    <![CDATA[Karyn Monk weaves an enchanting tale of love, mystery, and magic in her fourth historical novel, <em>The Witch and the Warrior</em>, set in the superstitious world of 13th-century Scotland. Condemned as a witch and murderess by the accusation of her own kinsman, Robert MacSween, beautiful Gwendolyn MacSween faces a fiery death at the stake, just as her mother had before her. But as the timbers of Gwendolyn's pyre are lit, rescue comes unexpectedly in the form of Mad Alex MacDunn, Laird of the MacDunns, who has sought out Gwendolyn in the hope that the witch can cure his dying son. MacDunn and his men fight their way out of the MacSween keep with Gwendolyn in tow, knowing that their actions may incite clan warfare. At the MacDunn stronghold, Gwendolyn discovers that her rescue isn't the salvation she had hoped for, as she finds herself once again under the threat of death. Though she is no witch, she must pretend to be one, for her own sake and that of the boy in her care. With only her common sense and the minor knowledge of healing she has gleaned from her dead mother's journals, Gwendolyn must save the young boy or lose her life. Her challenging task is complicated by her growing feelings for the fierce and tormented Mad Alex. <em>--Lisa Wanttaja</em>]]>

    <![CDATA[In the breathtaking tradition of <strong>Once a Warrior</strong> and <strong>The Witch and the Warrior</strong> comes Karyn Monk's passionate new tale of a distant time, a proud people--and a forbidden love.<br/><br/><strong>She was an infamous thief...</strong><br/><br/>When the ruthless MacTiers destroyed Melantha's clan, she vowed to do whatever was necessary to keep her people alive. It was a daring risk to disguise herself as &quot;the Falcon,&quot; a mysterious horseman who stole food and gold from the enemy, always slipping away unscathed. But when Melantha captured the MacTier warrior who was sent to kill her, the danger she faced was the desire aroused by this enigmatic stranger....<br/><br/><strong>...until one man stole her heart.</strong><br/><br/>Roarke had known only battle for far too long. With his family gone, he had proved his loyalty to his laird in countless conflicts, fighting with the fearless arrogance of a man who had nothing to lose--and untold rewards to gain. But murdering the enchanting spitfire who had waged her own maddening war against his clan was unthinkable. Torn between fealty to his lord and the dictates of his conscience, Roarke would look for an answer in the emerald eyes of a woman who dared to show him the meaning of honor, the bonds of family--and the power of love.]]>

    <![CDATA[From Karyn Monk, author of <strong>The Witch and the Warrior</strong> and <strong>Once a Warrior</strong>, comes an enthralling love story that is as passionate as it is suspenseful....<br/><br/>She trusted him with her life....<br/><br/>Sentenced to death, Jacqueline never expected to be rescued from her filthy cell by an unlikely visitor--a man whose disguise hid a devastatingly handsome British agent. Now the two were on the run--and for as long as he was there to protect her, she felt strangely safe....<br/><br/>But could she trust him with her heart?<br/><br/>They called him the Black Prince, and to save the unjustly condemned he took hair-raising risks, slipping in and out of courtrooms and prisons, brazenly defying the threat of capture and death. The reckless spy tried to tell himself that Jacqueline was just another prisoner to be spirited away to safety. Yet there was something about her fierce dignity, her unrelenting sense of honor, her unbreakable spirit that made him never want to let her go....<br/><br/>HE RISKED HIS LIFE TO SAVE HERS....<br/><br/>She thought she was about to die when her family's farm came under attack.  Instead, a handsome stranger rode to her rescue and took a bullet to save her.  But when the bloodshed and terror were over,Josephine Armstrong discovered that the man she owed her life to was a British soldier.  She could not betray Lt. Col. Damien Powell -- not after what he'd done for her.  But she would pay dearly for harboring the enemy, forced to prove her patriotism by becoming the rebels' most beautiful spy....<br/><br/><strong>BUT WOULD SHE GIVE HIM HER HEART IN RETURN?</strong> <br/><br/>When he saw the lovely young woman struggling with her captor, Damien didn't care which side of the bloody war she was on.  He only knew that he had never seen such an incredible mixture of extraordinary beauty and raw courage in his life.  Yet Damien couldn't know that one day this innocent farm girl was destined to betray him.  She would become Charles Town's most irresistible spy, dazzling officers with her charms even as she stripped them of strategic secrets.  But when a twist of fate brings Josephine back into his life again, Damien will gamble everything on the chance that he can make this exquisite rebel surrender...if only in his arms. --&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong>Love was never part of his plan...then again, neither was she&#8230;<br/><br/></strong>Seafaring Scotsman Jack Kent has enjoyed his share of trysts with bored society wives, but pleasure--not love--has always been his aim. Until the day he finds his carriage--and his life--invaded by a disheveled American heiress. Even rumpled and torn, nothing can hide Amelia Belford&#8217;s enchanting beauty or her fiery will to be free. And for the first time Jack is faced with a woman who arouses in him something more than desire.<br/><br/>Amelia never dreamed her desperate flight from an arranged marriage would find her scrambling out of a church window, landing in a tangle of twigs, and finally darting into the carriage of a stranger. And she never imagined she&#8217;d then set sail for his ancestral home--and discover passion in his arms. But Amelia is not the only one with a scandal to her credit. She soon senses pain behind Jack&#8217;s caresses--secrets he will not reveal. Just as she breaks through his reserve, a devastating scheme forces them apart. Could the same adventurous spirit that brought them together also be their undoing?  Only the truth--and one more impetuous act of courage--will tell.]]>
