Carolina Cunningham is not the woman she pretends to be. As owner of the Queen of Diamonds Saloon, she hides her innocence behind a tough exterior, and she has no time for a gunslinger turned sheriff who’s only interested in killing. And in her. O’Malley is in town for one reason only—to kill Little Billy Gaither, the notorious outlaw and murderer. Falling in love with Carolina only makes things more complicated, since she’s number one on Billy’s hitlist. Somehow O’Malley’s got to keep her alive, kill the monstrous Billy, and talk her into lowering her defenses. They could be happy together, if Carolina will just give it a chance. And if Little Billy Gaither doesn’t kill them first.
Malcolm MacLaren has come to the small Scottish island of St. Columba for one reason—revenge. He hasn’t counted on a beautiful, fairy-like widow to haunt his footsteps, a woman so irresistible that he could almost forget his reason for being there. Ailie Spens is an old soul. She dances barefoot in the moonlight, floats like a fey creature among the relatives who try to rule her life and does her best to convince everyone she is half-mazed. And she knows when a man is under an enchantment. He walked from the sea, terrifying the townspeople, and everyone knows he must be a selkie, a man on land and a seal in the icy North Atlantic. But Ailie knows he has come for her, to rescue her from the stifling future her relatives have deemed proper. Now she simply has to convince him to take her with him when he returns to the deep, dark sea.
Viscount Rohan is a very bad man. Leader of the notorious Heavenly Host, he steers the dissolute and pleasure-seeking aristocracy in their revels. Content in his wickedness, he knows there is no room for a starchy, brave English spinster in his self-indulgent existence, but his body disagrees. Elinor Harriman is so intent on protecting her baby sister and their dying mother that she doesn’t realize the danger she’s in. The notorious Viscount Rohan could have no interest in someone like her, thank God, and no idea that she melts with longing every time he touches her. She’s an intelligent, plain woman, and his tempting, his teasing has to be some kind of joke. But Rohan takes his appetites very seriously, and sensible or not, he wants Elinor Harriman in his bed. There is only one problem with indulging himself–he’s starting to want her in his life as well. And that would destroy everything.
The Gunslinger... Mad Billy Maddox, aka the Angel of Death, comes to the tiny town in Johnson County, Wyoming as a gun for hire to scare away the settlers.

She’s learned not to let anything scare her, but the way Will Maddox looks at her shakes her up far worse than her husband’s heavy fists. She knows she should hate him, but she can’t. Together... He’s a bad man, and she’s a good woman. There’s no future for them in the wild Wyoming territory. But Maddox is a man who gets what he wants, no matter how high the price, and he wants Sara.

Emma Milsom thought a job with director/playwright Teddy Winters would help her put her life back together. She hadn’t counted on the presence of British actor Sebastian Brand in the dilapidated old theater. Sebastian was the foremost actor in horror films, adept at playing monsters of every sort, and his behavior in real life wasn’t much of an improvement. Rumors of accidents and death followed him, and Emma should have had enough sense to keep her distance. But Sebastian was mesmerizing, and just as obsessed with her. As the accidents began to escalate, Emma didn’t know whom to trust. She just knew it shouldn’t be Sebastian. Was he trying to seduce her, or kill her? Or perhaps both. (Previously published in a Silhouette Shadows anthology)
Emma O’Bannion has a crush on the mysterious Frenchman who lives above her, and for Valentine’s Day she decides to be his secret admirer. There’s one problem—Luc is a retired agent, and sees danger everywhere, particularly in a bouquet of roses and a box of poisoned chocolates. It’s easy enough for him to discover who’s stalking him, easy for him to kidnap her and find out exactly who she’s working for. Except that apparently her only motive is a misplaced crush. Too bad that he’s starting to feel the same way.
Take one high-flying, forties-loving heiress looking for her missing sister, add one hardboiled private detective who has his feet planted firmly in this century, add a priceless stolen sculpture, blackmail, disorganized crime, organized gangsters, and a very rich father, and you have the makings of a very bad day for two people who have nothing in common. Sally MacArthur is desperate to find her kidnapped sister, so desperate that she hires James Diamond, even though he’s all business and thinks she’s seen too many Humphrey Bogart movies. James knows he should turn down the job—Sally has trouble written all over her—but there’s something about the case that’s making it impossible for him to say no. And there’s something about Sally, too, although he never gets involved with a client. That kind of stuff is for the movies, not real life. A chase through Northern California wasn’t what he had in mind, particularly since he can’t keep that mind off his troublesome employer. But a man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do. And Sally MacArthur is just too tempting. Asking for Trouble... Sometimes trouble is just what you need. (Previously published as Chasing Trouble)
