Nina Crespo presents Wedding Matilda by Heather Hiestand
Orphaned as a boy, Ewan Hales is proud to make his living as secretary to the manager at Redcake’s Tea Shop. But the startling news that he’s heir to the Earl of Fitzwalter changes everything. While tendering his resignation to lovely Matilda Redcake, however, Ewan is struck by her spirit, the luscious bow of her lips—and a realization. Matilda might not marry a working man—but will she wed a future nobleman?
Ewan’s unruly hair and roguish kisses are tempting, but Matilda has far too many problems to consider romance. With sabotage at a cake factory threatening the family empire, she must focus her considerable willpower on keeping Redcake’s from ruin—until she learns that her young son has been kidnapped. Together, she and Ewan must uncover the truth before they can savor the sweet freedom of love…

Nina Crespo presents Love, Lattes and Danger by Sandra Cox
It’s a dirty job, but some mutant’s got to do it…
Joel Eisler is a mutant with special talents. He can detect an oil leak in the ocean simply by tasting the water. Because of this unique ability, he’s been purchased by a large oil company, along with his dolph sister, Amy. The upside of spending his days and nights in the ocean is that it gives him the opportunity to save the lives of his brother dolphins. The downsides are life as a closely monitored slave—and that he can’t be with Piper, the dolph-girl he loves…
To make matters worse, Joel discovers the lab he grew up in has extracted his sperm and Piper’s egg and created a baby, and his handler, Craven, is plotting to kidnap Amy for more experiments. Now Joel must rescue the infant, bring her to Piper, and find a way to save Amy. And if that’s not enough of a challenge, he needs to convince Piper she belongs with him instead of her all-too-human boyfriend—if Craven doesn’t get to them first…

Nina Crespo presents An Oath Sworn by Diana Cosby
Bound by honor to save a country they love …
The bastard daughter of the French king, Marie Alesia Serouge has just
one chance at freedom when she escapes her captor in the Scottish
highlands. A mere pawn in a scheme to destroy relations between France
and Scotland, Marie must reach her father and reveal the Englishmen’s
treacherous plot. But she can’t abandon the wounded warrior she stumbles
upon—and she can’t deny that his fierce masculinity, Scottish or not,
stirs something wild inside her.
Colyne MacKerran is on a mission for his king, and he’s well aware that
spies are lying in wait for him everywhere. Wounded en route, he escapes
his attackers and is aided by an alluring Frenchwoman…whose explanation
for her presence in the Highlands rings false. Even if she saved his
life, he cannot trust her with his secrets. But he won’t leave her to the mercy of brigands, either—and as they race for the coast, he can’t help but wonder if her kiss is as passionate as she is.
With nothing in common but their honor, Colyne and Marie face a dangerous journey to safety through the untamed Scottish landscape—and their own reckless hearts…
