VIKING WARRIOR, UNWILLING WIFE by MICHELLE STYLES


Title: Viking Warrior, Unwilling Wife
Author: Michelle Styles
Line: Mills and Boon Historical Romance
Release month: June 2008


The S-Factor: Simmering

Back-Blurb:

The warrior’s conquest

With the war drums echoing in her ears, and the sharp northern light glinting off the sharpened swords, Sela stood with trepidation on the shoreline. The dragon ships full of warriors had come, ready for battle and glory.

But it wasn’t the threat of conquest that shook Sela to the core. It was the way her heart responded to the proud face and chiselled body of Vikar Hrutson, jaarl, leader of the invading force – and Sela’s ex-husband!

Review:

From Michelle Styles’ terrific pen comes a passionate, romantic, exciting and fast-paced historical romance which will leave you breathless: Viking Warrior, Unwilling Wife.

Four years ago, Sela had walked out on her husband, even though she was carrying his child – a child he knows nothing about till this very day. Having returned home to her father, Bose the Dark, Sela had hoped to start afresh and to put her husband behind her. But every time she looks into her son’s eyes, she finds herself reliving the passion which she had found in her husband’s arms.

But Sela has got more on her mind than her former husband. Her father is at death’s door and dragon ships full of enemy warriors are approaching her home – and leading them is her former husband Vikar!

Vikar is still as handsome as ever and when he spots his former wife, he has only one thing on his mind – seduction!

Whether she’s writing about Vikings, Gladiators or Victorians, Michelle Styles has an uncanny ability of making each and every historical period her own! In her latest historical, she has once again delivered a full-bodied engrossing tale readers will just not be able to put down.

Hot Nights with a Playboy by Nicola Marsh


Title: Hot Nights with the Playboy
Author: Nicola Marsh
Line: Mills and Boon Modern Heat
Release month: June 2008
The S-Factor:Simmering
Back-Blurb:

Working by day…

Abby Weiss could make her name as a stylist to the stars on a two-week photo shoot in a tropical island paradise. Even better, Judd Calloway, her best friend, will be the photographer. Nothing could be more fun than working with him…

Naughty by night!
…except spending hot, sexy, passionate nights with him! In the years since they last met Judd’s become a charming, muscled, gorgeous hunk! Abby can’t keep her hands off him – and the attraction’s mutual. And now Judd’s got a proposal that he hopes will keep her right where he wants her: in his bed!

Review: If you’re looking for a romance that’s hot, sexy, modern and utterly delicious, then you’ll love Nicola Marsh’s latest Modern Heat: Hot Nights with a Playboy!

As children, Abby Weiss and Judd Calloway had been the best of friends who had bonded over their screwed up parents, miserable childhoods and their desire to get as far away from small town Australia as possible. As teenagers, their friendship almost developed into something more, but Abby and Judd had pulled back at the very last minute, and although they’re still the very best of friends that spark of dangerous attraction still sizzles between the two of them!

Now, Abby and Judd have been thrown in close proximity together on a tropical island for a two-week photo shoot. Seeing her best friend in a tight pair of swimming trunks and his toned torso glistening under the sizzling sun only increase Abby’s desire for Judd. But while Judd makes it clear that he’s more than willing to have her in his bed, he is adamant that theirs will be a no-strings sexual affair.

But, the more time Judd spends with Abby, the more he realizes that commitment is beginning to like a whole lot of fun!

I adore Nicola Marsh’s stories because even though they are fresh, feel-good, flirty and modern, they still have that deep, emotional core that will ensure that readers of all ages will enjoy reading her stories. Featuring a sexy hero, a lovely heroine and plenty of drama, laughs and humour, Hot Nights with a Playboy is the perfect book to pack in your beach bag this summer!
