Stealing Cupid's Bow
Jewel Quinlan
Nothing says "Valentine's Day" like a romance novel with the infamous Cupid/Eros in the starring role.

Fantasy/Paranormal Romance, Erotica, or Contemporary romance not your thing? Perhaps your tastes are more towards the historical side of romance. Here are some of my favorite historical romance authors.
![]()
Annabel was about to take the veil to become a nun when her mother suddenly arrives at the Abbey to take her home…so that she can marry the Scottish laird who is betrothed to her runaway sister! She knows nothing about being a wife, nothing about how to run a household, and definitely nothing about the marriage bed.
He never expected to fall in love . . .
From the moment Ross MacKay sets eyes on Annabel, he is taken with his shy sweet bride…and the fact that she's blessed with lush curves only makes him utter his own prayers of thanks. But when an enemy endangers her life, he'll move the Highlands themselves to save her. For though Annabel's not the bride he planned for, she's the only woman he desires.

Nothing speaks to the heart more than a lost love and the heart that gets a second chance. Denyse Bridger's Return to Love is a beautifully and sensuous tale of a heart that gets a second chance in this historical western novel that is also available in Audio from Amazon.

Lynsay Sands, who is well known for her Argeneau series also is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to her many historical romance titles. An English Bride in Scotland will conjure images of when men were rugged and the fierce hot love they had for their women.

The Pirate Prince
by Connie Mason
Blurb:
Virgin Treasure
She was a jewel among women, brighter than the moon and starts. Her hair shone like newly minted gold, and her skin was as smooth and iridescent as an exquisite pearl. Her lips were lush and pink, made for kissing. She was a pirate’s prize, yet he could not so much as touch her.
Virgin Trouble
Destined for the harem of a Turkish potentate, Willow wondered whether she should rejoice or despair when her ship was beset by a sinfully handsome pirate. Now is seemed she was a helpless pawn in a power play between two brothers. Fortunately for Willow, neither Ibrahim nor Dariq realized that a clever woman is never without resources. No matter how much he tempted her, she would teach her captor a thing or two before she gave her heart to … The Pirate Prince.
