Halima Story
She was taught that good girls stay quiet.
That some truths are too heavy to say out loud.
That love means carrying it alone.
For many years, Halima kept Mama Bose's secret buried under "I'm fine."
She smiled at family dinners. She answered when they called her.
But every night, the silence got heavier.
At 11:47 PM, the weight became too much.
Her fingers shook. Her heart said _speak_.
Her fear said _don't_.
She chose anyway.
This isn't just about what she said.
It's about what it costs to finally say

Twins of Tenby Hall
"The Riley twins were born in the spring of 1797 during a ferocious storm that battered the Salisbury Plain for three days together. Isabel entered the world with a flash of lightning, her shrieking drowned out by a grand clap of thunder. Thirteen minutes later the storm abated, clouds parted, and Miranda was handed to her father, blinking in rays of sun that poured through the window." Isabel loves the comfort of home and the company of her family and few close friends. She doesn't care for the drama of the season or dream of gothic adventures as her sister does. She is wild and carefree in her own right, mischievous if need be, and the fun she has with her sister and closest friend is enough to satisfy her fancies. If only life took pleasure in forcing adventure on those who wished for it, instead of those who did not. Miranda is a playful romantic, she looks forward to her first season with a desperation which rivals that of a starving man on his way to a feast. She can't wait to dress in beautiful gowns and dance the nights away with the height of the Ton. More than anything, she dreams of finding her prince charming and falling in love; but love is a game, and some play it far too well. What readers are saying: "What a wonderful read!!

Lady Eilean
The youngest child of the formidable and powerful MacLeod family of Ellesmure Island, Eilean is all but neglected in the rowdy environment of Stormway Castle - where a girl has not been born to the ruling family in centuries. Her seven older brothers dominate the time and attention of her parents, and her family seems utterly perplexed by what to do with a girl aside from waiting for her to grow up so she can get married. Bright and intelligent, Eilean's potential is only seen by her good friend, Alexander Leslie, a ward of the MacLeod's and a Lord from a neighboring kingdom. When Eilean's fathers and brothers are called off to war, the burden of running Stormway Castle and the surrounding estates falls into Eilean's unprepared hands. She struggles to maintain control of her family's lands as conflict, famine, and her own ignorance threaten to pull Ellesmure into ruin. When an old friend returns and provides Eilean with the support she desperately needs to survive, she finds herself torn between her heart's desires and her growing love of duty to the people of the island.

The Firstborn
Sophia has sacrificed everything for her younger sister, Lucy. She has removed them from the only home they ever knew, taken on the care of Lucy's illegitimate son, George, and even assumed the role of a widow and mother in order to erase all hint of scandal from the boy's birth. But rumor continues to follow them like the darkest of clouds, and Sophia must adapt to her new existence as a false widow with no prospects beyond the doors of her small cottage. Lord Haughton - "Finn" to those close to him - will stop at nothing to prevent the slightest whiff of disgrace from tainting his family's name. When he learns of his younger brother's latest indiscretion-one that leaves a bastard child in his wake-Haughton rushes across the country to offer the boy's mother a comfortable living in exchange for her silence about the child's true parentage. But he arrives only to have his generous offer thrown back in his face by Sophia Brixton, a sharp-tongued and sharper-witted woman who proceeds to toss him out of her house. But just because he is banished from her home does not mean he is so easily banished from her life.Lengkap
