"No George. I'm not Olivia." I replied and he chuckled. "Don't joke. I'm serious." He spoke. "I am not Olivia. I'm not joking." I replied. He looked at me confused. "Then who are you?" He asked. "I'm Rose Smith. The one who died six weeks ago." I replied. Not a thriller or anything. Just a simple romance book with a twist. Interesting?

She gave him everything. Her heart, her patience, and every last ounce of faith. He gave her cruel agreements. Grace Carter was the maid's daughter. Quiet, brilliant, and invisible in the world of the powerful Knight family. But when Eleanor Knight's will unexpectedly named her, a carefully arranged marriage was set in motion. Killian and his mother, Catalia, saw it as a solution to protect the family legacy. What was meant to secure their inheritance became Grace's slow undoing. Silenced, belittled, and worked to the bone while carrying his child, she was bound by an agreement that forced her to disappear before she gave birth. Five months later, Killian finds her again. Struggling, exhausted, and still impossible to forget. But this time, she is no longer the girl who loved him. She is the woman who learned to live without him. Now Killian wants back what he never protected. And Grace wants to survive him all over again.

To keep with her disguise, she agrees to work with her cousin at a saloon, not knowing what she was getting herself in to. But when her cousin is suddenly murdered, Nicole feels alone in the strange town. The only person she can trust is her employer, Caleb West. Yet, can she trust him at all? If he ever discovered her secret, he would send her packing for sure. But, try as she might, she can't fight the pull of attraction between them, especially when he is the first man ever to kiss her. Now she definitely can't tell him the truth.

Madeleine Butler was never meant to be an ordinary Tudor woman. Raised by enlightened parents who valued knowledge as highly as noble blood, Madeleine grows into one of the most brilliant women in England. Her remarkable intellect soon catches the attention of King Henry VIII, who entrusts her with the education and care of his children. Though she admires his vision for England, she cannot overlook the ruthless choices that have defined his reign, and she keeps the king at a careful distance. But in 1537, tragedy changes everything. United by devastating loss, Madeleine and Henry find comfort in one another when neither expected it. What begins as an unlikely friendship slowly blossoms into a love that defies court expectations, and soon the woman who once criticized England's most feared monarch becomes his queen. As Henry's final wife, Madeleine must navigate the dangerous world of Tudor politics, where ambitious nobles, jealous courtiers, and religious unrest threaten both her family and the future of the kingdom. Determined to give England the stability it desperately needs, she bears Henry six children-three daughters and, at last, the sons he has long desired-while also protecting the twins from her first marriage as they are drawn into the heart of the royal court. Yet producing heirs is only the beginning. In a kingdom where every smile conceals a scheme and every alliance can become a betrayal, Madeleine must use her wit, courage, and compassion to keep her family alive-and reshape the destiny of the Tudor dynasty forever.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice? I think not. For readers: *I do my best to proofread before publishing, but some typos and errors will slip through.

Every night someone touches her skin - passionately, tenderly, almost lovingly. There can't be anyone in the empty apartment.... But she feels him. Afraid. And longs to feel those bold touches again. Fear mixed with sweet anticipation. Who is he? And what will happen when the secret is out?

When Ana confronts her new neighbour after being kept up all night by his sex noises, she's mortified to discover he's none other than Freddie-the police officer who arrested her abusive ex-boyfriend last month. The pair interact only when necessary and do so with light-hearted insults and harmless pranks. But when a baby shows up on his doorstep with a note claiming to be his, Freddie suddenly needs his neighbour for more than just a casual flirt. They think their relationship is platonic, but when their attraction is no longer avoidable, they come up with one rule. Don't kiss. Everything else is up for grabs and if Ana can stick to that one rule, her heart will remain unbroken. She has no desire to fall in love and Freddie simply doesn't have time. They think it's the perfect agreement but when feelings intensify, it becomes clear their plan is failing. Secrets are unveiled. Hearts get broken. Love gets complicated.

As Lord Adam Beresford left Ashwood, Hertfordshire for the training and education of a gentleman, he promised to return and marry his childhood best friend, and the only girl he could see himself marrying, Grace Denham. Neither of them foresaw that it would be twelve years until they would meet again. A lot has changed in that time, and their lives are vastly different. Adam became a gentleman, and everything that the heir to a Dukedom ought to be. Grace remained in Ashwood and became a housemaid to support her family. But as their lives intertwine once more, their childhood promise bubbles to the surface, throwing their lives, the lives of their families, and the village of Ashwood into chaos.

John Osborne has a promising career with the War Office and lacks for nothing. Except, possibly, a wife. Unfortunately, the woman he wants only has eyes for someone else. When a shared friend offers to help him win his love's heart--if only he will assist her on a case--he reluctantly agrees. He can put up with their grating presence if it affords him the chance of the happily ever after he so desperately craves. Lady Mary Kinson is happily counting down the days until she will officially be considered 'on the shelf'. Spinsterhood is looking rather appealing when getting married means giving up everything and trusting your husband to care for you. She'd rather use her dowry for a quiet life on her own. Until her younger sister does the unthinkable and Mary has to enlist the help of a friend to save her family from ruin.
