Northern Winters Are Murder
Another freezing winter descends in seeming peace upon the Northern Ontario lake where realtor Belle Palmer lives genteelly with her dog, tropical fishes and classic film collection. But the snow-laden tranquillity is tragically disturbed when a good friend is lost in a freak snowmobile accident on an isolated lake. Or so it seems. Belle and others suspect foul play, but a motive and a criminal prove hard to find. Resort owners, anti-environmentalists and the new local drug dealers may all have had reason to want Jim Burian quietly removed, and information isn't forthcoming. Belle is determined to find out what happened to this decent man, but she is shocked when she discovers what twisted roots underlie this savage crime on idyllic northern ice.
Big Wonderful Thing
The story of Texas is the story of struggle and triumph in a land of extremes. It is a story of drought and flood, invasion and war, boom and bust, and of the myriad peoples who, over centuries of conflict, gave rise to a place that has helped shape the identity of the United States and the destiny of the world. “I couldn’t believe Texas was real,” the painter Georgia O’Keeffe remembered of her first encounter with the Lone Star State. It was, for her, “the same big wonderful thing that oceans and the highest mountains are.” Big Wonderful Thing invites us to walk in the footsteps of ancient as well as modern people along the path of Texas’s evolution. Blending action and atmosp...
Border Bride
The New York Times–bestselling author “weaves a fascinating tale that incorporates Scottish history into an emotionally moving and realistic love story” (Affaire de Coeur). Lady Alpin MacKay is in despair when she learns that, in one tyrannical, sweeping gesture, the Scottish lord Malcolm Kerr has stolen her property. Determined to reclaim her home from her childhood nemesis, she storms Kildalton Castle with a scheme to take back what’s hers. When the beautiful Alpin arrives on Malcolm’s doorstep declaring her land—and herself—as his for the taking, he’s thrilled. At last, he has her under his thumb, right where he wants her. But as Malcolm plots his revenge, and Alpin conspires to trick him into forfeiting her land, neither of them plans for the flame of passion that ignites between them. “Arnette Lamb ignites readers’ imaginations with her unforgettable love stories.” —RT Book Reviews
The Thistle and the Brier
Scotland and Southern Appalachia have always shared a strong connection. Many of the first people to permanently settle in the Appalachian mountains came from the Scottish highlands seeking religious and other freedoms. Many descendants of those first settlers from Scotland still make their homes in Southern Appalachia and attribute many aspects of their culture to their Scottish heritage. This book explores the parallels and connections between Scotland and Southern Appalachia, with special attention to the interplay between revivals of folk culture, native languages, and dialects in Scotland and Appalachia since the 1970s. It covers contemporary Scottish and Appalachian cultural movements, particularly the links between cultural revivals and identity politics, and contains substantial references that increase its value as an authoritative scholarly work on the convergence of the cultures.

Border Lord
“An excellent tale of high adventure. Colorful characters come alive against a backdrop of espionage and intrigue (Sherrilyn Kenyon, #1 New York Times–bestselling author). Lady Miriam MacDonald comes to Scotland seeking peace between the Scots and the English—instead, she gets the admiration of two men. The kindly, awkward laird of Kildalton Castle becomes a trusted friend, but the dashing and mysterious Border Lord, disguised by midnight’s cloak, becomes much, much more. Behind Duncan Kerr’s disguise is a lifetime of anguish. Relinquishing his birthright as laird of Kildalton for the role of Border Lord could cost him his future, but Duncan knows that if his true identity is discovered by the beautiful Lady Miriam, he will lose the thing he holds most dear—her heart. “Arnette Lamb has a tremendous gift for writing genuine, warm, humorous, sensual love stories. Border Lord is stupendous!” —RT Book Reviews “Fun . . . Paced at breakneck speed. What makes this book special are the main characters . . . A strong liberated lady trying to negotiate for peace between the warring factions [and a hero that’s like] Zorro with a Scots burr.” —Romance Heart to Heart
