Neri | 74 comments Anybody remember a story that opens with the h being rescued from some stone prison in a garden by the H? She had been kidnapped. Another thing I remember is that H had a nickname for her like "Duchess." Sorry for the vagueness!

Neri, Sounds a bit like Prince of Lies by Robyn Donald.

Because it is! Thank you so much. I remembered how chilled & tense the opening made me feel but nothing else. Thank you, thank you, thank you again!

This is the Harlequin Presents Readers book search. None of the books are YA.

I'm not sure I'd recommend it (I mean, I love it, but I wouldn't recommend it), but Maggie's Dad by Diana Palmer fits the bill.


message 6168: by Poorvi (new)

Poorvi | 302 comments Hi All,
Please help me find this book. I don't remember much. The hero/heroine has someone trying to do something bad to them. Either damage his/her/both their reputations or stalk either or both of them etc. The heroine also has a sister who has a teenaged or pre-teen daughter. Mid way through the book they (the sister and daughter; I don't remember if there was also a husband and father) move away to a different country.

Plot points I'm not fully sure of:
1. The heroine's niece may have actually been her daughter that her sister adopted
2. the heroine may have been a widow, whose late husband owned a business with his brother. Now that the husband is dead the heroine (who inherited her husband's share) and her BIL are business partners.

This sounds like 2 different books.
The first reminds me of one I've read, but can't remember the name of.

Could the second be The Mistress Deception The Mistress Deception by Susan Napier ?

Victoria N | 33 comments Hi guys! I read on older HP once and i liked it, but unfortunately i dont remember names so i cant find it now. So sad..
The plot is like the hero is some friend of business partner of heroine's dad, kinda older and likes the heroine on sight.
I remember a scene when they make out in the heroine's room or balcony and the hero is set on seducing her and pursues her intensely. I hope someone can help me:)
Thank you!

Poorvi | 302 comments Hi guys, please help me find this book.
I don't remember much. Towards the end, the hero and heroine are in love and planning to get married, and the hero gifts the heroine a gorgeous wedding dress. While he is away for some reason, she finds out he betrayed her in some way (I think she thinks he's cheating), but some very definitive way. So she goes to the place where the gown is stored, cuts it to pieces and leaves him. She gives him some flimsy reason, but he realises there's more to the story when he finds out about the dress. That's all I remember.

Evangeline Raj | 2 comments Hi everyone, I'm new here, but have been reading Harlequin and M&B for many years. I need your help to remember this old one I read many years ago. The details are a bit fuzzy. It's a vintage, probably from the 70's. It's about a rich H who builds or has a grotto (or garden) made on his land and then professes his love to the h, but get rebuffed. I can't recall any more than that, I'm afraid. Thank you in advance!


message 6180: by Shine (last edited Dec 09, 2022 06:28AM) (new)

Shine | 19 comments Hey, I wanted to know the name of this book. In this novel, the hero and his friend are doing a sailing or a boating race and the friend is jealous of the hero and tries to drown them. The friend dies but the hero ends up at the hospital. He asks for his ex or estranged wife and doesn't talk to anybody else. The heroine gets the news of the accident in her workplace and goes to the hero. The hero threatens to leave and hurt himself if the heroine doesn't stay with him. Then the h and H stay in the H's castle or country house. They also go to the dead friends funeral. The hero is angry with the friend because I think the friend would have something to do with the heroines departure. The hero wants to win the heroine back. The hero also thinks that the h's friend and coworker is attracted to her and that ends up being true. The hero might have been Italian and his friends name marco or matteo or something like that
I'd really appreciate the book's name. Thank you.

Hi Rom,

Thank you for responding, but that's not the book I read. Appreciate the help, though!

tinted_tictac | 5 comments Hi, trying to remember the title of a HP.

Secret baby story. She lives on a remote island, Scotland maybe? She met the hero while showing him the property. He was also a virgin.

tinted_tictac | 5 comments Hi, another HP secret baby story I can’t remember the title of.

The H and h first met during the summer when they were younger, he’s royal and visits the beach town every year. She is from a very religious family (father a pastor?). They meet secretly, she gets pregnant and her family disowned her. She sends him a letter. Letter gets intercepted and they send her money instead.

They meet again years later when he finds out about his daughter.

message 6190: by Shine (new)

Shine | 19 comments Hey, I just remembered about this book. The hero is a sheikh or a prince of a desert kingdom. The heroine is a foreigner who is attached to the kingdom. She would have gotten the love for the kingdom from her grandfather who was probably an archaeologist. The heroine anonymously donates an important book to the kingdom. The hero calls the heroine back to write a caption or something for the book. He acts like he doesn't know who donated the book but knows it's her. The heroine struggles to accept that she is a native and thinks that she's an outsider to the kingdom. She wears a hijab and all. She tries to enter the kingdom conspicuously but the hero finds out about it.
I'd really like the name of this book. Thanks in advance.

Se Mcgregor | 550 comments Looking for a sheikh book, no more than 10 years old. H is having affair with h who is not suitable for him to marry. Main thing I recall is that h leaves the H because he won't/can't marry her.

On his wedding day he is talking to his friend who is asking who he is marrying - you're getting married in a couple of hours and we don't know who the bride is? Turns out, H put out news he was getting married to entice h to come back. She arrives to stop the wedding and he tells her she is his chosen bride.

Lucy | 35 comments Im looking for a book I read in the 80s. The only thing I remember is that the h couldn’t talk because se had an injury in her neck and always used scarves to hide it. The H found her in bed with her sister’s husband and she couldn’t defend herself because she couldn’t talk.

Enjoy!

Kevin - I'm thinking of a couple of series which might fit what you are looking for. The House of Karedes series was followed by another "connected" series called Dark-Hearted Desert Men, the first in this series might be the one you are looking for. https://www.goodreads.com/series/5988... otherwise, I'll try to locate the other series I was thinking of

Hi. Is it 'The Desert King's Virgin Bride' - Sharon Kendrick. Part of 'The Desert Princes' trilogy?


message 6199: by Poorvi (new)

Poorvi | 302 comments @Kevin could it be Olivia Gates' The Illegitimate King? It's the last of the Castaldini Crown trilogy.


message 6200: by Poorvi (new)

Poorvi | 302 comments Hi all,
please help me find these two books with similar themes:

1. The heroine is forced to marry the hero by her father. She agrees because she sees it as a way of escaping her father's influence. After the marriage, they attend a party hosted by the hero's friend/business associate. She escapes from there but the hero finds her within a few days.

2. The hero is to marry the heroine's stereotypically good looking sister, but she runs away a few days before the wedding. The heroine's father makes her take the sister's place. She agrees because the father is a misogynist jerk and does not value the heroine's and does not let her participate in the business even though she is very intelligent and highly educated. She hopes the hero would be different. The hero knows that it's the heroine he's marrying but does not protest during the wedding. Afterwards he tells her she's not the bride he chose. (He chose the sister because with her he expected a practical relationship with no emotional attachment).
