Aeran is tech savvy, a man of the 21st century, and Rhys is still the warrior he has been for the past sixteen centuries, living by the code of kill or be killed. Even more troublesome, their fated mate is the daughter of the man Aeran and Rhys helped condemn to death after he tried to kill the fated mate of their eldest brother, Grigor. Cristina doesn’t know who she can trust when she finds herself alone and unprotected in London after her father’s disappearance. She daren’t accept the help of Aeran and Rhys Pendragon when they suddenly appear in her life. She doesn’t know either man, and her father never mentioned knowing them either, so who are they and what do they want from her? Unfortunately she doesn’t have any choice but to accept Aeran and Rhys’s protection after an attempt is made on her life. Finding herself suddenly alone with these two handsome and totally different men, Cristina quickly realizes she’s attracted to both of them. Aeran and Rhys make it obvious they return that attraction. Cristina has no idea how she is supposed to choose between these two intensely determined men. She’s even more confused when they assure her she doesn’t have to, and ready to run when they explain the reason why she doesn’t.

Approx 40,000 word count Sebastian Falkner, the Duke of Stowmont, having only recently rid himself of the guardianship of one ward, by marrying her off to the man she loves, has now learned he has been named as guardian to a seven year old boy. To makes matters worse, that young boy is to be accompanied to Sebastian’s London home by his stepsister, Miss Horatia Chelford. From the moment Sebastian meets the plain but outspoken Tia he knows she is going to be a thorn in his side. But one he does not intend to suffer for any longer than he has to. Except he very soon forgets he ever thought of her as being plain and unattractive, and sees only the fineness of her indigo eyes, the silkiness her ivory skin, and the sensuous allure of her highly responsive body. Having suffered the recent and violent death of her beloved stepmother, Tia is determined she will not lose Martin, her young stepbrother, too. With that in mind, she is determined to establish a place for herself within the household of Martin’s new guardian, Sebastian Falkner, the Duke of Stowmont. But she had not expected that gentleman to be quite so coldly haughty and aristocratic, or so devilishly handsome. Indeed, Sebastian Falkner causes a hitherto unknown warmth and desire within Tia which blazes out of her control at the least provocation. And Sebastian can be very provoking. But the person who murdered Tia’s stepmother has followed her and Martin to London, putting both of them in danger. As a consequence, Sebastian is also put at risk, from a man who will stop at nothing to acquire what he believes was stolen from him. Will Sebastian be able to keep Tia and Martin safe? Or protect his heart, which he had believed was too cold and cynical to ever be given to any woman?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DRAGON REUNION is the 8th and last took book in USA Today and Amazon #1 Bestselling Author, Carole Mortimer’s, paranormal dragon shifter series, DRAGON HEARTS. When billionaire Maddox Wilder’s helicopter develops engine problems it forces the pilot to make an emergency landing in North Wales. With a heavy layer of snow on the ground, and a temperature approaching zero, Maddox seeks shelter in the local inn after his pilot volunteers to wait for the arrival of an engineer needed to make the necessary repairs. But Maddox doesn’t remain at the inn for long, somehow feeling himself drawn toward Pendragon Castle perched high up on a nearby snow-covered mountain. Which is odd in itself, because the castle isn’t shown in any of the maps for the area Maddox brings up on line. But the innkeeper assures him that Pendragon Castle exists and has been the property of the Pendragon family for centuries. Within minutes Maddox finds himself standing at the bottom of that mountain, staring up at the medieval fortress, unable to resist that almost magnetic pull drawing him closer and closer. Carys Evans is acting as temporary housekeeper for the Pendragon family while her mother recovers from having an operation and Carys can find a fulltime job of her own. It’s as well the job at the castle is only temporary because Carys is a disaster at it. She’s too young, too trusting, too outgoing, too everything for the very private Pendragon family. When the very tall, very dark, and extremely handsome Maddox Wilder comes calling Carys is instantly aware of the fierce and immediate attraction burning between the two of them, her whole body suddenly feeling alive and responsive in a way it never has before. The Pendragon brothers are less impressed with their visitor but refuse to allow Maddox Wilder to leave until he has explained exactly what he’s doing visiting their castle. There is no way Maddox is going to confide in the arrogant Pendragon brothers that the ‘voice in his head’ told him to come here. Just as that same voice is now telling him that Carys Evans is the woman he has waited his whole life to meet and that she belongs to him. Maddox quickly realizes the Pendragon brothers are hiding a secret that is even more shocking than his own. A secret that totally rocks Maddox’s world and draws him relentlessly toward the truth of who and what he really is.

