    Once Upon a Christmas Past by Catherine Kean, Brenda Jernigan, Paula Quinn, and Regan Walker

    Genre Historical Romance Anthology

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R

    NY Times, USA Today, and Bestselling Authors present Once Upon a Christmas Past, four books of Christmas and Love.

    A Secret Scottish Christmas by Regan Walker

    Spies, Scots, and Shipmasters celebrate a very secret Christmas in Scotland as identical twins, Robbie and Nash Powell, spies for the Crown, compete for the love of the daughter of an Aberdeen shipbuilder.

    A Highlander for Christmas by Paula Quinn

    As the bard of the MacGregor clan, Finlay Grant is a natural-born charmer. He can easily win the heart of any lass… but somehow, the right words to express his love for stunning Leslie Harrison have eluded him. Yet as Christmastide approaches, Finn knows he must find a way to propose to the raven-haired beauty who has stolen his heart.

    A Knight’s Redemption by Catherine Kean

    Six Christmases ago, after refusing his kiss, Lady Mary Westbrook was locked in the dungeon by Lord Holden Kendall, a squire at Branton Keep. When an attempted child abduction days before Christmas brings Holden back to the castle, Mary must confront again what happened between them.

    Holden is a grown warrior now, and he resolves to not only make matters right with Mary but finally win her kiss. Yet, as peril ensues, Mary must risk far more than a chance at love.

    Christmas in Camelot by Brenda Jernigan

    Sir Nicholas the Dragon’s orders are clear. He is to fend off the enemy besieging Noelle’s castle and bring the lady safely back to Camelot for her wedding day to Sir Gavin. But spending time with the proud beauty awakens an irresistible hunger in Nicholas. Now, as desire does battle with duty, Nicholas has only two choices — to surrender the woman he loves to another man or fight to the end to make her his own.

    A Witch in Time by Catherine Kean

    Genre Time Travel Romance

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG

    Welcome to Cat’s Paw Cove, Florida—an enchanting seaside town and favorite tourist destination. But there’s something unusual about the locals, both human and feline. The popular Shipwreck Museum might just take you back in time, and the historic Sherwood House holds secrets, old and new.
    Adopt a furever friend at the Cove Cat Café, treat yourself to a psychic reading at Eye of Newt metaphysical shop, pick up a special trinket from Black Cat Antiquities. And don’t be surprised if you find your heart in the magic of Cat’s Paw Cove.
    In a violent storm in 1645, Colin Wilshire’s Barbados-bound ship is swept off course. He’s sure he and his pregnant bride are fated to drown when he’s tossed into the sea. He wakes in a strange land and is saved by a blue-haired angel.
    Twenty-first-century witch and cat rescuer Luna Halpern has fallen for more than her share of unsuitable guys—including one with a long-distance fiancé, and another who was more interested in other dudes than in Luna. Finally, a safe, drama-free guy is interested in her, and she’s confident that she’ll muster up an attraction to him. When she stumbles upon a handsome, mysterious man who speaks oddly, seems not to know where he is, or even what century it is, her first instinct is to help him.
    Certain he’s either stuck in a crazy dream or in limbo between life and death, Colin stays close to Luna. As his feelings for her grow, he’s forced to choose between his obligations in the past and his hopes for the future.

    Shadow’s Edge by Jami Gray

    Everyone fears what hunts in the shadows—especially the monsters…
    It takes a monster to hunt one, and Raine McCord, forged in the maelstrom of magic and science, is the one for the job. In a world where the supernatural shares a shadowy existence with the mundane, a series of disappearances and deaths threatens the secrecy of her kind and suggests someone knows the monsters are alive and kicking.
    Partnering with the sexy and tantalizing Gavin Durand proves to be as challenging and dangerous as the prey she hunts. When the trail leads back to the foundation, which warped Raine’s magic as a child, her torturous past raises its ugly head.
    Gavin and Raine sift through a maze of lies, murder, and betrayal, to discover not only each other, but the emerging threat to them and the entire magical community.
    ***This revised edition contains the Kyn short story, SUBMERGED IN SHADOWS***A Knight's Vengeance by Catherine Kean #FreeBookFriday #ReadTreasures from the deep come in all shapes and sizes…
    Forced on an unwanted vacation, Raine McCord soon discovers that boredom is the least of her worries when danger washes ashore, bringing unexpected complications.

Now rocked by grief and grappling with the emotional fallout, her world is thrown deeper into chaos by a series of unexplained events, each one marked by an escalating violence.

Months earlier she ignited his protective instincts and curiosity as she’s the one woman he can’t read. Now her call provides the perfect opportunity to set siege to her wary heart. Before he can breech the scars of her past, he enters a dangerous game against an enemy whose motives and obsessions blur Wolf’s line between justice and revenge.

    Mack the Wife by Debby Conrad

    Mackenzie O’Brien believes the only way her overprotective brothers will stay out of her life and find loves of their own is if she is married and settled. When an old love returns to town, Mackenzie is anxious to see if she and Grady Sullivan can pick up where they left off.
    Grady tries to fight his attraction to Mackenzie. He wants nothing to do with the spoiled little rich girl who broke his heart years ago or her ridiculous marriage scheme. He’s a cop, living on a cop’s salary and she is way out of his league. And besides, her brothers hate him.
    But Mackenzie won’t take no for an answer—until Grady suspects one or more of her brothers may be guilty of murder. Then she has no choice but to reconsider her plans. Because when it comes to family, the O’Briens stick together, even if it means giving up on love.
