Forced into marriage to an older man, Lucilla, daughter of Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius, indulges in material wealth, gladiatorial games, and sexual pleasures. After Lucilla is exiled to the Isle of Capri in the year 182, she hears about a plan to kill her. In desperation she begs Nerva, a wizard, for help. Since the Emperor forbade boat owners to carry Lucilla, Nerva offers her a dangerous alternative: a time portal to hide her on Capri in another century. With assassins closing in, Lucilla barely escapes, stepping through the portal into the middle of a hazardous OSS Mission during World War Two in the year 1942. There Mark Costello, an Italian-American OSS agent, saves her life. After recovering from her shock of the 20th Century, Lucilla agrees to help liberate Italy from Nazi Oppression if Mark will return her to the past when it's safer. Her whole-hearted work in an unselfish cause transforms Lucilla's heart and brings her real love for the first time in her life.

“Don’t say it, don’t ask it, I wouldn’t be able to say no,” he whispered, his voice full of desire. “I can’t…we can’t…not yet, not now.” He lifted my chin slowly with his finger again. His eyes almost pleaded with mine to ask him and not ask him in, but the smart logical thing to do would be to wait - not complicate this even more. Not while there was still risk involved. * Sonja Winters has finally been able to start picking up the broken pieces of her personal life with the help of therapy after leaving an abusive ex.

Lori Mayer is failing out of law school (again), her boyfriend just ran off with her best study partner (she was really going to miss Karl - he took great notes), and she's all out of coffee. However bleak everything seems now, she'll soon discover life can get a whole lot crazier when she meets a drop-dead gorgeous love god named Des who's determined to change her life. Before she can blink, Lori is sent to a whole different world - a place where cell phones don't exist and her iPad is about as useful as a frisbee. A place where hot immortals, savage werewolves, and everything else under the sun runs wild. In this place of warrior kings and sword-wielding guards she will come face-to-face with her soul-mate, but can Lori resist her attraction to Eric McKenna, the ridiculously sexy king of the immortals, and return to her own world, where everything makes sense and places like Wolfgard only exist in books? Not if Des has anything to do with it. He may be cursed to help mortal women find their true loves but it's his game, and in this game of hearts only one thing matters: Sealing the deal. Lori Mayer doesn't stand a chance. **Copyrighted Material: Catch, Curse, Release (formerly entitled Love Bites) Copyright © Wendy Nelson 2012 All Rights Reserved.
