Hi Chamen. I think what your looking for his Sarah Morgan's The Sheikh's Virgin Princess. Only thing it wasn't an aunt, but an uncle who ruined her public image. I liked the book. Hope it's the same what you're looking for.

Hi, I don't know if you found the book, but I feel what you're looking for is Kate Walker's The Greek's Unwilling Wife. The hero, Andreas kicked out his wife Rebecca on their wedding day suspecting her of infidelity when he received anonymous photographs of her with a man. His PA calls Rebecca when he meets with the accident and is calling for her. I remember it because it's one of my favorites.

Tesa | 2 comments Phew!the book I am looking for is 20 years old give or take. The hero takes the heroine to spain, I think when her father passes away. (He's her guardian I think) There's a jealous woman involved who takes her for a horseback ride and leaves her out in the heat. He finds her of course! He is a matador, decides to take a bullhorn in his mouth, she can't handle it, flies back home to her estate, she finds out she's pregnant and calls his estate the housekeeper gets real upset ( housekeeper adored her) ,the original flight she missed to take her home crashed so everyone thought she was dead. He goes to her, happy ending. =( well happy ending IF I could remember the book title !!
I remember the hero must be older than the Herione, her father invited him to dinner one night (she was about 12 or so) so the two would meet, and he brought a date and the Herione got cheeky with him, so he bent her over his knee to paddle her. I remember she played Piano.

Vintage (vintagesedona) | 312 comments Literally behind the door?


message 2809: by willaful (new)

willaful | 344 comments Fahee, did you mean "closed door"? That's the usual term for a book in which sex is implied but not depicted.

Se Mcgregor | 550 comments Fahee wrote: "Can anyone suggest some best harlequin present and superromance which has sex behind the door. thanks in advance"

Fahee - If you like Harlequin Presents with "less" sex scenes perhaps look at Helen Brooks books. Generally, she leaves any "relations" till right near the end, after the couple are married. Bedroom scenes could be described as "fade to black" kinda like Carol and Mike Brady ;) The Billionaire's Marriage Mission OR His Christmas Bride OR A Convenient Proposal

Either that or the Harlequin Romance line (one level below Desire)


message 2811: by Fahee (new)

Fahee | 13 comments Yeah.. closed door. sorry

The Boss's Valentine by Lynne Graham is the only one that comes to mind from the Presents line


message 2814: by boogenhagen (new)

boogenhagen | 306 comments In HPlandia, the early books from about 1 to 700 or so are almost all closed door except for punishing kisses of course.

HRtopia you will be good up until about 1987 or so. Try Betty Neels, Mary Burchell, Anne Hampson, early Anne Mather, Charlotte Lamb on the HR side, and Rachel Lindsay/Roberta Leigh.

Margaret Rome, Anne Weale and Rosalind Brett are also all almost closed door up until the eighties.

Shan | 3 comments Hello!

I hope I'm posting this properly - if not, I apologize as I'm a total newbie here. :)

There is a book I'm searching for that I hope someone knows...

The heroine lives somewhere in England and is this down-to-earth, boring school teacher who agrees to take her Italian friend's place, pretend to be her and fly to Italy to visit the friend's dying Nona in exchange for the friend to pay for the medical help her mom/grandma needs. The heroine and her friend (Rosa? Francesca?) look so much alike they can pass for each other and the heroine is able to speak fluent Italian. The Hero is the alpha of the family and treats the heroine very coldly thinking she's the same, spoiled brat she was when she was younger...but then warms to her. Before leaving for Italy, Hero discovers Heroine's deception after having sex with her on her last night there (h was a virgin and he knew the friend was not). She flies back to England in lots of angst...and so on and so forth.

In the end, turns out the heroine is related to the family via Nona's sister Chiara.

Does this ring a bell for anyone? Would love to know the title. :) Thanks in advance!

Tesa,
I am pretty sure the book you are looking for is: Arranged Marriage by Brittany Young ,it was a Silhouette Romance published in 1982.The back cover says:
:She had loved him since childhood
When Analisa Durant was informed by her dying father that he had promised her in marriage to Rafael Santiago-the son of his old friend, the Spanish Don Jose-she could not gainsay him. She rememberd all too well the dashing young man she had hopelessly loved when she was a child of ten.
But now Analisa was a woman who had to ask herself if she could remain the wife of a man who recklessly denied her strongest feelings. Would he ever love her enough to listen to the heart that he so firmly claimed as his own?"

I think it's The Devil's Arms by Charlotte Lamb


message 2824: by Shan (new)

Shan | 3 comments Hello again! I have one more book that I'm trying to find...it's definitely an older book, I think.

Plot: As a young teen/adult the h was madly infatuated with the H, who I think was her music tutor. She made a pass at him (he was dating some catty woman) which somehow or other led to him getting in to an accident that cost him his sight and was this long road to recovery. She ultimately flees and grows up. He somehow was seeking to hire someone and in temptation to see him and believing that he's blind, she interviews. He's not really blind, but pretends to be and then he somehow forces her into marriage and is all kinds of mean to her because he believes she left him.

I remember that towards the end as she decides to leave the marriage (believing he was out seeing that catty ex because he insinuated to her as much), he catches her and in the process of her fighting him off, she hits his head and worries about his sight and then she breaks down in tears and then there's all that emotional resolution and then HEA. :)

message 2827: by Serena (new)

Serena Ulloa | 5 comments Hello I am still looking for a book that was either harlequin or silhouette. I think I read it in the late 80's early 90's. It was survival/ wilderness treck theme. The unique things I can remember is that the H gives the h some type of temporary ring. At the end of the book the father and boyfriend/ fiancé of the h arrive in a plane to get the h back home. She either hides or takes off the ring the H gave her because she panics and this causes the H to think she wants to return to her boyfriend/fiance


message 2828: by P (new)

P (paolamhc8) | 6 comments Hello! Ok this one I barely remember the whole plot. But the h family is in financial trouble and she has younger siblings. The H wants her, but doesn't want any kind of commitment. The h is caught climbing a tree by the H who by then has befriended the family. I think h gets sick and when H looks after her they start making out. the family catches them and the H assures them they got carried away because h just accepted his proposal. They get married but H has intimacy issues and his jealous of an old family friend. h finds out she's pregnant and decides to leave to think things over. the ending i think is that she comes back and is surprised that the house she had wanted all along , H has been restoring.

Any ideas on the title or author?

not a harlequin romance. It's be ElizAbeth Powers and it's called 'Melting her heart'

RomLibrary | 260 comments Looking for three presents

1. She is being kept on an island by the hero and escapes on fisherman's boat. This is an older book

2. Heroine arrives at Hero's office soaking wet from a rainstorm to ask for a favor or maybe a loan. He forces her to either marry him or be his mistress. This is an older book

3. Heroine is either in greece or italy and gets stranded. Hero arrives in an old pick up truck and they almost have sex in the pickup. I think he was pretending to be poor.

Thanks.
