Even more unnerving for Jenna is Brent Powers, her wildly sensual personal guide, who can’t wait to put his degree in sexual psychology to work--by tapping into Jenna’s unspoken fantasies, and by allowing her to surrender her inhibitions and discover her true sense of freedom. But with the slow and steady seduction of Jenna come feelings that neither of them expected. And now where the final fantasy takes them depends on how far Jenna and Brent are really willing to go.

wrong. Worse, his attraction to her has made him lose focus in a
trial--one where she's a key witness. The more Jake resists the sparks between him and Maria, the faster his professional life collides with the personal one. When Maria becomes the town pariah, Jake must choose between the woman he loves and protecting his reputation...before it's too late. |

The Charm Stone Lillian Stewart Carl Five Star/Gale ISBN: 9781594147708 |
Jean Fairbairn's significant other, ex-Scottish cop Alasdair Cameron, might
sometimes wish he could pass judgment on the dingbats Jean writes about.
Especially when her current subjects, a set of batty conspiracy theorists, may
be involved in the theft of a Williamsburg-crafted replica of the
sixteenth-century Witch Box. It was stolen from a Scottish castle for which
Alasdair has been supervising security even though the original Witch Box is
safe in a Williamsburg museum. The charm stone went missing from the original Witch Box three hundred years ago. Perhaps it was not a traditional healing stone at all but a cursing stone. Perhaps it was lost somewhere in the colony of Virginia. Perhaps someone will kill to find it. Can Jean maintain her resolve to abandon the academic battlefield forever, or will she be tempted back into combat by an appealing former colleague, Matthew Finch? And what about Alasdair, who is supposedly retired from the rigors of law enforcement, but who is now confronted not only by a theft but two murder cases--and by Stephanie Venegas, the detective in charge. Amid the falling leaves and autumn shadows, Jean and Alasdair must deal again with murder most grotesque, its roots deep in history and myth. With ghosts only they can see. And with things going bump in the night of their own relationship. |