Both under instruction from the Romanian mafia, who are also now anxious to eliminate her. But things aren’t always what they appear to be, and it’s up to Garrett to prove Billie’s innocence, to his brothers and the Russian bratva, if he wants their help keeping his mate alive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: VIKTOR (Russian Dragon Heat 3) is the third book in the Amazon #1 Russian Dragon Heat paranormal series. These stories have passion and danger, with the occasional visit from characters in my previous dragon shifter series, Dragon Hearts. As a 600-year-old Russian dragon shifter, Viktor has accepted his fate is to be alone until he reaches the end of his very long life. At least he had, until two of his brothers recently found their fated mates. Still, he was only flying over the island that day on his way to somewhere else, before he sensed her. His fated mate, the one woman meant for him. She was down there, on an island he discovered was full of myth and legend, with a history of wrecked Viking ships, and a bridge where the locals waved to the fairies ‘for luck’ as they passed over it and visitors made wishes. A land from which, when Viktor landed as dragon on the top of the island’s only mountain, he was able to see the Seven Kingdom of this Isle of Man. The island itself. Scotland. Ireland. England. Wales. The sky. And lastly the Irish sea, ruled over by the mythical Celtic god, Manannan. Surely if any woman could accept the existence of dragon shifters, could accept him as her mate, it would be one from this unique and magical island?

Author’s Note: Beware of the very sexy & very alpha Steele brothers. These books are HOT! When Bella told her family and friends of her career choice they called her a traitor and turned their backs on her, including the brother she adored. Why? Because no one in the Zalotti family becomes a cop! Bella had never wanted any part of the family business, especially as that business was running the Italian mafia in London. She wasn’t stupid enough to join the force under her real name, but has nevertheless lived in fear of someone discovering exactly who she is and bringing that career to an abrupt end, possibly by putting her in a pine box. But it’s been five years now and she’s still alive, still a cop. Then a few weeks ago she started receiving threats, in letters and spray paint on her car. Out of desperation she calls her brother, the first time they’ve spoken in years, but Matteo denies all knowledge of any threats, and refuses to help her. Bella met Bryce Steele several weeks ago while guarding his stepsister, Jenna, after she was abducted and beaten. In fact Bryce asked Bella out on a date at the time and then didn’t show up. But Bella has done some research on Bryce since then, and she’s sure, with his ex-special forces background and underworld connections, he’s the one man who can help her discover who’s threatening her and why. Unfortunately to do that she’ll have to tell him her real name and why she believes these death threats are real. Next Book in series – ROURKE (Steele Protectors 4)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Single, charming, sophisticated and wealthy, Rourke Steele has zero interest in falling in love or having a relationship. He’d decided that long before the young and beautiful Sophie Hammond walked into his life three years ago. He has the perfect life, working for the security company owned by all six of the Steele brothers, and dating and bedding as many beautiful women as he wants. Why ruin that by settling for one woman? What does it matter if every time he sees Sophie Hammond he wants to drag her off to his bed and do wicked things to that delectable body? It just means he’s a normal red-blooded man, right? Wrong. Because when Sophie is attacked at a wedding they are both attending Rourke doesn’t hesitate to step in and defend her. To hell with his usual charm and sophistication, Sophie is his, damn it. His! Falling instantly and irrevocably in love with one of her six bosses probably wasn’t the wisest thing Sophie had ever done. It wasn’t the worst thing she had ever done either. No, that prize went to trying to sort out her father’s mess without alerting any of the Steele brothers, but most especially Rourke, to what was going on. Something that is no longer an option when she’s attacked while attending the wedding of Logan Steele, Rourke’s twin brother, and Rourke is the one who comes to her rescue. Grateful as she is for that intervention Sophie has no intention of allowing Rourke to just step in and try to take over her life. Never mind that his kisses make her head spin and her knees weak. She’s a big girl and can take care of her own mess, thank you very much. Fireworks will ignite the sky and inanimate objects fly before these two stubborn people admit to their feelings for each other. Author’s Note: Beware of the very sexy & very alpha Steele brothers.

Download or read book The Ghost Ruthless Regency Dukes 6 written by Carole Mortimer and published by Carole Mortimer. This book was released on 2024-01-31 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE GHOST (Ruthless Regency Dukes 6) is the sixth and final book in USA Today and Amazon International #1 Bestselling Author, Carole Mortimer’s, latest Regency series. Six Dukes, bound together by their friendship and loyalty. When one of them is murdered, the five friends remaining are each given the task of investigating one of the five officers suspected of being responsible for the killing. The man had been prisoner for so long he no longer had any idea whether it was night or day. The room where he was being kept was below ground and had no windows. It was bare of all comforts except for a pile of dirty and lice infected straw in one corner and a single blanket to cover himself with during the worst of the cold. He had tried, at first, to keep track of time, but as the days, weeks, months passed, they had all merged together. The monotony was broken only by the haphazard delivery of a plate of the most basic of foods and a jug of water by a surly and silent man whose clothes appeared to be as ragged as his own. The smelly bucket in the corner of the room was removed only once a week. The last thing he remembered, before waking in this hellhole, he had been deeply entrenched in the battle at Waterloo. He recalled being run through with a sword, and then struck on the head. Since then, there had only been this room, the pain as his wound oozed an unpleasant pus before finally healing, near starvation, and the bone-deep cold. At first, he had been sure his friends would find him, and he would be rescued from this living hell. But he no longer held out that hope, knowing they must all believe him to be dead. He had been abandoned, and was now forgotten. Even, it seemed, by the woman he had loved so deeply he would gladly have given his life for her. Had she mourned him? Cried for his loss? Or had she moved on when all hope had been lost? One thing he knew, when he was free, and he was determined he would escape, all who had wronged him would suffer the full measure of his fury.
