by a curio store owner who sells her a beautiful star-shaped pendant. Through a series of slightly strange coincidences, she ends up stranded on a fairly secluded island with hunky, brooding artist, Conal O’Neil. Conal, it appears, is trying to fight fate: a family prophesy predicts that he will pledge his troth to his soulmate on Midsummer’s Night, a woman who is supposed to wear the exact same star-shaped pendant Allena has on. Catch A Falling Star by Jill Gregory Princess Lianna of Penmarren must marry Ambrose the Barbarian, Duke of Blackenstar, to save her war-torn country. Ambrose’s reputation is beyond black: not only is he a feared warlord, but he is rumored to have killed his first wife for failing to conceive, and there is talk of a curse hanging over Blackenstar. Lianna’s only hope is to have her cousin Constantine and his large army rescue her once he returns from a battle overseas. The Curse of Castle Clough by Ruth Ryan Langan Lord Robert Cameron is forced to sell his family heirlooms to pay off the fifteen million pounds his dead father borrowed from the husband of Robert's dead sister. Estelle Sinclair, a professional appraiser with a prestigious New York auction house, arrives at the Scottish castle to help Robert in this task before the one-month deadline is up. However, she encounters an antiquity her Ph.D. never prepared her for in the form of a ghostly boy named Jamie. Supernatural encounters aside, her professionalism is even more seriously jeopardized when she finds herself falling in love with Robert, and is slowly drawn into his struggle to pay his father’s debt. The only answer may be to find a legendary diamond called the Star of Scotland, which has allegedly been a Cameron heirloom for centuries. Starry, Starry Night by Marianne Willman Lily Kendall is rescued one stormy night in Cornwall by the handsome, brooding Rees Tregarrick, who brings her back to his house for shelter. However, when she wakes up the next morning, she finds herself in a museum, and the last Rees Tregarrick to occupy the house died a hundred years ago. Did Lily encounter a ghost? Or did she manage to travel back in time?
