Romance Books

Continuing on with our romance theme, here are some selections that I have taken from the shelves and compared them to others you may like.

WILD WEST:


When Chief Eagle Wolf leaves his Owl Clan behind to protect them from the smallpox he's contracted, he doesn't know if he will live or die. The scales are tipped by a beautiful white woman who nurses him back to health and then captures his heart.







 1756. Traveling west of the colonies with a small party, Shannon O'Shea loses her way in the wilderness, soon drenched by driving rains and forced by powerful winds into the shelter of a cave. Stripping quickly, she is drawn to the flickering warmth of a fire deep within, but she stops cold--surely she must be dreaming. Before her stands a Cherokee brave, tall and broad-shouldered, scarcely clothed. Storm Dancer whispers that she knew him once. . .long ago. He vows to keep her safe. By morning, he seems to vanish, yet Storm Dancer will remain with Shannon, in every way a flesh-and-blood man who awakens her every womanly longing. For their spirits call to each other. . .



MILITARY/SPECIAL OPS:


Navy SEAL Clint “Iceman” McIntire didn't earn his nickname by being a coward. Or a quitter. Having crushed an infamous drug cartel in Colombia, Clint was nothing short of an American hero. Now he's home, on a much-needed leave, but instead of some R&R, he finds himself neck-deep in trouble with his best friend's little sister, Morganna Chavez, the only woman who has the power to bring him to his knees. . .







A sexy black-ops hero and a beautiful ER nurse must fight for their lives - and for a love they never thought possible.
