Adelaide, the Enchantress
by Kay HooperFrom New York Times bestselling author Kay Hooper comes a Delaney novel that’s sure to set hearts racing, as a globe-trotting bad boy finds himself in hot pursuit of a beautiful thrill-seeker. Shane Marston may be a champion horse breeder back in America, but down under, in Australia, he’s just a rookie—especially when it comes to the beguiling jockey with the flaming red hair who looks like an angel and rides like a bat out of hell. Her fragile, exquisite exterior belies her addiction to living on the edge. Shane’s used to breaking in horses, but does he have the strength to tame this incredible woman? Adelaide Delaney pushes herself—and her horses—to the limit on the track, determined to win enough money to make her dreams come true. But racing is more than a means to an end; it’s her one and only passion—that, and the racehorse named Resolute. Until she meets Shane. When he offers up his heart, she discovers all the aching pleasures that had been missing from her life. But Adelaide wonders if she can really give Shane what he most desires: to trade the dangers and the thrills of racing for the sweet safety of his embrace. This ebook includes an excerpt from another Loveswept title.
Adelas Reise
by Mª del Mar AgullóBuchbeschreibung Glaubst du an Liebe auf den ersten Blick? Adela ist eine junge Frau, deren monotones Leben auf den Kopf gestellt wird, als sie einen leidenschaftlichen, attraktiven und interessanten Mann trifft, mit dem sie endlich “Ich liebe dich” zu sagen lernt. Adela wird sich aber auch bewusst, dass das Leben immer für eine Überraschung gut ist und nicht immer eine angenehme und dass das Konzept "für immer" und das Wort “Zeit” eine andere Bedeutung annehmen können. Adela lebt eine atypische Liebesgeschichte, aus der, nach einer katastrophalen ersten Begegnung und anfänglichen Hindernissen, eine Beziehung mit dem Mann wird, in den sie sich verliebt hat. Nach einigen Monaten Beziehung kommt eine neue Phase, in der sie sich einer unerwarteten und noch nie durchlebten Situation stellen muss, was sie dazu bringen wird, Entscheidungen zu treffen, die ihr Leben verändern werden. Adela lernt zu verstehen, dass in der Liebe die Grenzen nicht existieren und dass es, egal wie viele Steine einem in den Weg gelegt werden, immer eine Lösung gibt, auch wenn es manchmal nicht die Gewünschte ist. Sie versucht, so sehr wie möglich eine Liebe zu bewahren, von der sie fühlt, dass sie ihr nach und nach entgleitet, bis sie an einen Punkt kommt, an dem sie sich entscheiden muss, ob sie nach vorne blickt und sich verabschiedet oder sich weiter an der Vergangenheit festklammert. Begleite Adela auf dieser persönlichen Reise, bei der sie sich selbst ins Gesicht sehen muss, während ihre Ängste, Wünsche und Prioritäten den Kurs ändern, um neuen Erfahrungen Platz zu machen, die ihr am Ende ein neues Leben ermöglichen.

The Adjustments
by Ann LinebergerIn the postcard Connecticut town of Cannondale, financial status is followed closely by social standing. Nowhere is this battle more fiercely contested than among the housewives of Fairfield County. Attending yoga classes at the trendy studio in town--taught by the sexy and mysterious Yogi Jack--is part of every elite woman's routine. It allows them a daily escape from the madness of their over-scheduled lives. But the inner peace that yoga brings is only part of the appeal: many of the women come for Yogi Jack, the studio's sexual energy, and the seductive in-class adjustments. In his private sessions, Yogi Jack provides services above and beyond the usual realm of warrior pose, downward-facing dog, and shavasana. One-on-one time with Jack is increasingly sought-after by every one of his female students, from women looking for a deeper stretch to those seeking an entirely different kind of experience--a sexual awakening. As high-profile magazine editor Elizabeth Kelly and her realtor sister Abigail Davis-Powers soon discover, their little, affluent town is not at all what it seems. Hidden behind the immaculately designed houses and their posh facades is the dirty laundry of the housewives of Fairfield County. Drama, jealousy, and intrigue emerge as the women delve deeper into the greedy, status-obsessed underbelly of Cannondale. And when one dark secret finds the light of day, it will threaten to change their lives forever.The Adjustments is Ann Lineberger's debut novel.*This novel contains mature content.Advance Praise for The Adjustments: "Ann Lineberger cooks up a devilishly delicious blend of yoga, sexcapades, McMansions, videotapes, and a roaring bonfire of intrigue in THE ADJUSTMENTS, as she rips open the underbelly of contemporary suburban life. This scalding novel speaks to one indelible truth: people are rarely who or what they seem to be." --Mark Rubinstein, award-winning author of The Lovers' Tango "Eastern holistic practice collides with Western materialism in Fairfield County! Ann Lineberger's keen awareness of the insecurities that quake behind wealthy facades allows her to both tweak and empathize with her subjects. Yoga isn't the only thing tying the women of Cannondale in knots in this saucy, sexy, and insightful debut novel." --Jacques Lamarre, playwright and director of communications, The Mark Twain House and Museum "Are those well-heeled suburbanites flocking to their fancy yoga classes because they're honestly searching for inner peace--or for something more exciting? You'll find the scandalous answer in The Adjustments, a scorching page-turner that shows how a Connecticut town can be as hot as L.A. or Miami." --Alan Deutschman, author of A Tale of Two Valleys: Wine, Wealth, and the Battle for the Good Life in Napa and Sonoma

The Admiral's Daughter
by Judith HarknessIn this classic Regency Romance, reminiscent of the work of Jane Austen, Judith Harkness tells the tale of Maggie Trevor, the spirited daughter of a hero of the Napoleonic Wars. With a light touch and witty eye for human foibles, Harkness paints the fashionable world of Regency England, when styles were dictated by Beau Brummel, the Duchess of Devonshire held court, and dandies paraded in their phaetons and four. Groomed by their mamas to capture the hearts of the most eligible bachelors of the day, fashionable young ladies passed the Season in London, where they were presented at Almack's and at an endless stream of balls in all their finery and feathers.Ever since she could remember, Maggie Trevor had heard her dead mother's aristocratic family dismissed as autocratic and cruel by her doting father. But when Admiral Trevor unexpectedly sends her off to visit the new scion of that very family, the arrogant Lord Ramblay, Maggie has reason to harbor her own suspicions about her cousins. Lord Ramblay's icy, unfeeling manner and mysterious disappearances is in complete contrast to his stated desire to take care of his young cousin. And when gallant Captain Morrisson, whose welcome attentions and helpful assistance have made Maggie's entrance into London society so much more pleasurable, alludes to a sordid affair in the Viscount's past, Maggie is more sure than ever of his sinister intentions. Soon Maggie is in a whirlwind of suspense, left with no one but herself to trust, and no heart but her own to obey.The Admiral's Daughter will delight readers craving a good, old-fashioned romantic mystery in the tradition of Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer. From elegant London balls to majestic country estates, from gowns and curricles to brilliant hunting scenes, it brims with period detail and will immerse the reader in a true romantic escape.Judith Harkness is the author of five classic Regency Romances: The Montague Scandal, The Admiral's Daughter, The Determined Bachelor, Contrary Cousins, and Lady Charlotte's Ruse, all originally published by Signet.
